Hilsa shad (Tenualosa ilisha) is Marine, pelagic and schooling in coastal waters, euryhaline, anadromous, ascending rivers for as much as 1,200 km, but usually about 50 to 100 km. This study was designed to evaluate population variation and differentiation of Tenualosa ilisha in the iranian waters of persian gulf using the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) marker. A total 26 fish specimens were collected by gill net from three stations (Abadan, Dayyer and Bandarabbas). A total of 32 reproducible bands amplified with five AFLP primer combinations were obtained from 26 fishes that were collected from three different locations in the northern of persian gulf. The percentage of polymorphic bands was 11.99%. Average of nei’s genetic diversity was 0.285±0.029, and average of shannon’s index was 0.429. The results of AMOVA analysis indicated that 20% of the genetic variation contained within populations and 80%.PCA analysis based on genetic distance showed at least three separate populations of T. ilisha in the northern Persian gulf.
