Allele Frequency Data of 4 Microsatellite Markers of Cyprinus carpio from Tapiza Hatchery in Albania

Abstract

The aim of this study is to characterize the carp population from a hatchery, based on microsatellite markers. Microsatellite markers are appropriate for evaluation of genetic diversity in animal populations. Thirty individuals were genotyped for four microsatellite markers, which were previously used also for the genetic characterization of other wild and hatchery carp populations. The individuals were selected from an important hatchery, that produce finger- -lings for restocking of natural and artificial lakes of Albania. The results show a high level of genetic variability with mean observed and expected heterozygosity values of 0.483 and 0.835 respectively. All the markers were highly polymorphic, with a total of 66 alleles detected. PIC values for each marker were higher than 0.7 and displayed neutrality, proving to be appropriate for the genetic characterization of carp population. The population shows a high level of inbreeding of 43.5%. All markers deviated from HWE. The results provided here can help in the designing of a breeding program, for the carp which is an important fish species of our inland water.
