Recent advancements in genomic technologies have led to the discovery and application of
DNA‐markers [eg single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] for the genetic improvement of …

High-throughput sequencing technologies have been extensively applied to genetics and
breeding in the aquaculture industry. To date, many aquaculture animal genomes have …

Major progress has been made with genomic and genetic studies in aquaculture in the last
decade. However, research on epigenetic regulation of aquaculture traits is still at an early …

Background Catfish farming is the largest segment of US aquaculture and research is
ongoing to improve production efficiency, including genetic selection programs to improve …

Background Body traits are generally controlled by several genes in vertebrates (ie
polygenes), which in turn make them difficult to identify through association mapping …

Through imputation of genotypes, genome‐wide association study (GWAS) and genomic
prediction (GP) using whole‐genome sequencing (WGS) data are cost‐efficient and feasible …

China produces nearly 90% of the world's abalone. The Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus
hannai, is the main cultured species. Because of the southward migration to subtropical …

The effects of thiamethoxam neonictinoids insecticide (TMX) commonly used in different
food crops and in veterinary practice were evaluated in freshwater fish exposed to sublethal …

Background Growth is a major economic production trait in aquaculture. Improvements in
growth performance will reduce time and cost for fish to reach market size. However, genes …

Growth is one of the most important traits from both a physiological and economic
perspective in aquaculture species. Thus, identifying the genomic regions and genes …
