Polyphyletic Origin of Ornamental Goldfish

Abstract: Mitochondrial DNA fragment of cytb was compared in all species Carassius auratus complex and three forms of ornamental goldfish. It is shown that the phylogenetic relationships between complex species correspond to the existing views, based on mtDNA data and geographical distribution. All forms of ornamental goldfish have a monophyletic origin from Chinese goldfish C. auratus auratus. The analysis showed that three nuclear genes (rps7, GH1 and Rh) in the two forms of ornamental goldfish (Oriental twintail gold… Show more

“…Crucian carp ( Carassius auratus ) is a genus of Carassius in the family Cyprinidae ( Xiao et al., 2011 ). More than 1000 years ago, crucian carp was domesticated in China and introduced into Europe and most parts of the world since the 17th century ( Chen, 1956 ; Balon, 2004 ; Gao et al., 2012 ; Podlesnykh et al., 2015 ). It has the advantages of fast growth, short reproductive cycle, tender meat and high nutritional value ( Liao et al., 2013 ).…”

“…Ornamental fish keeping in its present form was made possible by the beginning of air transport, permitting the utilization of fish in distant parts of the world and their transportation to markets in developed countries nowadays (Malik et al, 2014). So, the fish must not only be attentiongrabbing but also healthy enough to resist long air transportation (Podlesnykh et al, 2015). Import and export of ornamental fish are approximately handling up to one and a half billion fishes.…”

“…An obvious difference between GF and RCC is that GF has distinct split double tails (twin tail), whereas RCC does not. Although some studies have suggested that GF evolved from crucian carp ( Podlesnykh et al, 2015 ), the direct evidence of its evolutionary pathway is lacking. Hybridization promotes species formation and the adaptive radiation of animals and plants ( Mallet, 2007 ).…”
