Transferrin polymorphism in blueback herring, Alosa aestivalis (Mitchill)
Keyword(s):
Using vertical polyacrylamide electrophoresis and autoradiography we have shown that blueback herring, (Alosa aestivalis), is polymorphic for transferrins found in the plasma. Assuming a three-allele, one-locus system, the frequencies of the transferrin bands agree with the Hardy-Weinberg model. Of the four samples analyzed, two were similar in transferrin frequencies but these were different from the other two. We conclude that transferrin is of limited suitability as a population marker in the case of blueback herring resident in the St. John River, New Brunswick.
