Mitochondrial control region sequences show high genetic connectivity in the brownstripe snapper, Lutjanus vitta (Quoy and Gaimard, 1824) from the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

Abstract excerpt

The Brownstripe Snapper, Lutjanus vitta (Quoy and Gaimard, 1824) is a commercially important snapper extensively caught in Malaysia. We examined genetic diversity, population connectivity, and historical demographics of the L. vitta, off the eastern coast of peninsular Malaysia based on an 817 bp region of the mtDNA control region sequences. Maximum likelihood gene trees demonstrated that the populations under...
