The large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) is an economically important marine fish in China. Inheritance of 22 heterozygous microsatellite loci was examined in normal crossed diploid families and meio-gynogenetic families in P. crocea. Two gynogenetic families were produced via inhibition of the second polar body in eggs fertilized with UV-irradiated sperm. The ratio of gynogenesis was proven to be 100% and 96.9% in the two families, respectively. Of the 22 examined loci, 4 showed a segregation distortion in both control and gynogenetic families. Microsatellite-centromere (M-C) map dista...
