The Norwegian minke whale DNA register: a data base monitoring commercial harvest and trade of whale products
Abstract The application of genetics for the management of natural resources is expanding, and within this field, DNA registers will play an increasing role. The Norwegian minke whale DNA register, established in 1996, was designed primarily as a control system to detect any attempts at illegal trad...
