Genome wide association study for resistance to Caligus rogercresseyi in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) using a 50K SNP genotyping array
(Elsevier, 2017)
The sea louse (Caligus rogercresseyi) is an external parasite and considered one of the most important health
problems in the salmon farming industry. Resistance to conventional chemical treatments has been demonstrated ...
Genomic predictions and genome wide association study of resistance against Piscirickettsia salmonis in Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) using ddRAD sequencing
(Genetics Society of America, 2018)
Piscirickettsia salmonis is one of the main infectious diseases affecting coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) farming, and current treatments have been ineffective for the control of this disease. Genetic improvement for ...
Genome-wide association analysis reveals loci associated with resistance against Piscirickettsia salmonis in two Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) chromosomes
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: Pisciricketssia salmonis is the causal agent of Salmon Rickettsial Syndrome (SRS), which affects salmon species and causes severe economic losses. Selective breeding for disease resistance represents one approach ...
Developmental pathways inferred from modularity, morphological integration and fluctuating asymmetry patterns in the human face
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
Facial asymmetries are usually measured and interpreted as proxies to developmental noise. However, analyses focused on its developmental and genetic architecture are scarce. To advance on this topic, studies based on a ...
Accuracy of genotype imputation and genomic predictions in a two-generation farmed Atlantic salmon population using high-density and low-density SNP panels
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
The objectives of this study were: (i) to assess genotype imputation accuracy in different scenarios using genomewide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) data from a population comprising two generations of farmed Atlantic ...
Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) for Growth Rate and Age at Sexual Maturation in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)
(Public Library Science, 2015)
Early sexual maturation is considered a serious drawback for Atlantic salmon aquaculture as it retards growth, increases production times and affects flesh quality. Although both growth and sexual maturation are thought ...
Genome-wide association analysis for body weight identifies candidate genes related to development and metabolism in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Springer Verlag, 2019)
Growth is one of the most important traits from both a physiological and economic perspective in aquaculture species. Thus, identifying the genomic regions and genes underpinning genetic variation for this trait is of ...
Gene expression and chromosomal location for susceptibility to Sjögren's syndrome
(2009)
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting mainly the exocrine glands. Its physio-pathology is poorly understood and most of the knowledge has been related to the inflammatory ...
Bayesian genome wide association analysis for body weight in farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
(Wiley, 2017)
We performed a genome-wide association study to detect markers associated with growth traits in Atlantic salmon. The analyzed traits included body weight at tagging (BWT) and body weight at 25 months (BW25M). Genotypes of ...
