Electrophoretic variation in large mammals: I. The polar bear, Thalarctos maritimus

Electrophoretic variation in large mammals: I. The polar bear, Thalarctos maritimus

Thirteen enzyme loci have been resolved by starch gel electrophoresis from sera and red blood cells of samples of 52 polar bears from eastern Greenland. No variation in the mobility of electrophoretic bands was observed. The genetic variability is thus low as in other large mammals except man.
