Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the genetic diversity and population structure of 'white' type Northern snakehead populations using mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequences, comparing them with 'bicolor' type populations.
- A total of 28 mutation loci and 30 haplotypes were identified, with 'white' type populations showing lower haplotype and nucleotide diversity compared to 'bicolor' type populations.
- The research highlighted significant genetic differentiation in 'bicolor' populations, while 'white' type populations had close genetic distances, suggesting a need to protect their genetic diversity to prevent inbreeding during breeding efforts.
