Allozyme variation in Atlantic salmon from the British Isles: associations with geography and the environment
Data on geographical variation in allele frequencies at enzyme coding loci in Atlantic salmon from the British Isles were collated from published and unpublished sources. Statistically significant differences in allele frequencies were found among samples both within and among river systems, suggest...
