Abstract excerpt
mtDNA has been widely used as a molecular marker to investigate the phylogenesis of many species. D-Loop has important value for investigating intraspecific genetic differentiation because of its high mutation accumulation. Fish is the most primitive vertebrate, but by far is the most dominant in number. The distribution of fish is broad and its origin is very complicated, has always been a very interesting...
