Development of a Medium Density Combined-Species SNP Array for Pacific and European Oysters (Crassostrea gigas and Ostrea edulis)
Alejandro P. Gutierrez,Frances Turner,Karim Gharbi,Richard Talbot,Natalie R Lowe,Carolina Peñaloza,Mark McCullough,Paulo A. Prodöhl,Tim P. Bean,Ross D. Houston +9 more
TL;DR: A combined-species, medium density SNP array for Pacific oyster and European flat oyster, and it is revealed that the array can be used to clearly distinguish between both families based on identity-by-state (IBS) clustering parental assignment software.
Journal ArticleDOI
A chromosome-level genome assembly for the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas
Carolina Peñaloza,Alejandro P. Gutierrez,Lel Eory,Shan Wang,Ximing Guo,Alan Archibald,Tim P. Bean,Ross D. Houston +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the creation and annotation of a chromosome-level assembly for C. gigas, which was then scaffolded into 10 pseudo-chromosomes using both Hi-C sequencing and a high-density linkage map.

A chromosome-level genome assembly for the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas)
Carolina Peñaloza,Alejandro P. Gutierrez,Lel Eory,Shan Wang,Ximing Guo,Alan Archibald,Tim P. Bean,Ross D. Houston +7 more
TL;DR: This new chromosome-level assembly will be an enabling resource for genetics and genomics studies to support fundamental insight into bivalve biology, as well as for genetic improvement of C. gigas in aquaculture breeding programmes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A SNP in the 5' flanking region of the myostatin-1b gene is associated with harvest traits in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).
TL;DR: The results indicate that a variation in the 5′ flanking region of the myostatin gene is associated with the genetic regulation of growth in Atlantic salmon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Validation of an Open Access SNP Array for Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Carolina Peñaloza,Diego Robledo,Agustin Barría,Trọng Quốc Trịnh,Mahirah Mahmuddin,Pamela Wiener,John A. H. Benzie,John A. H. Benzie,Ross D. Houston +8 more
TL;DR: A ∼65K SNP array was designed based on SNPs discovered from whole-genome sequence data from a GIFT breeding nucleus population and the overlap with SNP datasets from wild fish populations and several other farmed Nile tilapia strains, anticipated that this SNP array will be an enabling tool for population genetics andtilapia breeding research, facilitating consistency and comparison of results across studies.
