Utilizing DNA technology in their breeding programs, every Arctic Charr producer can reap significant benefits. The extent and nature of the return on investment will depend on the specific tool employed, whether it is a low-density (LD), medium-density (MD), or high-density (HD) panel. Regardless of the chosen tool, the application of DNA technology enhances the precision of selection decisions.
For those starting in genomics with limited knowledge of their populations, we recommend our Arctic Charr LD genotyping panel, comprising nearly 200 SNPs. This panel offers valuable insights into the population’s genetic architecture, aiding in assessing relatedness and inbreeding. Additionally, it facilitates parentage testing, a crucial component in estimating breeding values (EBVs) that reflect genetic merit.
Notably, our Arctic Charr LD genotyping panel includes additional markers correlated with genetic sex, enabling a straightforward and non-invasive method of determining sex at an early age, before sexual maturation.
Furthermore, our team is eager to collaborate with other high-density and off-the-shelf genotyping panels available in the market.
