| description |
The extraordinary growth performance and simple culture method of green mussel
(Pema viridis) make it a potentially profitable aquaculture species. However, green
mussel aquaculture in Sabah still relatively undeveloped. As green mussel
aquaculture in Sabah is completely relying on wild green mussel population for both
spats and broodstock, It is imperative to understand various population parameters
of green mussel including the population genetic Information before green mussel
aquaculture improvement initiatives commence. In this study, 200 green mussel
specimens were collected from five locations in Sabah which included Kota Kinabalu,
Kota Marudu, Kuala Penyu, Tuaran and Tawau. The population genetic of green
mussel in Sabah was examined using mitochondrial DNA (D-loop) and microsatellite
W. Fifteen microsatellite loci were examined using polyacrylamide gel
electrophoresis whereas mitochondrial DNA (d-loop) was examined using DNA
sequencing method. Standard genetic diversity indices for mitochondrial DNA were
calculatedI n DnaSP5.10.1w here as micro satellite was calculated in Ariequin3 .5.1.2.
Pairwise F-statistic, AMOVA and Mantel's test were calculated for both D-loop and
microsatellite using the Ariequin 3.5.1.2. Nested lade analysis, UPGMA
dendrogram and STUCTURE2 .3.4 were used to further elucidate the population
structure of the green mussel. Besides, genetic bottleneck signature in the green
mussel population was examined using BOTTLENEC1K. 2.02 and neutral tests in
Arlequin 3.5.1.2. Green mussel population showed high haplotype diversity and low
nudeotide diversity (Hd=0.916; n=0.00915) in mitochondrial D-loop region whereas
the microsatellite genetic diversity of green mussel in Sabah (A=3.08; He=0.43)
was lower than other location such as Thailand. The low average allele number
indicated the adaptability of the green mussel population to sudden change in
environment and disease outbreak is weak. Introduction of green mussel stocks
from Thailand would probably increase the genetic diversity of the green mussel
population in Sabah and may manifest the genetic differences in commercially
significant phenotypic traits. AMOVA and pairwise F-statistic for both microsatellite
and D-loop showed low but significant population structuring. Nested Glade analysis
based on mitochondrial DNA was unable to Identify the population structure clearly.
However, STRUCTURE and UPGMA dendrogram based on microsatellite data
showed that the individuals from Kota Marudu and Tawau constituted a cluster
whereas individuals from Kota Kinabalu, Kuala Penyu and Tuaran formed the
another duster. The population structure pattern was probably affected by local
marine current, larvae behaviour or even anthropogenic activities. From fisheries
management perspective, it is desirable to manage the two groups separately.
Significant genetic bottleneck signature was not detected In either microsatellite loci
or D-loop of mitochondrial DNA albeit green mussel population in Sabah passed
through a severe mass mortality which lasted for almost three years. In conclusion,
the outcomes of this study have created a sound foundation for green mussel
