Effects of Industrial Waste on Genetic Variability of Pangasius hypophthalmus in Bangladesh
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 5
Abstract
The effects of industrial effluents on genetic variability of Thai Pangas, Pangasius hypophthalmus were examined by seven RAPD primers in this research. Pangasius hypophthalmus were collected from pollution free water bodies of Mymensingh district, Bangladesh as well as from industrial polluted water bodies of Narayanganj district of Bangladesh. Results indicated that, OPS-04 primer showed no band and except primer OPAK-04 other primes shown no polymorphism in Thai Pangas. None but the primer OPAK-04 showed 71.42% polymorphism along with the average polymorphism of 10.20% in these two specimens which was very negligible. The cluster analysis followed with the genetic distance (0.1542) and genetic identity (0.8571) clearly indicated a minor diversity in genetic level between the samples collected from Mymensingh and Narayanganj. As one primer showed a negligible polymorphism so may be there could be minor effects on genetic level by industrial effluents but the effects were not prominent.
