Quatrième de couverture :
While new molecular techniques hold great promise for applicationin commercial aquaculture in the future, most aquaculture currentlytakes place under practical and often challenging conditions.Tremendous gains could be realized in most forms of aquaculturethrough the application of more traditional and practicalapproaches to genetic improvement, as detailed in this timelybook.
Practical Genetics for Aquaculture provides reviews of thefundamental theory and examples of practical applications fornumerous aspects of genetic improvement in aquaculture. Contentsinclude thorough details of genetic concepts and terminology,chapters on genetic change for numerous traits and the resultantincreased yields and profitability, control over reproduction, thedevelopment and performance of transgenic aquatic organisms andfinally a chapter devoted to potential risks to aquatic habitatsand populations posed by all forms of genetically improved culturedspecies.
Written in a user–friendly and succinct style by Dr C. Greg Lutz,who has many years′ experience teaching, researching and refiningpractical applications, this exciting and useful book is a vitalsource of commercially important information to the aquaculturecommunity. Personnel involved in aquaculture including fishfarmers, teachers, students and researchers will find this bookinvaluable and it should be made available on the shelves of alllibraries in government departments, universities and researchestablishments where aquaculture is practised, studied or taught.

Over recent years there have been major advances in the application of molecular, biotechnological and genetic techniques to a wide range of aquatic species. Until now, many working in a hands–on capacity in the area of aquaculture have not known what the benefits of this work could be to them. This important new book redresses this situation, providing clear details of the available scientific information and the direct application of techniques under simple and practical situations.
