[Investigation on polymorphism of mitochondrial genome in Cobia fish Rachycentron canadum in the northern waters of the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea]

ABSTRACT

Background and Aim: Given the nutritious value of Cobia and its importance in terms of rapid growth in cultural conditions and noticeable commercial value, along with lack of sufficient literature in this regard, this study was run to investigate genomic polymorphism of this species in southern waters of Iran in 2010. The study aimed at enlightening genetic variation and determining its rate inside and between probable populations
