Identification of three Ictalurus species in Mexico using Cytochrome Oxidase I gene sequencing

ABSTRACT Channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, is one of the most important fish on Mexican aquaculture and despite its productive potential, there is very few information regarding the distribution of Ictalurus species in Mexican territory. Sequencing of Cytochrome Oxidase I gene has proved to be v...
