Abstract Penaeus (Litopenaeus) vannamei Boone, 1931 and Penaeus monodon Fabricius,
1798 provide 87% of the world's farmed marine shrimp, and 99% with another five species …

Pedigree information is important in selective breeding programs and hatchery management
of aquaculture. However, in aquaculture species, tagging of young fish with physical tags is …

Many aquaculture hatchery practices are detrimental to the long-term viability of restocking
and selective improvement programs. Small effective broodstock population sizes …

The kuruma shrimp Penaeus japonicus is widely distributed throughout the Indo-West
Pacific. Two morphologically similar varieties, I and II, are recognized from the South China …

The aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for body and carcass traits,
