Identification of Auxis thazard in preserved fish consists of restriction endonuclease based gene amplification

摘要

The identification of Auxis thazard in preserved fish comprises amplification of a 187 pb fragment (BDR) of the cytochrome b gene in the mitochondrial DNA by the use of a restriction endonuclease. This facilitates differentiation relative to other species used as substitutes for Auxis thazard.
