Abstract excerpt
Background/Objectives: Clariid catfishes are a cornerstone of Southeast Asian aquaculture, where intensive breeding and interspecific hybridization have significantly decreased genetic diversity. To address the limited understanding of growth-governing molecular determinants, we characterized the genomic architecture and evolutionary dynamics of the myogenic factor 5 (Myf5) gene, a master regulator of myogenesis,...
