      Coucheron, Dag-Hugo; Nymark, Marianne; Breines, Ragna; Karlsen, Bård Ove; Andreassen, morten; Jørgensen, Tor Erik; Moum, Truls; Johansen, Steinar Daae (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Expression and processing of mitochondrial gene transcripts are fundamental to mitochondrial function, but information from early vertebrates like teleost fishes is essentially lacking. We have analyzed mitogenome sequences of ten codfishes (family Gadidae), and provide complete sequences from three new species (Saithe, Pollack and Blue whiting). Characterization of the mitochondrial mRNAs in Saithe ...

      Objective:<br> The objective of this study was to analyse intraspecifc sequence variation of Atlantic cod mitochondrial DNA, based on a comprehensive collection of completely sequenced mitochondrial genomes. <br>Results:<br> We determined the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of 124 cod specimens from the eastern and western part of the species’ distribution range in the North Atlantic Ocean. ...
