GENETIC POPULATION STRUCTURE OF ATLANTIC SWORDFISH: CURRENT STATUS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
The genetic population structure of Atlantic swordfish has been studied with mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear DNA (nDNA) data using a variety of laboratory methodologies and analytical approaches. In here, we compare preliminary data for the nuclear genes ldhA and Calmodulin (Cam) from the Sout...
