초록

The objective of the present study was to analyze genetic variation and characteristics in rainbow trout(Oncorhynchus mykiss) using amplified fragment length polymorphism(AFLP) method as molecular genetic technique, to evaluate the usefulness of AFLP as genetic markers, and to compared the efficiency of agarose and polyacrylamide sequencing gels. The amplified products were performed by agarose and sequencing gel electrophoresis to detect AFLP band patterns, respectively. Using 9 primer combinations, total of 141 AFLP bands were produced, 108 bands(82.4%) of which were polymorphic in agarose gels. In sequencing gels, total of 288 bands were generated, and 220 bands (76.4%) were polymorphic. The level of bandsharing(BS) ranged from 0.18 to 0.32 for the 9 primer combinations tested, with a mean of 0.24. Consequently, AFLP markers of these rainbow trout could be used as genetic information such as species identification, genetic relationship or analysis of genome structure, and selection aids for genetic improvement of economically importment traits in fish species.
