Turbot ( Scophthalmus maximus L., 1758) is a valuable commercial fish species classified as endangered. The conservation and sustainability of the turbot populations require knowledge population’s genetic structure constant monitoring its biodiversity. present study was performed to evaluate population along Bulgarian Black Sea coast using seven pairs microsatellites, two mitochondrial DNA (COI...

Although less famous than low-spin trivalent cobalt found in [CoIII(NH3)6?xClx]Cl3?x (x ? 3), which was exploited by Alfred Werner during the early part of 20th century for establishing basic rules coordination chemistry, related chromium complexes exhibit comparable kinetic inertness, a rare property along 3d-transition series. The associated slow isomerisation processes are compatible with is...

Mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) has been frequently used as genetic markers for the population genetic studies. In this study we used chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) from Korea, Japan andAmerica, and compared their mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 3 (ND3) genes by DNA sequence analysis. Sequence variation was studied in the ND3 among total 11 individuals from three populations. The ND3 gene...

I n general, the clinical course of patients suffering from different types of mtDNA mediated neurodegenerative disorders progresses with age. The clinical progression of muscle weakness has been reported to correlate with an increase in cytochrome c oxidase (COX) negative fibres or with an increase of mutant mtDNA in skeletal muscle. In a recent issue we reported on a patient with mitochondria...
