Phylogenetic trees are constructed, with the neighbor-joining method.Coleoids are divided into two main lineages, Decabrachia and Octobrachia. The monophyly of the order Sepioidea,which includes the families Sepiidae, Sepiolidae and Idiosepiidae , is not supported. From the two families ofSepioidea examined, the Sepiolidae are polyphyletic and are excluded from the order. On the basis of 16S rRNA andamino acid of COI gene sequences data, the two genera (Sepiella and Sepia) from the Sepiidae can be distinguished, butdo not have a visible boundary using COI gene sequences. The reason is explained. This suggests that the 16S rDNAof cephalopods is a precious tool to analyze taxonomic relationships at the genus level, and COI gene is fitter at ahigher taxonomic level (i.e., family).展开更多

Eighteen enzymes (G3PDH, LDH, MDH, MEP, IDHP, PGDH, GRS, NP, AAT, CK, AK, EST, ALP, ACP, FBP, MPI, GPI and PGM) show strong activities and good convergence in zymogram. They are proved to be suitable genetic markers in Sepia esculenta. Among the tissues used, mantle muscle is the best for electrophoretic analysis of isozymes. Eye and liver are fairly good for some special enzymes, such as LDH, EST, MPI, etc. Twenty six loci are detected. The proportion of polymorphic loci is 0.115 in the Qingdao sample and 0.153 in the Rizhao sample ( P < 0.99 ). The mean values of the observed and expected heterozygosity per locus of Qingdao sample are 0.016 and 0.017 , while those of the Rizhao sample are 0.023 and 0.025 respectively.展开更多
