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 line...
