HERNANDEZ and ROSARIO MARTINABSTRACTRestriction site analysis of PCR products from a conservedregion of the cytochrome b gene has been used for the spe-cific identification of sole (Solea solea), European plaice(Pleuronectes platessa) and flounder (Platichthys flesus).Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the cyto-chrome b gene using universal primers produced a 359 bpfragment in all species analyzed. Digestion of the PCR prod-ucts with Nci I, Sau 3AI and Hinf I endonucleases, followed byagarose gel electrophoresis of the digested PCR products,yielded specific profiles that enabled direct identification ofthe fish species. This methodology should prove useful forenforcing labeling regulations in the authentication of flatfishspecies.Key Words: species, identification, flatfish, PCR, cyto-chrome b
