Thirteen primers （54%） successfully amplified specific products in the mud carp and 11 primers （48%） showed high polymorphism in the mud carp population. The results indicated that the average number of alleles per locus in the mud carp stocks was 5.2. Average heterozygosity （Ho）, unbiased expected heterozygosity （He） and polymorphism information content （PIC） in the wild population were 0.61 ± 0.2, 0.8 ± 0.09 and 0.72 ± 0.1 respectively. Several Hardy-Weinberg departure value were significandy departed from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The study showed that microsatellite primers from a species of Cyprinidae can be used for mud carp genetic analysis without much cost or time input.展开更多

Here we reported the development of microsatellite markers and their utilization in mud carp （Cirrhina molitorella）. An （CA）15 enriched library has been constructed for mud carp, using the magnetic beads enrichment procedure. Sequence analysis of 60 randomly picked positive colonies indicate that 56 （93.3%） of the colonies contain microsatellites. Microsatellite polymorphism was assessed using 10 mud carp individuals, and 12 microsatellite loci turned out to be polymorphic. We utilized these loci to study the genetic diversity of a wild population （WM） and a cultured population （CM） of the mud carp. A total of 109 alleles were detected with an average of 9.08 alleles per locus. The mean value of the observed heterozygosity of WM and CM was 0.6361 and 0.6417, respectively, and significant decrease of genetic diversity in CM was not observed. The genetic distance between the two populations was 0.1546 and the value of Gsr was 0.0473. This showed that there existed a slight genetic differentiation between WM and CM.展开更多
