Abstract:
      The fragments of 350 bp in 28S rRNA from the closely related monogenea of trematoda,Neobenedenia girellae and N.melleni are obtained by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified using a couple of special primers and then sequenced.The results show that the comparison of 28S rRNA sequences,with only a base varying in 337bp accounting for 0.3% genetic difference,from the relative species N.girellae and N.melleni parasitized on the different fishes in different farms displays that they possess a very high genetic similarity of 99.7%,higher than that of 99.41% for the single species N.melleni sampled in different areas,and the intraspecific divergence of N.melleni is 0.59%.Meanwhile,the interspecific differences between the two Neobenedenia and three Benedenia (i.e.,B.lutjani,B.rohdei and B.seriolae) range from 2.08% to11.73%.In addition,UPGMA and MP molecular phylogenetic trees are constructed and proved to be consistent with each other.Though the morphological characteristics and the results of genetic diversity for the two Neobenedenia show a high similarity,whether they belong to a single species or not are still undefined,and the more genes of them should be further investigated,in combination with the systematical and detailed morphological study.
