摘要：

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of Mytilus trossulus from the Gulf of Gdansk (southern Baltic) and M. edulis from Swansea Bay, South Wales, UK, collected in 1991, was studied by restriction-enzyme analysis. These two species were more similar to each other in haplotype frequencies than either was to M. gallo-provincialis from Britain, M. trossulus resembles M. edulis in having a high frequency of heteroplasmy restricted to males. However, in contrast to M. edulis where restriction-site heteroplasmy predominates, in M. trossulus heteroplasmic individuals possess two genomes which differ in length by up to 3 kilobases.
