A Rapid Screening Procedure for Detecting mtDNA Haplotypes in Humpback Whales ( Megaptera novaeangliae )
The highly polymorphic control region of mitochondrial (mt) DNA is used extensively in population genetic studies (1, 2). Variation in the control region is usually detected by sequencing. We have studied the variation in the first 288 base-pairs of the mt control region of the North Atlantic humpba...
