摘要
The northern and southern polar oceans have very different oceanographic features. Taking advantage of the information available on haemoglobin structure and function, we analysed the evolutionary history of the alpha and beta globins of Antarctic and Arctic haemoglobins as a basis for reconstructing the phylogenetic relationships among species.
