Maximize Genetic Gain: Choosing the Right Breeding Program
Selective breeding is one of the most powerful tools available to aquaculture producers, driving improvements in growth, survival, disease resistance, robustness, and overall production performance. However, because breeding programs differ in their goals, production environments, and operational constraints, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Choosing the right breeding strategy requires balancing breeding objectives, available resources, operational…
