Garra gotyla, commonly known as sucker head fish belongs to family Cyprinidae and distributed all along the mountain regions of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar. Different geographically isolated populations of the species were assessed using few microsatellite markers for future conservation and strategic breeding plan. Three wild populations of G. gotyla were analysed for genetic variability using 20 microsatellite markers. The mean observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.11 to 0.85. The mean no of alleles ranged from 3-11 with an average number of alleles per locus was 5.7 and were found to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) (p > 0.05). Polymorphism Information Content (PIC) ranged from 0.42 to 0.87. Overall Fst value of all the samples combined over all the microsatellite loci was found to be 0.173. The present genetic status of these three populations was also discussed for future application in genetic improvement of the species.
