Sardinella lemuru is pelagic commodities that has economic values for the Indonesian. S. lemuru has some major advantages, such as abundant population on Indonesian marine, low price, and has omega-3 for the human body. The high demands of lemuru fish cause a high rate of cached, that can cause the risk of population degradation. Proper management of these commodities are needed to decrease the risk impact, that can be done rightly based on the equal value of information, and one of them is genetic diversity. This research compiles the recent researches about the genetic diversity of Sardinella lemuru in Indonesia waters to get the explanation about lemuru fish diversity. The value of genetic diversity observed is based on the diversity value of Haplotype (Hd), because these two values have a positive correlation to make a whole representation from a commodity. The results of this review show that the genetic diversity of lemuru fish on Indonesian marine territorial has the high-value category. These results explain that in the high activities of fishing, lemuru fish genetically still have a high diversity that leads to the conclusion lemuru fish commodities has a high-level ability to adapt from environmental conditions.
