Lophius gastrophysus has important commercial value in Brazil particularly for foreign trade. In this study, we described the optimization of Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) protocol for identification of L. gastrophysus. Different conditions (annealing temperatures, MgCl concentrations, DNA quantity) were tested to find reproducible and adequate profiles. Amplifications performed with primers A01, ² A02 and A03 generate the best RAPD profiles when the conditions were annealing temperature of 36ºC, 25 ng of DNA quantity and 2.5 mM MgCl2. Exact identification of the species and origin of marine products is necessary and RAPD could be used as an accurate, rapid tool to expose commercial fraud. |

In the past years, DNA barcoding has emerged as a quick, accurate and efficient tool to identify species. Considering the difficulty in identifying some Parodontidae species from the La Plata basin and the absence of molecular data for the group, we aimed to test the effectiveness of DNA barcoding and discuss the importance of using different approaches to solve taxonomic problems. Eight species were analyzed with partial sequences of Cytochrome c oxidase I. The mean intraspecific K2P genetic distance was 0.04% compared to 4.2% for mean interspecific K2P genetic distance. The analyses of distance showed two pairs of species with K2P genetic divergence lower than 2%, but enough to separate these species. Apareiodon sp. and A. ibitiensis, considered as the... |
