Genetic parameters for tolerance to gill-associated virus under challenge-test conditions in the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)
2020-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Diseases in shrimp aquaculture cause significant economic losses, particularly those caused by viruses. Genetic improvement of disease tolerance through selective breeding can be an important tool for managing the risk of disease in shrimp farming as long as the trait has a genetic basis (i.e. heritable) and is able to be accurately and reliably measured. This study presents the first estimates of genetic variatio...
