Genetic investigations on striped bass (Morone saxatilis) in the Canadian Maritime Provinces / by Mike Robinson and Simon C. Courtenay.: Fs70-1/1999-06E-PDF
Although the overall population genetics of striped bass in the Canadian Maritime Provinces remains largely unknown, several studies have been completed that have helped us to understand both the phylogeography and population structure of this important species. Investigations have been conducted on the genetics of Maritime striped bass using both mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA. These investigations have used a variety of techniques to differentiate between striped bass populations in Atlantic Canada. These different techniques, the results from each study, and their associated strengths and weaknesses will comprise the main body of this paper. In the discussion, the results from these studies will be synthesized to show the informative but incomplete picture of striped bass genetics in Atlantic Canada.
