Population Genetic Structure of Malalugis Fish (Decapterus macarellus) in The Waters Around The Island of Sulawesi Based on Mt-DNA Marker
Struktur Genetika Populasi Ikan Malalugis (Decapterus macarellus) di Perairan Sekitar Pulau Sulawesi Berdasarkan Mt-DNA Marker
Abstract
Studies on genetic diversity of Malalugis (Decapterus macarellus) has been undertaken around Sulawesi to obtain population genetic structure of the study area. The study was based on RFLP analysis of mitochondrial genome DNA extracted from fish tissue (meat, fins). Fish samples collected from several populations of small-scale fisheries captured in several locations around Sulawesi. The results showed that the genetic diversity obtained by including low, ie between 0 to 0.3698. Provided two major groups in the population structure Malalugis fish in the waters around Sulawesi Island, namely: the first group is represented by a population of Makassar Strait,Bone Bay, Flores Sea, Banda Sea, Tolo Bay, Molucca Sea and Tomini Bay and the second group is represented by the Celebes Sea population. The population of the Bone Bay, Flores Sea, Banda Sea, Tolo Bay and Molucca Sea has a very close kinship, so that probably originated from the same stock. In the population there Tomini Bay locals, because there is little difference with adjacent populations (Maluku Sea and Banda Sea).
