Notes:
A contribution to the differentiation between the blue whitefisb (Coregonus lavaretus wartmanni) and the densly rahered whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus macrophthalmus) by biochemical genetic analyses A sample of 86 fish of the Genus Coregonus were analysed by enzyme gel electrophoresis. 6 Loci out of 32 were polymorphic. Blue whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus wartmanni) and densly rahered whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus macrophthalmus) revealed different allele frequencies at the Hex-locus. Sub-population structure is further evidenced by a correlation between qhenotypes at the Hex-locus and the number of gill rahers, but there is no reason for ordering both groups in different species.
