Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaculture: global status and trends
John Bostock,Brendan McAndrew,Randolph H. Richards,Kim Jauncey,Trevor C. Telfer,Kai Lorenzen,David C. Little,Lindsay G. Ross,Neil Handisyde,Iain Gatward,Richard A. Corner +10 more
TL;DR: Increased output is likely to require expansion in new environments, further intensification and efficiency gains for more sustainable and cost-effective production, and the trend towards enhanced intensive systems with key monocultures remains strong.
Journal ArticleDOI
A genetic linkage map of a cichlid fish, the tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
TL;DR: A genetic map for a tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, using DNA markers is constructed, a starting point for the mapping of single loci and quantitative traits in cichlid fishes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Major quantitative trait loci affect resistance to infectious pancreatic necrosis in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).
Ross D. Houston,Chris Haley,Alastair Hamilton,Derrick R Guy,A. E. Tinch,John B. Taggart,Brendan McAndrew,Stephen Bishop +7 more
TL;DR: The identified genomewide quantitative trait loci can be applied in marker-assisted selection programs to improve the resistance of salmon to IPN and reduce disease-related mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamete quality and broodstock management in temperate fish
Herve Migaud,J. Gordon Bell,Elsa Cabrita,Brendan McAndrew,Andrew Davie,Julien Bobe,María Paz Herráez,Manuel Carrillo +7 more
TL;DR: An overview of methods to assess egg/sperm quality and many of the most important factors affecting gamete production and quality, including broodstock nutrition, environmental and spawning induction protocols, genetic management, gamete preservation and new reproductive strategies are given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning of brain aromatase gene and expression of brain and ovarian aromatase genes during sexual differentiation in genetic male and female Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus
TL;DR: Findings clearly suggest that ovarian aromatase plays a decisive role in sexual differentiation in this species and that this is achieved by down‐regulation of the expression of this gene in males.
