Abstract
Sarcoplasmic protein extracts of snook (Centropomus undecimalis) and fat snook (C. parallelus) were compared by thin-layer polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing. A pH gradient from 3.0 (anodally) to 10.0 (cathodally) was used to distinguish protein phenotypes of the two species. The selected gradient conditions failed to differentiate between pond cultured C. undicimalis derived from Florida broodstock and wild-caught C. undecimalis from Texas.
