Population structure of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in the Newfoundland and Labrador area based on microsatellite variation / Terry D. Beacham … [et al.]. : Fs70-1/1999-35E-PDF

The primary objective of this study was to use microsatellite variation to investigate population structure of cod around Newfoundland and Labrador. It was examined whether there are distinct "bay stocks" of cod, i.e., is there genetic differentiation among cod populations in neighboring bays along the northeastern coast and southern coasts of Newfoundland? The degree of genetic differentiation between inshore-spawning populations and offshore-spawning populations were also examined to determine whether they constitute separate stocks. Finally, the utility of using microsatellite variation for estimation of stock composition in mixed-stock fisheries was examined.
