Study of genetic diversity of Sharpnose mullet Liza saliens (Risso, 1810) in the coastal regions of Mazandaran Province by microsatellite marker
Sharpnose mullet is an exotic species of Caspian Sea which was translocated from Black sea to Caspian Sea during 1930 to 1934. This species colonized successfully and now it is commercial species of Caspian Sea. There is no information at molecular level about this species after 8 decades of presence in Caspian Sea, therefore genetic structure of Sharpnose mullet (L. saliens) in two regions, Babolsar and Tonekabonof Mazandaran Province was investigated using 6 microsatellite loci. Results showed low allelic richness (Na=5) and high level of Heterozygosity (Ho=0.821). So genetic diversity of species this was very low relative to marine species. Also, genetic differentiation index between population was very low (0.032) due to natural migration and high gene flow (10.4) between these regions.
