“…Most studies of burbot population genetic structure have examined populations from North America (e.g. Elmer, Recknagel, Thompson, & Meyer, 2012;Elmer, Van Houdt, Meyer, & Volckaert, 2008;Powell, Paragamian, & Dunnigan, 2008;Underwood et al, 2016), China (Fang, Zhang, Song, Qian, & Gao, 2013) and Russia (Van Houdt, Cleyn, Perretti, & Volckaert, 2005;Van Houdt et al, 2003). Only three studies (Barluenga, Sanetra, & Meyer, 2006;Van Houdt et al, 2005, 2003 included a limited number of German sampling sites (Lake Constance and the rivers Isar and Elbe).…”
