Abstract

Carangid fishes are abundant and highly lucrative in the commercial world. Since the evolutionary lineages of this family are still unknown, this work was completed to provide a thorough picture of the phylogenetic relationships among several species of the Carangidae family based on large subunit ribosomal RNA. For 16S rRNA, the understudied species' sequences ranged in length from 588 to 606 base pairs (bp). The accession numbers for the nucleotide sequences were gained from GenBank (MW165070.1 - MW165077.1). All species had A+T values that were greater than C+G, and the average A+T amount was 51.33%. The pairwise genetic distances amongst our characterized Carangid fish ranged from 0.0037 to 0.0322%. The lowest P-distance (0.0037) was existent between Carangoides bajadand Caranx sexfasciatus. While the highest value (0.0322) was present between Carangoides chrysophrysand Scomberoides lysan. Maximum Likelihood, Maximum Parsimony, and Neighbor-Joining were the three phylogenetic methodologies used to analyze the evolutionary relationships among the Carangid fishes. The results of the phylogenetic study were generally relatively comparable, supporting the sturdy relationship between the genera Caranx and Carangoides.
