The strength and timing of the mitochondrial bottleneck in salmon suggests a conserved mechanism in vertebrates by Wolff, Jonci N, White, Daniel J, Woodhams, Michael, White, Helen E, Gemmell, Neil J

“…In most species mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited maternally in an apparently clonal fashion, although how this is achieved remains uncertain. Population…”
