Frontiers | Genetic Diversity, Habitat Relevance and Conservation Strategies of the Silver Carp in the Yangtze River by Simple Sequence Repeat
The spatial distribution of fish individuals is affected by habitat conditions and species ecological characteristics, and it also reflects the longtime adaptation to habitat at the phenotypic and genotypic level. Adaptation to a typical habitat over a long period of time causes fish species to form a distinct geographic population. As a typical river-lake migratory fish, the silver carp habitat selection was determined by its migration preference and genetic features. In this study, 15 microsat...
