  abstract = {{E}ndemic to two lakes ({A}yamaru and {U}ter) of {W}est {P}apua ({I}ndonesia), the {B}oeseman's {R}ainbowfish {M}elanotaenia boesemani {A}llen & {C}ross, 1980 is a very popular ornamental freshwater fish. {A}s a result, this rainbowfish species faces great threats and is on the red list of endangered species. {T}herefore, rearing of this species in aquaculture systems appears to be a promising solution to limit capture of wild specimens and prevent its extinction. {A}lthough its reproduction cycle has been controlled for more than 30 years, very few farms still raise {M}. boesmani, probably due to the problems reported by the farmers, such as decline of production, higher proportion of females per spawning, loss of coloration, lower growth rate and fecundity. {U}sing 12 microsatellites previously developed for this species, comparison of genotypes within six farms around {J}akarta indicated that all reared strains originated from {A}yamaru {L}ake. {N}o deficit in heterozygotes was evidenced, suggesting that there was no major inbreeding in these reared populations. {G}enotype analysis also suggested that {M}. boesemani species is a metapopulation composed of genetically differentiated populations. {A}ltogether, these results indicate that the problems experienced by the farmers are due not to inbreeding depression but to other factors such as inadequate management and/or poor water quality. {Y}et, increasing aquaculture production is probably the most effective way to alleviate the pressure that {M}. boesemani faces in its natural environment.},
