Abstract excerpt
Growth is an economically important trait in bighead carp and other aquaculture species that affects production efficiency. Interestingly, the head of the bighead carp has a high market value in China; therefore, it is important to study the genetic bases of both growth and body shape traits. A genome-wide association study was performed based on 2b-RAD sequencing of 776 individuals to identify SNPs associated...
