Kurzbeschreibung
The first book to look at the functional use of genomic technologies in aquaculture production, Functional Genomics in Aquaculture provides an important overview of this rapidly evolving field. It explores specific applications related to traits such as reproduction, behavior, stress, and metabolism, including how to solve production limitation caused by reproductive inefficiency and disease. The use of genomic tools in key species ranging from shellfish to cod is also covered. An excellent guide for researchers and professionals wishing to understand current and future trends in the field.
Genomics has revolutionized biological research over the course of the last two decades. Genome maps of key agricultural species have offered increased understanding of the structure, organization, and evolution of animal genomes. Building upon this foundation, researchers are now emphasizing research on genome function. Published with the World Aquaculture Society, Functional Genomics in Aquaculture looks at the advances in this field as they directly relate to key traits and species in aquaculture production.
Functional Genomics in Aquaculture opens with two chapters that provide a useful general introduction to the field of functional genomics. The second section of the book focuses on key production traits such as growth, development, reproduction, nutrition, and physiological response to stress and diseases. The final five chapters focus on a variety of key aquaculture species. Examples looking at our understanding of the functional genomes of salmonids, Mediterranean sea bass, Atlantic cod, catfish, shrimp, and molluscs, are included in the book.
Providing valuable insights and discoveries into the functional genomes of finfish and shellfish species, Functional Genomics in Aquaculture, will be an invaluable resource to researchers and professionals in aquaculture, genetics, and animal science.
