Linking Pedigree Information to the Gene Expression Phenotype to Understand Differential Family Survival Mechanisms in Highly Fecund Fish: A Case Study in the Larviculture of Pacific Bluefin Tuna.

Abstract excerpt

Mass spawning in fish culture often brings about a marked variance in family size, which can cause a reduction in effective population sizes in seed production for stock enhancement. This study reports an example of combined pedigree information and gene expression phenotypes to understand differential family survival mechanisms in early stages of Pacific bluefin tuna, Thunnus orientalis, in a mass culture tank....
