Description

Selection and Breeding Programs in Aquaculture by Springer explores the critical gap between aquaculture and terrestrial livestock production. While most land-based farm animals are derived from domesticated populations, over 90 percent of aquaculture production still relies on genetically unimproved stocks. This text examines why systematic and efficient breeding programs to improve economically important traits have been rare in the industry, with salmonid species being a notable exception. By comparing the history of aquaculture as a biological production system to the advancements seen in land-based farming, this book provides a foundation for understanding the necessity of genetic improvement in farmed species. It addresses the current reliance on undomesticated populations and the potential for systematic breeding to transform the industry.
