description <i>Hypophthalmichthys molitrix</i> is one of the four most important fish in China and has high breeding potential. However, simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers developed on <i>H. molitrix</i> genome level for genetic diversity analysis are limited. In this study, the distribution characteristics of SSRs in the assembled <i>H. molitrix</i> genome were analyzed, and new markers were developed to preliminarily evaluate the genetic diversity of the four breeding populations. A total of 368,572 SSRs were identified from the <i>H. molitrix</i> genome. The total length of SSRs was 6,492,076 bp, accounting for 0.77% of the total length of the genome sequence. The total frequency and total density were 437.73 loci/Mb and 7713.16 bp/Mb, respectively. Among the 2–6 different nucleotide repeat types, SSRs were dominated by di-nucleotide repeats (204,873, 55.59%), and AC/GT was the most abundant motif. The number of SSRs on each chromosome was positively correlated with the length. The 13 pairs of markers developed were used to analyze the genetic diversity of four cultivated populations in Hubei Province. The results showed that the genetic diversity of the four populations was low, and the ranges of alleles (Na), effective alleles (Ne), observed heterozygosity (Ho), and Shannon’s index information (I) were 3.538–4.462, 2.045–2.461, 0.392–0.450, and 0.879–0.954, respectively. Genetic variation occurs mainly among individuals within populations (95.35%). UPGMA tree and Bayesian analysis showed that four populations could be divided into two different branches. Therefore, the genome-wide SSRs were effectively in genetic diversity analysis on <i>H. molitrix.</i>
