Genetic variation of western larch in British Columbia and its conservation
Article Abstract:
Only 7% of the total allelic variation in western larch populations in British Columbia, Canada, is attributable to differences among populations, according to research undertaken on nine widely distributed natural stands in the interior British Columbia. There are indications of extensive gene flow among the populations studied. High gene flow is known to cut the level of genetic differentiation among populations. This information will play a valuable role in making informed gene resource management decisions.

Genetic study of the Atlantic/Mediterranean transition in Sea Bass
Article Abstract:
The genetic differentiation among populations of the common sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) from the North Sea, Britanny, Portugal, Morocco, the Alboran Sea and the western Mediterranean is examined. Sea bass populations were clustered into to distinct groups, the Atlantic group and the western Mediterranean group, and it is possible that the divide may be linked to the Almeria-Oran oceanographic front.
