Caru (Pahang) was carried out using starch gel electrophoresis. The analysis on eleven enzyme systems was found to be coded by 25 and 26 loci. The mean of observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.08 to 0.11 and the percentage of proportion of polymorphic loci varied from 61.54% to 73.08%. The extents of genetic identities ranged from 0.81 to 0.98. %U http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/ijb/article/view/2935
