The aims of this work were to study the relationship between temperature and hatching rate and to
evaluate genetic diversity of giant frog (Limnonectes blythii) as parental stock in Mae Hong Son Inland
Fisheries Station, northern Thailand. The results showed that the optimal temperature for development of giant
frog hatching ranged from 19 to 27ÂșC, based on total hatch rate, viability of newly hatched larvae post-hatch,
and total mortality rate of eggs. Moreover, from November to February, the greatest percentage of hatching was
in January, with 40%. The outcome of determining the genetic diversity of parental generation by using seven
microsatellite loci was moderately high levels.
Key words: Genetic diversity, giant frog, morphology, relationship, , ,
