| Abstract: | Eight populations of Mytilus galloprovincialis from differentcoasts of the Northern and Central Aegean Sea have been investigatedat the morphological and allozymic level. A significant degreeof variation was found within and among the populations. Theaverage degree of heterozygosity ranges from 0.085 to 0.14 andit is lower than those reported for other populations of thesame species. No correlation was found between the degree ofheterozygosity and the morphological variability among the populationsexamined. (Received 14 May 1992; accepted 1 October 1992) |
