The development of tools for tracing and evaluating the genetic impact of fish from aquaculture: “AquaTrace” (AQUATRACE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

The genetic changes associated with domestication in aquaculture pose an increasing threat to the integrity of native fish gene pools. Consequently, there is a bourgeoning need for the development of molecular tools to assess and monitor the genetic impact of escaped or released farmed fish. In addition, exploration of basic links between genetic differences among farmed and wild fish and differen ...
