Keywords:Deep-sea, Amphipod, Genetic connectivity

In recent years, there has been an international debate on the development of marine mineral resources with regard to their impact on the deep-sea environment and ecosystems and their conservation. Environmental guidelines by the International Seabed Authority recommend a survey to understand the genetic connectivity of representative species as one of the environmental baseline surveys. As the predominant deep-sea amphipods are easy to recruit from a relatively large number of sites, they have attracted attention as a target for genetic connectivity analysis. In this study, genetic analyses were conducted to understand the genetic connectivity of one of the deep-sea amphipod species, Paralicella tenuipes, collected around the Clarion-Clipperton Fissure Zone off south-east Hawaii. In this presentation, we report on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequence, mitochondrial genome sequence and the results of the analysis using single nucleotide polymorphism data from MIG-seq in the P. tenuipes.
