GENETIC SUBSTRUCTURE OF THE PACIFIC HARBOR SEAL ( PHOCA VITULINA RICHARDSI ) OFF WASHINGTON, OREGON, AND CALIFORNIA
A bstract Genetic substructure among groups of Pacific harbor seals, Phoca vitulina richardsi , along the western coast of the United States was investigated using mitochondrial DNA sequences. Blood and tissue samples were removed from 86 seals inhabiting Puget Sound and the Pacific coasts of Washin...
