The Stock Genetic Structure of Two Sparidae Species, Diplodus vulgaris and Lithognathus mormyrus, in the Mediterranean Sea.

2003

Abstract Polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) of allozymes was used to investigate the intraspecies genetic variation and the genetic stock structure of Diplodus vulgaris and Lithognathus mormyrus captured from eight localities in the Mediterranean Sea. Twenty-two and 20 putative enzyme-coding loci were examined, respectively, in D. vulgaris and L. mormyrus . Polymorphic loci at the 95% level were used to assess the allozyme variability in D. vulgaris ( AAT-2 ∗ , EST-1 ∗ , GLDH ∗ , PEPB-2 ∗ , PGI-2 ∗ , PGM ∗ , SDH ∗ ) and L. mormyrus ( AAT-2 ∗ , EST-1 ∗ , GLDH ∗ , MDH-2 ∗ , PGI-2 ∗ , PGM ∗ ). The proportion of polymorphic loci in both species ranged from 0.31 ( D. vulgaris ) to 0.30 ( …
