Abstract excerpt
We investigated the relationships between allozyme genotypes at nine polymorphic loci and survival in a natural population of the bivalve Spisula ovalis sampled on three occasions (1993, 1994, and 1995) in three different sites (2855 individuals analyzed). This species displays annual growth lines allowing identification of annual cohorts. Therefore we could avoid cohort mixing, a frequent bias in such studies,...
