商品簡介
In aquaculture, genetics and genomics are essential for understanding and manipulating the genetic makeup of aquatic organisms. Genetics allows the study of individual genes that influence traits like growth rate and disease resistance in fish and shrimp. Genomics provides a broader perspective by analysing the entire set of genes, revealing how these genes interact and affect overall health and productivity in aquaculture species. These fields drive advancements in selective breeding programs, helping farmers develop more durable and resilient breeds that grow in controlled environments. Using genetic knowledge, aquaculture aims to enhance sustainable practices, meet global seafood demands, and reduce environmental impacts associated with traditional fishing methods. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of aquaculture. Also included in this book is a detailed explanation of the various concepts and applications of genetics and genomics. Scientists and students actively engaged in this field will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.
