| Abstract: | In this study, the mtDNA region from the 12S rRNA gene to the 16S rRNA gene has been sequenced from a number of Hexanchidae specimens (Hexanchus griseus, Hexanchus nakamurai and Heptranchias perlo). A total of 150 polymorphic nucleotide positions have been identified, with the interspecific divergence being 5.46%, while the intraspecific divergence between the identified haplotypes ranged between 0.24% and 0.95%. |
