Abstract
The Ib River is an important tributary of the Mahanadi River. The aim of the present study was to establish a reliable barcoding reference database for fish in Ib River. A total of 134 specimens, belonging to 42 species within 32 genera, 18 families, and 11 orders, were subjected to PCR amplification of the target region of mitochondrial genome and sequenced. The average length of the 134 barcodes was 648 bp. The average K2P distances within species, genera, and families were 0.13, 9.94, and 16.79%, respectively. The average interspecific distance was approximately 76.46 times higher than the mean intraspecific distance. The Barcode Index Number (BIN) discordance report showed that 134 specimens represented 42 BINs, of which 13 were singletons, 29 were taxonomically concordant while no species taxonomically discordant in our dataset. The barcode gap analysis demonstrated that 100% of the fish species examined could be discriminated by DNA barcoding. These results provide new insights into fish diversity in the Ib River and can provide a basis for the development of further studies on fish fauna.

Russian Journal of Genetics is a journal intended to make significant contribution to the development of genetics. The journal publishes reviews and experimental papers in the areas of theoretical and applied genetics. It presents fundamental research on genetic processes at molecular, cell, organism, and population levels, including problems of the conservation and rational management of genetic resources and the functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and medical genetics.
