| Abstract | ||
| The report compared six parrotfish species (Scarus ferrugineus, Scarus psittacus, Scarus frenatus, Chlorurus sordidus, scarus genazotus and Cetoscarus bicolor) for molecular diversity and phylogenetic using eleven ISSR primers, the obtained results showed a total of 235 DNA fragments; 11 were common bands, 65 were specific bands and 159 were polymorphic bands. Additionally, the results indicated the largest similarity degree 58 between (Chlorurus sordidus and scarus genazotus), while the lowest similarity degree 35 was found between (Scarus frenatus and Chlorurus sordidus). The results that occurred from ISSR analysis found to be more reliable for differentiating species of fishes particularly parrotfish. | ||
