High Levels of Genetic Variability and Differentiation In
Genetics and Molecular Biology Online Ahead of Print Copyright © 2009, Sociedade Brasileira de Genética. Printed in Brazil www.sbg.org.br High levels of genetic variability and differentiation in hilsa shad, Tenualosa ilisha (Clupeidae, Clupeiformes) populations revealed by PCR-RFLP analysis of the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region Sabuj Kanti Mazumder and Md. Samsul Alam Department of Fisheries Biology and Genetics, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh. Abstract The hilsa shad, Tenualosa ilisha (Clupeidae, Clupeiformes) is an important anadromous clupeid species from the Western division of the Indo-Pacific region. It constitutes the largest single fishable species in Bangladesh. Informa- tion on genetic variability and population structure is very important for both management and conservation pur- poses. Past reports on the population structure of T. ilisha involving morphometric, allozyme and RAPD analyses are contradictory. We examined genetic variability and divergence in two riverine (the Jamuna and the Meghna), two estuarine (Kuakata and Sundarbans) and one marine (Cox’s Bazar) populations of T. ilisha by applying PCR-RFLP analysis of the mtDNA D-loop region. The amplified PCR products were restricted with four restriction enzymes namely, XbaI, EcoRI, EcoRV, and HaeIII. High levels of haplotype and gene diversity within and significant differenti- ations among, populations of T. ilisha were observed in this study. Significant FST values indicated differentiation among the river, estuary and marine populations. The UPGMA dendrogram based on genetic distance resulted in two major clusters, although, these were subsequently divided into three, corresponding to the riverine, estuarine and marine populations. The study underlines the usefulness of RFLP of mtDNA D-loop region as molecular mark- ers, and detected at least two differentiated populations of T. -

Corresponding author: A. Nur Asma, [email protected] Abstract. Malaysia possessed two species of Tenualosa sp.; the Tenualosa toli and Tenualosa macrura, which can only be found in Sarawak. Recently, samples that resembled the Tenualosa sp. were found in Perak River of Peninsular Malaysia. The absence of comprehensive study of Tenualosa sp. in Peninsular Malaysia had urged this study to be conducted to authenticate the samples found. Identification were done using morphological analysis with the integration of molecular assessment using partial genes of cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) and 16S rRNA. Morphological analysis of 40 samples showed the closest correlation with Tenualosa ilisha (Hamilton, 1822). However, variations were found in meristic counts and the samples were differentiated into two groups. The meristic counts also overlapped with other species of the same genus. Molecular assessments on 10 samples performed using partial CO1 and 16S rRNA genes had obtained 500-bp and 573-bp sequences respectively, that has high similarity with T. -

Catalogue of Marine Fishes of Iraq
Vol. 2 (2): 298-368, 2018 Catalogue of Marine Fishes of Iraq Atheer H. Ali*, Thamir K. Adday & Najim R. Khamees 2Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources, College of Agriculture, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Reviewing the literature dealt with marine fishes of Iraq, which were captured in territorial marine waters of Iraq or brackish, freshwaters and marshes, from 1874 until the mid of 2018 indicated the presence of 322 species belonging to 193 genera, 94 families and 26 orders. Perciformes is the richest order, represented with 183 species (about 56.83% of all fish species), 97 genera and 38 families. Among these, 40 (42.5%) different families are represented with a single species. The Carangidae has the higher number of genera (17) and species (33). Ten out of 26 orders (38.5%) have been represented with single species only. Elasmobranchs are represented with 42 species (23 selachids and 19 batoids). Locally, the sharks (selachids) comprise three orders and eight families, while the skates and the rays (batoids) are represented with seven families and four orders. A total of 193 of confirmed marine species (66 families and 18 orders) were recorded from Shatt Al- Arab river. Keywords: Marine fishes, Shatt Al-Arab river, Shatt Al-Basrah canal, checklists, Iraq. Introduction Iraq is located in the innermost part of the Arabian Gulf where more than 510 species of fishes have been reported (Krupp et al., 2015). Species composition varies mostly with bottom type and with the influence of the Shatt Al-Arab river at the north.
