CYTOCHROME B GENE SEQUENCES AND MITOCHONDRIAL CONTROL REGION SEQUENCES ANALYSIS IN ALBURNUS ALBURNUS AND VIMBA VIMBA INDIVIDUALS

The present study presents and compares two types of gene sequences belonging to the mitochondrial DNA, cytochrome b gene and the mitochondrial control region. For the extraction of DNA two species of fishes were used: Alburnus alburnus and Vimba vimba, both belonging to the family Cyprinidae. Comparing the gene sequences we were able to observe the mutational changes and differences that appeared in the gene structure of individuals coming from the same population.
