Genomic prediction using Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) genotype by sequencing platform has not been reported in yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi). The principal aim of this study was to address knowledge gap and assess predictive ability genomic Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (gBLUP) for traits commercial importance a population comprising 752 individuals that had DNA sequence phenotypic records growth (body weight, fork length condition index). gBLUP method used due its...
The genetic resources available for the commercially important fish species Yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) are relative sparse. To overcome this, we aimed 1) to develop a linkage map this species, and 2) identify markers/variants associated with economically traits in (with an emphasis on body weight). Genetic genomic analyses were conducted using 13,898 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs) generated from new high through-put genotyping by sequencing platform, Diversity Arrays...
Abstract Captive breeding programs and aquaculture production have commenced worldwide for the globally distributed yellowtail kingfish ( Seriola lalandi ), captive bred fingerlings are being shipped from Southern Hemisphere to be farmed in Northern Hemisphere. It was recently proposed that Pacific S . comprise at least three distinct species diverged more than 2 million years ago. Here, we tested hypothesis of different “species” using novel genomic data (namely single nucleotide...
Wildlife diseases are major players in local and global extinctions. Effective disease surveillance, management conservation strategies require accurate estimates of pathogen prevalence. Yet detection wild animals remains challenging. Current gold standards often samples collected through veterinary examination, but this method is costly, intensive, invasive, requires specialised staff equipment. Collection non-invasive samples, such as scats, an effective monitoring tool which can be...
Aquaculture mollusc production is predominantly from Asia, with more than 80% of the total biomass produced in China. Vietnam’s annual growing rapidly but comparatively small given its coastal resources. A significant challenge for future production, and oysters particular, supply high-quality spat. Most spat Vietnam comes local wild sources or imported Particularly case oysters, where collection low importation oyster into other jurisdictions not controlled, unreliable presents a...
Abstract Grouper aquaculture around Asia is impacted by the nervous necrosis virus (NNV) and, in response, host resistance to this infection being considered as a trait for selection. However efficient selection may be confounded if there are different genetic strains of NNV within and between regions over years. This study uses statistical approaches assessment “characteristic attributes” (i.e. nucleotide positions that discriminate among strains) assess whether published new RNA2 cds...
In recent decades, developing countries with traditionally strong links aquaculture have adopted genetic improvement programs for newly domesticated and captively bred species. Accurate genealogical pedigree information is an essential tool efficient successful this type of was obtained by separate rearing families physical tagging the animals. More recently, molecular based pedigrees (e.g. using SNPs) becoming a potential option, which also may permit communal at stage earlier than usual,...
Cathepsins are lysosomal/cysteine proteases belong to papain family (C1 family) that is involved in intracellular protein degradation, antigen processing, hormone maturation, and immune responses. In this study, member of cathepsin was identified from Manila clam (Mc-Cathepsin D) investigated the response against brown ring disease (BRD) causing Vibrio tapetis challenge. The Mc-Cathepsin D gene encodes characteristic features typical for including eukaryotic viral aspartyl protease signature...
