Gene variation and population structure of Pampus chinensis in the China coast revealed by mitochondrial control region sequences.

ABSTRACT: Pampus chinensis is a commercially important fishery species in the Indo-West Pacific region. In the present study, the genetic variation of P. chinensis among 10 sampling localities along the China coast and one from the Indonesia region was evaluated using mitochondrial DNA control region sequences. As a result, a total of 30 variable sites were detected in the 458 bp segment of the control region among 330 individuals from 11 localities, and 41 haplotypes were defined. Samples in the China coast present a high level of genetic diversity, with the values of haplotype diversity ranged from 0.674 to 0.860, and nucleotide diversity from 0.820% to 1.502%. Pairwise F_ST statistics showed a moderate genetic divergence (-0.027 to 0.384) among samples from differen
