Abstract

The shark genus Carcharhinus faces high exploitation pressure in the Western Waters of Aceh, while comprehensive genetic data to support conservation remains limited. This study aimed to identify species, analyze nucleotide composition, and reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of Carcharhinus sharks using the Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as a molecular marker. A total of 14 tissue samples were collected from three fish landing sites: Aceh Jaya, West Aceh, and Southwest Aceh. Standard procedures included DNA extraction, PCR amplification, sequencing, and bioinformatic analysis using BLAST for identification and MEGA for phylogenetic analysis via the Neighbor-Joining method. Molecular identification successfully confirmed the presence of six species: Carcharhinus falciformis (n=7), C. sorrah (n=3), C. brevipinna (n=1), C. amboinensis (n=1), C. amblyrhynchos (n=1), and C. limbatus (n=1), with identity matches ranging from 99.23-100%. Nucleotide composition analysis revealed a consistent bias towards Adenine and Thymine bases (AT-rich), a common characteristic of the elasmobranch mitochondrial genome. The reconstructed phylogenetic tree demonstrated that each species formed a solid monophyletic group with high bootstrap support. The analysis also confirmed C. brevipinna and C. amboinensis as sister taxa. No clear geographic population structure was found for widespread species, indicating high population connectivity within these waters. This molecular baseline data is crucial for supporting evidence-based fisheries management and conservation strategies for threatened shark species in Indonesia.

Abstract

Priacanthus tayenus fish, often referred to as Swanggi, were found during fishing activities in the Cituis area, Banten. This indicates that the potential population of this fish remains substantial and has high economic value. A total of 30 fish were obtained, consisting of 11 female fish and 19 male fish. This study used the purposive sampling method. Analysis of the relationship between the length and weight of Swanggi fish from the waters of Cituis showed a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9305. This figure indicates that the growth of the Swanggi fish is isometric. The length of the Swanggi fish (PB) increases with increasing morphological size. Food availability is thought to influence these correlation results. The availability of food plays a crucial role in the growth process. These correlation results indicate that food availability in the waters is still sufficient to support the life of the Swanggi fish.
