SC/59/BRG 11 A Brief and Preliminary Look at SNPs Data for some Bering-Chukchi- Beaufort Seas Bowhead Whales

We present preliminary analyses of 18 single nucleotide polymorphism markers (SNPs) for 106 bowhead whales from Barrow and St. Lawrence Island. We find no evidence for disequilibrium, population substructure, or genetic variation associated with temporal spacing of whales in the migration.
