Description In this study, shell morphometrics and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) techniques were used to evaluate
the genetic variability in 4 wild populations of Perna viridis (H≈2500 km apart) along the Indian coast. The phenotypic
stocks of mussels were separated using canonical discriminant function analysis. Scatter plots developed with CDA
depicted overlapping clusters, indicative of the morphological uniformity of the species along the Indian coast, while
Andaman population was forming a separate cluster. RAPD profiles generated from green mussels using 6 primers
amplified a total of 43 different fragments ranging from
