AB  - Molt Inhibiting Hormone (MIH) is a neuropeptide member belonging to the eyestalk CHH family. It is a multifunctional protein, playing a major role in the molting activity of shrimp. <I>MIH</I> gene is one of the candidate genes for detecting polymorphisms associated with the growth traits. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of the <I>MIH</I> gene 3 exons on white shrimp growth traits. Primers for the 3 exons of <I>MIH</I> gene were designed from shrimp genomic sequences. Polymorphism was detected by DNA sequencing and the PCR-SSCP method was developed to genotype 340 samples.
