Microsatellites reveal clear genetic boundaries among Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar) populations from the Barents and White seas, northwest Russia
Fourteen microsatellite loci were employed to study the genetic structure of 34 Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) populations from the White and Barents seas area, the last major European region where the species has remained in its natural state. The populations were separated into four distinct clus...
