Biochemical genetic characterization of F1 reciprocal hybrids between neotropical pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) and tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) reared in Brazil

1999-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Electrophoretic profiles for pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus), tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) and their reciprocal hybrids 'tambacu' and 'paqui' are presented. Hybrids have been produced extensively in fishculture programs in Brazil and represent a potential threat to wild parental stocks, since approximately 4% of hybrid 'tambacu' show zygotic sterility and/or low fertility. Diagnostic electrophoretic markers were...
