Over the last three decades, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has declared as the most popular marker of molecular diversity, for a combination of technical ease-of-use considerations, and supposed biological and evolutionary properties of a species. The present study examined partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequence of mitochondrial DNA for phylogenetic positioning of Puntius ticto among eight species of genus Puntius and its suitability to determine the genetic differentiation in among genus Puntius. The 05 samples of P. ticto were collected from Halali reservoir were analyzed mtcox1 gene of mitochondrial partial regions were sequenced and compared with the online database available on NCBI (National Centre for Biotechnology Information, USA) for rest of seven species (P. sophore, P. sarana, P. amphibious, P. chola, P. conchonius, P. dorsalis and P. gelius).
