Preliminary Analysis of the Potential for Stock Assessment of Pacific Ocean Delphinids by G and C Chromosome Banding

This contract was let to assess the potential of chromosomal banding analyses in defining subspecific units of pelagic dolphins in the eastern tropical Pacific. To conduct the necessary research, the investigation collected tissue samples from accidentally killed dolphins and conducted storage viability tests and cytogenetic analyses on them. Recommendations are made for a follow-up study. 1981 Contract no. NOAA/79-ABC-00205 NMFS (National Marine Fisheries Service) SWFSC (Southwest Fisheries Science Center) Library Public Domain 1930

本委托合同旨在评估染色体显带分析（chromosomal banding analyses）在界定东热带太平洋远洋海豚亚种单元方面的应用潜力。为开展此项必要研究，该调研团队从兼捕致死的海豚个体中采集组织样本，并对样本开展储存活力测试与细胞遗传学分析（cytogenetic analyses）。本研究同时提出后续研究的相关建议。
