Abstract
Eggs of Japanese eel (Anguilla anguilla) were fertilized with cryopreserved sperm of European eel (A. anguilla) obtained from fish reared and matured in freshwater conditions.A new genomic PCR-RFLP marker was developed to distinguish the two species and detect maternally and paternally derived DNA fragments to genetically verify the hybrid nature of the offspring.
► Viable larvae hatched from A. japonica eggs and cryopreserved sperm of A. anguilla. ► Sperm originated from males maturating in freshwater. ► Hybridization was verified via new PCR-RFLP marker.
