| Abstract | ||||
| To conserve species and determine suitable management plans, the insidious and accurate identification of a species is fundamental. Despite the commercial importance of Lutjanidae family, the phylogeny of Lutjanidae has not been fully studied. Thus, this study focused on the phylogeny of this family using mitochondrial 16S rRNA sequences in four species; Lutjanus fulviflamma, Lutjanus monostigma, Lutjanus bohar and Lutjanus kasmira.The generated bands of 16S rRNA in the four species prolong from 561 to 575 bp. The sequences of 16S rRNA were displayed in GenBank/NCBI to gain the accession numbers (OQ803478.1 - OQ803481.1). The average frequencies of adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G) were 28.91, 21.93, 25.51 and 23.65%, respectively. | ||||
