Management of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua in U.S. waters is based on a two-stock model composed of stocks from (1) the Gulf of Maine (GOM) and (2) Georges Bank (GB) and areas south; however, evidence suggests a more fine-scale structuring. We used microsatellite and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP...
