Abstract:We present data forPorphyra columbina and eight putative species collected from 27 sites around the North, South, and Stewart Islands, New Zealand. Thirty three alleles at ten gene loci are compared. For P. columbina and five putative species, allozyme patterns generally corresponded to the suite of morphological characteristics being considered for their delineation. The allozymes of three other putative species showed no such relation. Most populations at sites with several putative species had higher allele… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
