RESEARCH ARTICLE Introgression and genetic structure in northern Spanish Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) populations according to mtDNA data
ancestral and modern genetic variation of the mitochon-drial ND1 region at eight Atlantic salmon rivers in northern Spain. Using old scales, we show that genetic variation in NW Spanish salmon populations has not changed signifi-cantly during the past 50 years. Comparing our data with that from the...
