Abstract
Abstract Shrimp aquaculture over the years has made tremendous progress. The application of modern biotechnological tools, including next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques, has revolutionized the genomics of commercially important aquaculture species. Genetic improvement programmes targeting desired economic traits are being implemented worldwide with knowledge gained through development of genetic resources. These genetic resources form the basis to understand and develop the strategy for selective breeding of aquaculture species for improved performance. In view of serious disease outbreaks in shrimp aquaculture, and lack of understanding of key biological, reproductive and physiological functions at the molecular level, it has become critical to develop and exploit the available genomic resources to the full potential. This review presents recent progress in development of genetic resources such as transcriptomics, genomics, DNA markers and linkage maps having future potential in selective breeding programmes for commercially important penaeid species.
期刊介绍:
Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture provides an important forum for the publication of up-to-date reviews covering a broad range of subject areas including management, aquaculture, taxonomy, behavior, stock identification, genetics, nutrition, and physiology. Issues concerning finfish and aquatic invertebrates prized for their economic or recreational importance, their value as indicators of environmental health, or their natural beauty are addressed. An important resource that keeps you apprised of the latest changes in the field, each issue of Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture presents useful information to fisheries and aquaculture scientists in academia, state and federal natural resources agencies, and the private sector.
