Three major phylogenetic lineages of brown trout (Salmo trutta Linnaeus, 1758) in the Krka River system (Croatia) revealed by complete mitochondrial DNA control region sequencing

Analysis of the mitochondrial DNA control region of brown trout from the Krka River revealed the existence of four major phylogenetic lineages in just one river. The native status is assigned to the Adriatic, Mediterranean and marmoratus lineages, while the presence of the Atlantic lineage is a consequence of stocking practice. These results indicate that this part of Adriatic basin could represent contact boundary between marmoratus, Mediterranean and Adriatic lineages of the Salmo trutta.
