Phylogenetic relationships among Mahseers (Cyprindae) in Malaysia inferred from Sequencing of a cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) segment

The present study examines the phylogenetic relationships among Tor douronensis, T. tambra, T. tambroides of the genus Tor and Neolissochilus stracheyi representing the genus Neolissochilus, by using the partial sequencing of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase I (COD gene. Samples were co...
