Genome-wide association study and genomic prediction for resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in hybrid red tilapia (Oreochromis spp.)
2020-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcosis is a major disease that causes severe mortality in tilapia aquaculture worldwide. Although the conventional BLUP family selection to enhance disease resistance in a commercial red tilapia stock was successful, the response was low due to the low heritability of the traits. An alternative strategy is the utilization of genomic information to identify the best performing candidates within families. I...
