Effects of genetic drift in a small population of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua kildinensis Derjugin) landlocked in a meromictic lake: genetic variation and conservation measures
2016-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Landlocked populations of normally salt-water, bottom-dwelling Atlantic cod exist in a few circumpolar meromictic lakes. One such population, the Kildin cod, inhabits Mogilnoe Lake (Kildin Island, the Barents Sea) that is listed among regional nature reserves. The lake has three main strata of water of about 5 m each: an upper level with nearly fresh water, a saline layer, and an anaerobic zone at the bottom. The...
