The green turtle Chelonia ?7zydos is distributed threughout tropical and sgbtrepic31 oce3iks worldwide. The Japanese popt{lation, the itorthemmest popu}atioR ef this species, is decreasing d"e to loss ef spawniftg beaches, aRd peopling to the coastai are3. To examiRe the genetiÅí structure 3Rd genetic diversity of the Japanese population, a total of 294 individuals from seveR foraging }ocaiities aRd 20 iRdividgials frem two ftesting sites were awalyzed usiRg muscle and skiR samples. The cofttrsi region of rnitochondriai PNA (mtDNA) was amplified with specific primers, aRd 32 haplotypes were detected from the Jap3Rese pgpulatiork. }Ilapletype diversities (k) of the soEgthern isiands (O.89 at Yaeyama aftd O.83 at Amami-Ohshirif}a) were higker thaR those ofthe reain islands (O.69, e.63, and e.67 at Nom3ike, Meirsto, 3Rd Owase, respectively). A xnedi3n-joiniRg tree using the 32 haplotypes showed three elades, and domimant h3piotypes were situated iR the midd}e of each clade. The exact test and FsT for geegraphic heteregeiteity in haplotype frequency distribvitioRs fgr the five feraging localities shewed that sigRificaRt differences were detected between Yaeyam3 and the maiR isl3nd localities, aRd between the AmamiOhshima aRd Nomaike/Owase lec31ities.
