Better Resolution for Cytochrome b than Cytochrome c Oxidase Subunit I to Identify Schizothorax Species (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) from the Tibetan Plateau and Its Adjacent Area.

Abstract excerpt

The genus Schizothorax is one of the most diverse groups of schizothoracine fish. Many species within this genus possess highly similar morphological characters and are very difficult to be identified accurately only based on morphology. The present study aims to test the effectiveness of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and cytochrome b (Cytb) gene for discriminating the Schizothorax fish....
