Dna Barcoding Of Malaysian Marine Fish, Phylogenetics And Phylogeography Of The Snappers (Perciformes: Lutjanidae)

This study, implemented DNA Barcoding which offers great potential as a reliable identification tool to classify catches in Malaysia. Overall, this study had successfully barcoded a total of 107 species, 69 genera, 36 families and 10 order of commercial Malaysian fishes. It is found that, the snappe...
