Three species of redfish (Sebastes) share a common pattern of mitochondrial DNA tandem repeat polymorphism and heteroplasmy in the northwest Atlantic Ocean. All three species exhibit 9–17 copies of an approximately 275 base pair (bp) tandem repeat situated within the 39 domain of the control region....
