TL;DR: A general review of the current status, challenges and future research needs of aquaculture genomics, genetics, and breeding is provided, with a focus on major Aquaculture species in the United States: catfish, rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon, tilapia, striped bass, oysters, and shrimp.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of citizen science in addressing grand challenges in food and agriculture research.

TL;DR: It is argued there is no better time to foster greater collaboration between these fields given the trend of shrinking Extension programmes, the increasing need to apply innovative solutions to address rising demands on agricultural systems, and the exponential growth of the field of citizen science.
