Abstract excerpt
Two selection methods, 1-stage selection (OSS) and 2-stage selection (TSS), for improving efficiency and profitability of selective breeding of yellow perch were evaluated, through examining the genetic and phenotypic parameters for BW of F(1) fish using microsatellite parentage assignment in this study. Approximately 94% of the sampled yellow perch progeny were assigned to single parental pairs using 8...
