Isolation, Characterization and Application of Micro Satellite Markers in the Southeast Asian River Catfish (Baung) Mystus Nemurus (C&V)

In Malaysia 70% of the dietary protein comes from fish. The popularity of the river catfish Mystus nemurus throughout Malaysia and also Southeast Asia has made it an important aquaculture candidate. Among the vast choice of molecular markers available to carry out a population study including sto...
