Abstract

Groupers are among the fish groups that are difficult to recognize due to their high morphological similarities. Therefore, molecular techniques, particularly DNA barcoding, are extensively utilized to differentiate this fish group. This study aimed to analyze and validate six grouper species belonging to the Epinephelidae family that were harvested from Langsa district waters in Aceh province, Indonesia, based on DNA barcode data. It was conducted from June to December 2021, with the fish specimens collected from fishers at fish landing sites and the fish market in Langsa City, Aceh province. A total of 22 grouper sequences belonging to six species were generated, namely Epinephelus coioides, E. bleekeri, E. malabaricus, E. erythrurus, E. sexfasciatus and Mycteroperca poecilonotus (formerly Epinephelus poecilonotus). Genetic distance within these species ranged from 0.10 to 0.73% (average: 0.40%). Notably, E. malabaricus and E. coioides exhibited the closest genetic kinship (4.07%), while E. sexfasciatus and M. poecilonotus displayed the greatest genetic distance (19.33%). This study provides the first DNA reference for grouper in Langsa district, Indonesia, with significant implications for future sustainable grouper management.

Abstract

The groupers are a group of demersal fish that live in tropical and subtropical areas and are mostly linked to coral reefs. The fish are highly valued in international markets and are subjected to overfishing in the wild. Accurate fish resource identification knowledge is essential for sustainable fisheries management. This research is aimed to generate a reference COI sequence library of grouper species caught in Simeulue and Banyak Islands, Aceh. The study was conducted from April-September 2021 at sixteen fish landing sites in Simeulue and Banyak Islands. In total, this study generated 70 COI sequences representing 20 grouper species. Epinephelus (54%) was the most prevalent grouper genus at the study site, followed by Cephalopholis (19%), Plectropomus (13%), Variola (12%), Hyporthodus (1%), and Anyperodon (1%). According to the IUCN classification, 17 species (85%) fall into the category of Least Concern, two (10%) fall into the category of Vulnerable, and one (5%) falls into the category of Data Deficient. The average genetic distance based on the Kimura-2-Parameter (K2P) between specimens was 0.51% at the species level and 8.34% at the genus level. Overall, this study has provided the COI sequence database of grouper for the Simeulue and Banyak Islands.
