In order to study the genetic diversity of Hara trees in the coastal waters of Hormozgan province, using 40 RAPD molecular samples, 40 samples of Hara leaves were collected at different stations (ports of Jask, Dumitry, Tiba and Qeshm Island) and transferred to the laboratory. After extraction of DNA They were examined by 30 primers in polymerase chain reaction. The results showed that the highest mean genetic variation in Qeshm population was 0 458 with a standard deviation of 0.033 and the lowest mean of genetic diversity in Jask population was 0.423 with a standard deviation of 0.056. Also, using the PopGene software, the average Shannon information index was 0.643 for four populations. The value of Fst index was 011/0 and the gene flow rate was 25.854, and the UPGMA dendrogram, based on the Nei genetic distance, did not show a clear separation between the populations. Also, molecular variance analysis showed that there is a high variation (99%) within the studied populations. The results of this research can provide useful information for conservation and management programs of this kind with indigenous value of Iran

Some biological characteristics and population dynamic of Platycephalus indicus were studied during one year from May 2011 to March 2012 in the coastal waters of Bandar Abbas. A total of 1106 samples were collected. Also, each month 35 fish was choosen and transferred to the laboratory for evaluation of spawning season.The ages of 279 specimens were determined by sectioned otoliths. The ages of the females were estimated to be between 1 to more than 7,while the ages of the males were from 1 to more than 4.The relationship between weight and length (Total length) can be expressed as W=0/004L3/16 35 for male and W = 0/0042L3/1293 for female.This equation hndicates that keeled mullet has isometric growth. The values for natural mortality (M) resultant coefficient were M = 0.886 year-1 for females and 0.736 year-1 for males, and the estimated Z values were 1.43 year-1 for females and 1.62 year-1 for males. The mean value of the gonadosomatic index (GSI) for males and females was 0.82 ± 0.25 and 2.477 ± 0.59 respectively in each year. The mean values of the hepatosomatic index (HIS) were 0.89 ± 0.20 for males and 1.28 ± 0.16 for females. The highest HSI values for this location were observed in January, and the lowest were in April.
