Analysis of microsatellite DNA from old scale samples of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar : A comparison of genetic composition over 60 years
Microsatellite analysis was applied to scale samples of Atlantic salmon collected up to 60 years ago. Samples from the 1930s, from a now endangered Danish population, were compared with recent samples (1989), to test if the present population consists of descendants from the original one. Allele fre...
