Protein variation in wild Atlantic salmon, with particular reference to southern Ireland
The extent of genetic variation in wild Atlantic salmon parr, Sulmo salur L., from river systems in Ireland, Iceland and eastern Canada, was investigated using starch gel electrophoresis. Within Ireland, seven polymorphic enzyme loci ( sAAT‐4 *, GPI‐1 *, IDDH‐1 *, IDDH‐2 *, IDHP‐3 *, MDH‐3 * and mME...
