Abstract excerpt
To elucidate the colonization of freshwater fish into Norway following the last deglaciation of Europe 10,000 years ago, we have performed a survey using mitochondrial DNA variation (20 populations) and multilocus DNA fingerprinting (14 populations) of the widely distributed perch (Perca fluviati...
