Studies on lactate dehydrogenase isozymes in Mugil cephalus and Liza parsia.

Realising the importance of applying genetic principles in aquaculture programme in our country and the long term needs for preserving the natural genetic resources/ fish genetics has been identified as a priority field for research and development. Genetic studies using isozymes have made a substantial contribution towards efforts at preserving genetic resources of fish. Ihey allow identification and description of the population genetic structure of species interest. Ihey thus provide the basis for development of appropriate sampling and preservation procedures for particular species
