Various methods for the detection and analysis of genetic polymorphisms at the DNA-level have been developed. Notable polymorphisms may be found in the mitochondrial DNA and the minisatellites and microsatellites of genomic DNA. Such polymorphisms are exceedingly numerous and may provide a promising basis for a number of scientific as well as practical applications in the genetic studies in tilapia. An expanded number of genetic markers would increase statistical insights on marker-based population studies which are highly relevant in the assessment and improvement of commercially important stocks of Tilapia. In addition, utilization of these genetic markers could contribute to the rapid elaboration of piscine genomic maps and to the development of markers for health and production-related traits of fish
