The innovations of the "Omics Era" have ushered in significant advancements genetic improvement agriculturally important animal species through transforming genetics, genomics and breeding strategies. These were often coordinated, part, by support provided over 30 years 1993-2023 National Research Support Project 8 (NRSP8, Animal Genome Program, NAGRP) affiliate projects focused on enabling genomic discoveries livestock, poultry, aquaculture species. parallel advances demand strategic planning future research priorities. This paper, as an output from May 2023 Aquaculture Genomics, Genetics, Breeding Workshop, provides updated status resources for United States species, highlighting major achievements emerging Finfish shellfish genome omics enhance our understanding architecture heritability performance production traits.

Genomic selection can accelerate genetic progress in aquaculture breeding programmes, particularly for traits measured on siblings of candidates. However, it is not widely implemented most species, and remains expensive due to high genotyping costs. Genotype imputation a promising strategy that reduce costs facilitate the broader uptake genomic programmes. predict ungenotyped SNPs populations genotyped at low-density (LD), using reference population high-density (HD). In this study, we used datasets four species (Atlantic salmon, turbot, common carp Pacific oyster), phenotyped different traits, investigate efficacy genotype cost-effective selection. The had been HD, eight LD panels (300–6,000 SNPs) were generated silico . selected be: i) evenly distributed according physical position ii) minimise linkage disequilibrium between adjacent or iii) randomly selected. Imputation was performed with three software packages (AlphaImpute2, FImpute v.3 findhap v.4). results revealed faster achieved higher accuracies. accuracy increased increasing panel density both SNP methods, reaching correlations greater than 0.95 fish 0.80 oyster. terms prediction accuracy, imputed similarly, values very close HD panels, except pacific oyster dataset, where better panel. when without imputation, markers based either distance (instead randomly) resulted whereas near maximal independently panel, showing reliability.

Abstract Effective genetic management of the ~700 aquatic species cultured globally should be addressed for aquaculture to make a significant contribution towards meeting UN's Sustainable Development Goals. This article aims identify current status and challenges relating farmed resources (AqGR) recommendations its improvement. The lack information on many is critical constraint there need characterize these develop systems tools monitor types used their wild counterparts. Risk assessment needed when introducing non‐native managing native including developed types; policies improved increased awareness training in risk are required. To increase uptake selective breeding aquaculture, development adoption better more sustainable business models, long‐term financial instruments such as public–private partnerships. Training technology transfer between sectors can have impact, especially lower‐value species. Nationally applicable regulations adapted AqGR become operational effectively implemented by countries.

Abstract Selective breeding is a powerful tool for improving aquaculture production. A well-managed program essential, as populations can otherwise lose genetic diversity, leading to reduced selection response and inbreeding excesses. In such cases, diversity in broodstock must be restored by introducing individuals from external populations. However, this reduce the accumulated gains selective breeding. introduction of with superior phenotypes will allow restoration without sacrificing these gains. study, we demonstrated possibility using selectively bred (SB) randomly (RB) population coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ). Forty males growth were selected RB genomic crossed 127 collected females SB population, producing newly (NB) population. Genetic assessed statistics effective number alleles, allele richness, observed heterozygosity 11 microsatellite markers, was higher NB than RB. Additionally, fork length body weight compared among three after 12 months post-fertilization common tanks. The least-squares means similar between (164.9 mm 57.9 g) (161.1 53.7 g), while both significantly greater (150.4 43.0 g). Our results highlight effectiveness genome-assisted gene flow restoring compromising gain growth.

Selective breeding for production traits has yielded relatively rapid successes with high-fecundity aquaculture species. Discovering the genetic changes associated selection is an important goal understanding adaptation and can also facilitate better predictions about likely fitness of selected strains if they escape farms. Here, we hypothesize domestication as a change induced by inadvertent in culture. Our premise that standardized culture protocols generate parallel effects across independent strains. Using eastern oyster model newly developed 600K SNP array, this study tested multiple lines compared their progenitor wild populations. A single contrast was made between pooled (1-17 generations culture) all samples combined. Population structure analysis indicated rank order levels differentiation [wild - wild] < cultured] [cultured cultured]. genome scan to captive environment applied two methodologically distinct outlier tests versus strain identified total 1174 candidate SNPs. Contrasting revealed early evolutionary consequences terms genomic differentiation, standing diversity, effective population size, relatedness, runs homozygosity profiles, genome-wide linkage disequilibrium patterns. Random Forest used identify 37 SNPs had greatest discriminatory power bulked oysters.
