Abstract
Lutjanus kasmira is one of the snappers occupying and commonly found in the Arabian Sea and the Bengal Strait. The purpose of this study was to examine the comparative phylogeography pattern of Lutjanus kasmira in the Bengal Strait and the Arabian Sea using the mitochondrial COI gene as a marker. The population sampled of Indonesia was taken from fish landing in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, while the population of India represented Bengal Strait, Oman, Yemen, Djibouti and Somalia respresented Arabian sea was retrieved from the NCBI Genbank. The extraction method was carried out using a modified C-TAB protocol. In this study at total of 47 sequences were analysed that produced 22 haplotypes where 18 haplotypes distributed in the Arabian Sea and 4 haplotypes from Bengal Strait. 10 samples of Oman population produced 6 haplotypes, 10 samples from Djibouti produced 5 haplotypes, 5 haplotypes from the population of Yemen, Somalia 2 haplotypes and India 1 haplotypes, respectively. Meanwhile, the Indonesian population, from 6 samples, produced 3 haplotypes. L. kasmira population from Arabian Sea and Bengal strait had no connectivity. The highest haplotype diversity (Hd) value was found in Oman population of 0.956 and the lowest found in Somalia population, while Indonesia population has a moderate genetic diversity.
