Abstract
Direct sequencing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D-loop (745 bp) and MTATPase6/
MTATPase8 (857 bp) regions was used to investigate genetic variation within common carp
and develop a global genealogy of common carp strains. The D-loop region was more
variable than the MTATPase6/MTATPase8 region, but given the wide distribution of carp
the overall levels of sequence divergence were low. Levels of haplotype diversity varied
widely among countries with Chinese, Indonesian and Vietnamese carp showing the
greatest diversity whereas Japanese Koi and European carp had undetectable nucleotide
variation. A genealogical analysis supports a close relationship between Vietnamese, Koi
and Chinese Color carp strains and to a lesser extent, European carp. Chinese and Indonesian
carp strains were the most divergent, and their relationships do not support the
evolution of independent Asian and European lineages and current taxonomic treatments.
