Genetic diversity of Indian Major Carp, Labeo calbasu (Hamilton, 1822) populations inferred from microsatellite loci

► No test for linkage disequilibrium was found statistically significant for any pair of loci. ► Null alleles were found at loci Lro25* (Ganga) Lr28*, Lr29* and R3* (Ghaghra). ► Fst was found to be 3.5% based on analysis of nine polymorphic microsatellite loci. ► AMOVA presented 98.77% variability within populations from same geographical location.
