Description Genetic variation is an essential factor while selecting superior stocks for breeding programs. Eight microsatellite loci
(TUZX pm2.27, TUZX pm2.28, TUZX pm2.36, TUZX pm2.69, TUZX pm4.84, TUZX pm4.87, TUZX pm6.1 and TUZX
pm4.9) were used for molecular characterisation of Penaeus monodon collected from three different locations in India,
viz., Kakinada and Chennai on the east coast and Mumbai on the west coast and all the loci were found to be highly
polymorphic. The number of alleles and genotypes across the loci ranged from 5 to 23 and 42 to 98, respectively. The
observed heterozygosity among the populations across the loci ranged from 0 to 0.1678. The overall FST value was found to
be 0.021 (
