Development of novel SSR markers and validation by assessing the genetic diversity of endangered Deccan mahseer, Tor khudree.

Background: The Deccan mahseer, Tor khudree (Sykes, 1839) is a potential game and food fish species belonging to the family cyprinidae and is categorized as endangered. Its distribution is restricted to southern part of India, specifically to Peninsular Rivers. This study is first to assess the genetic diversity and differentiation in Tor khudree by developing novel simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers.

Morphometric and genetic characterization of cultured and wild populations of tilapia, in India.

To study genetic variation in Indian populations of tilapia, both truss morphometrics and genetic characterization have been performed. In the present study, 88 individuals from two farm populations (GIFT and West Bengal) and one reservoir population (Gujarat) were selected to analyse variations at ten morphometric landmarks and eight microsatellite loci. Truss morphometric analysis showed PCI, PCII, and PCIII expressing 29.

Genetic diversity and genome-scale population structure of wild Indian major carp, (Hamilton, 1822), revealed by genotyping-by-sequencing.

(catla) is the second most commercially important and widely cultured Indian major carp (IMC). It is indigenous to the Indo-Gangetic riverine system of India and the rivers of Bangladesh, Nepal, Myanmar, and Pakistan. Despite the availability of substantial genomic resources in this important species, detailed information on the genome-scale population structure using SNP markers is yet to be reported.

Complete mitochondrial genome of nearly threatened freshwater ornamental fish, and its phylogenetic relationship within Syngnathidae.

(deocata pipefish), belonging to family Syngnathidae, is one of the important indigenous ornamental fish species listed as near threatened in the IUCN red list. Here, we first report the complete mitochondrial genome of deocata pipefish using Illumina next-generation sequencing platform. The total length of the mitogenome is 16,526 bp.

The complete mitochondrial genome of (Hamilton, 1822) using long read sequencing.

is a widely cultured species in monoculture and polyculture systems of the Indian subcontinent. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of catla was reconstructed from Oxford Nanopore sequence data. The mitochondrial genome is 16,600 bp in length (accession no.

The draft genome of Labeo catla.

Objective: Labeo catla (catla), one of the three Indian major carps, is native to the Indo-Gangetic riverine system of India as well as the rivers of Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Myanmar. Its higher growth rate and compatibility with other major carps, specific surface feeding habit, and consumer preference have increased its popularity in carp polyculture systems among the fish farmers in Indian subcontinent. Recent advancement in sequencing technology coupled with massive parallel sequencing platforms has facilitated accelerated genetic improvement in aquaculture species through integration of genomics tools.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of revealed by next generation sequencing.

The complete mitochondrial genome of , the Green chromide cichlid, was determined for the first time through NGS method. The genome is 16,467 bp (Accession no. KU301747) in length and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and one control region.
