Abstract Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism(AFLP) markers were successfully employed to analyze15 Artemia species and strains for geneticdiversity. AFLP markers are extremely sensitive toeven a small sequence variation. They are stable andmore polymorphic than RAPD. Twelve pairs of primercombinations were used to detect AFLP bands, of which384 were polymorphic, and DNA fingerprintings wereobtained by using silver staining. The polymorphismanalysis leads us to the following conclusions: 1. Artemia tibetiana seems to differentiate from A.sinica. 2. The parthenogenetic populations frominland salt lakes could follow an evolutionary paththat is different from that of the coastalparthenogenetic populations.
