  • Title: [Variation of cytochrome b gene in sympatric chars from Kronotsky Lake (Kamchatka oblast)].
    Author: Radchenko OA, Salmenkova EA, Omel'chenko VT.
    Journal: Genetika; 2006 Feb; 42(2):233-43. PubMed ID: 16583708.
    Abstract:
    In previously identified sympatric char forms (species) from Kronotsky Lake (Kamchatka Peninsula) and a number of other chars from the genus Salvelinus, nucleotide sequences of the mtDNA cytochrome b gene were determined and phylogenetic analysis of these forms was performed. The divergence of the cytochrome b gene in the Kronotsky char group (0.48%) coincided with the interpopulation difference estimates in northern Dolly Varden, which indicates a relatively recent divergence of the chars from Kronotsky Lake. Haplotypes of each form of the Kronotsky Lake chars are divided into two groups, which belonged to two different phylogenetic mtDNA lineages of northern Dolly Varden from Chukotka and Kamchatka. The formation of the Kronotsky char forms proved to be unrelated to the observed variability of the mtDNA cytochrome b gene.
