An investigation was made of the biochemical genetic variation within and among Pacific salmon ( Oncorhynchus spp.) and related trout ( Salmo spp.). Estimates (based on 19 to 23 loci) of proportion of loci polymorphic and average heterozygosity respectively were: pink salmon ( O. gorbuscha )—.111 an...
