Description Not Available
Traditionally, fish species identification is based on morphological characters, yet, in many cases it is difficult to
establish identity as in the case of seahorses which lack key species-diagnostic morphological features. The spotted or
yellow seahorse - Hippocampus kuda has a complex identity and the samples collected from the east and west coasts of
India were analyzed for the species identification and phylogenetic relationship, based on partial sequence information
of mitochondrial genes - 16S rRNA and Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I (COI). Estimates of genetic divergence with
both 16S rRNA and COI genes, when compared with the sequence divergence values of H. kuda from other continents
(as obtained from NCBI accessions) were sufficient enough to discriminate individuals of the same species from Indian
waters. Pair-wise fST values using AMOVA indicated significant levels of genetic differentiation of H. kuda populations
among east coast, Kerala and Konkan populations; however, no significant genetic partitioning was observed between
the Palk Bay and Gulf of Mannar populations.
