Mass selection and inbreeding effects on a cultivated strain of Penaeus (Litopenaeus) vannamei in Venezuela

2005-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Artificial selection can significantly improve animal performance in culture, but one of the major concerns in genetic programs is inbreeding, which can affect fitness-related traits, and may have a significant negative impact on production. We present the analysis of production records for 11 generations (1990-2001) of a Venezuelan strain of Penaeus vannamei under mass selection and maintained in a closed reprodu...
