Article Synopsis
- The tench (Tinca tinca) is a freshwater fish with a growing interest in aquaculture and various human-induced movements across regions, yet lacks detailed genetic information.
- Analysis of mitochondrial DNA from 50 tench individuals across five European populations revealed two distinct phylogroups and greater genetic variability than previously documented, along with a hybridization zone in the Danube River.
- Additional genetic tests indicate a complex structure in both wild and moved tench populations, which will aid in developing better breeding practices in the future.
