Microsatellite genetic distances between oceanic populations of the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes of humpback whales show strong segregation between oceanic populations and between feeding grounds within oceans, but this highly structured pattern does not exclude the possibility of extensive nuclear gene flow. Here we present allele frequency data for four microsatel...
