Since its introduction in 2001, genomic selection (GS) has progressed rapidly. As a research
and application hot topic, GS has led to a revolution in the field of animal and plant breeding …

Within aquaculture industries, selection based on genomic information (genomic selection)
has the profound potential to change genetic improvement programs and production …

Abstract Background The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is a bivalve mollusc with vital
roles in coastal ecosystems and aquaculture globally. While extensive genomic tools are …

Advancing the production efficiency and profitability of aquaculture is dependent upon the
ability to utilize a diverse array of genetic resources. The ultimate goals of aquaculture …

Oysters are one of the most commercially important shellfish species and have been
cultured for thousands of years. Oyster aquaculture supports the major aquaculture …

Genomic selection can accelerate genetic progress in aquaculture breeding programmes,
particularly for traits measured on siblings of selection candidates. However, it is not widely …

Pacific oysters are a key aquaculture species globally, and genetic improvement via
selective breeding is a major target. Genomic selection has the potential to expedite genetic …

Disease dynamics in the wild are influenced by a number of ecological and evolutionary
factors not addressed by traditional laboratory-based characterization of pathogens. Here …

Abstract The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is a widely distributed marine bivalve of great
ecological and economic importance. In this study, we provide a high‐quality chromosome …

The production of most farmed molluscs, including mussels, oysters, scallops, abalone, and
clams, is heavily dependent on natural seed from the plankton. Closing the lifecycle of …
