Abstract
⺠We determine genetic structure of Chelonia mydas using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA. ⺠Six haplotypes were found and CM-A13 was the major one uncounted for 97.3%. ⺠Level of mtDNA variation makes it impractical for determination of genetic structure. ⺠Higher genetic variation in nDNA in the Mediterranean green turtle was found. ⺠Microsatellites of nDNA allow discrimination between nesting colonies of C. mydas.
