The present study investigates the hybridization among three close species in genus Acanthopagrus: A. schlegelii, A. berda, and A. latus, using artificial fertilization with cryopreserved sperm. All crosses from different species were fertilizable and hatchable. The fertilization rate(75.41±3.00% ~ 86.11±1.39%)and hatching rate(56.72±5.17% ~ 67.11±6.06%)between the closest phylogenetic relationship, i.e. A. schlegelii × A. berda, are significantly higher than other interspecific crossings. Fertilization rates from crosses between distant species, such as A. latus × A. berda(21.94±6.15% ~ 24.97±5.92%), and A. latus × A. schlegelii(11.61±1.54% ~ 34.54±4.62%), are significantly lower than others. The results coincided with the interspecific phylogenetic relationships of genus Acanthopagrus, implying that post-mating isolation mechanism is related to phylogeny. Since there are overlapping in mating season, geographical distribution, and ecological characteristics between A. schlegelii and A. berda, hybrids from accidental fertilization is probable.
Furthermore, we confirm that the population of A. berda from Dapeng Bay is a valid species (A. Taiwanensis) that is closest to A. berda in terms of genetic structure. More studies are needed to examine whether it can hybrid with other congeneric species.
