Common DNA fragments of the ${\beta}$-globin gene were observed from six races of the adult common carp: Hybrid-Yamato, Japanese wild type, Mirror, Suwa-Yamato, Scale German, and Saku-Yamato. Chromosomal DNAs isolated from the above six races were digested with restriction endonucleased EcoRI and PstI. The digested fragments were transferred onto nitrocellulose filter and hybridized with a probe of carp ${\beta}$-globin cDNA. Molecular sizes of the hybridized DNA fragments digested with EcoRI were 3.6Kb(Kilo base), 4.3Kb and 15Kb in Hybrid-Yamato, Japanese wild type, Mirror, Scale German and Saku-Yamato carp DNAs. In Scale German and Saku-Yamato carp DNAs, two and one more hybridized DNA fragments were observed, respectively. Molecular sizes of the hybridized DNA fragments digested with PstI were 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb and 9.2Kb in Hybrid-Yamato, 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb and 9.2Kb in Japanese wild type, 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb, and 13Kb in Mirror, 2,2Kb, 5,5Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb, 9.2Kb and13Kb in Scale German, and 2.2Kb, 5.5Kb, 6.5Kb, 9.2Kb and Saku-Yamato carp DNA. Therefore, depending on carps, three to six DNA fragments were hybridized with ${\beta}$-globin gene probe. Thus it indicated polymorphysm in the globin gene family of carp.
