study of fish species in genetic diversity

Fish are a diverse group of aquatic animals that inhabit a wide range of ecosystems, from freshwater to saltwater, and from shallow streams to deep ocean trenches. They are also an important source of food and income for many communities around the world. However, many fish species are under threat due to overfishing, habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change. Understanding the genetic diversity of fish populations is crucial for their conservation and management. Objectives: The main objective of this study is to assess the genetic diversity of selected fish species using molecular techniques. Specifically, we aim to:Extract DNA samples from different fish populations Amplify and sequence specific genetic markers Analyze the genetic data to estimate the level of genetic diversity within and between populations Interpret the results in the context of the species' biology and ecology.Methods:Sample collection: We will collect tissue samples from different populations of selected fish species using non-destructive techniques, such as fin-clipping or skin-scraping. We will ensure that the samples are representative of the population and that the collection does not harm the fish.DNA extraction
