WorldFish-developed Generation 3 rohu grows more than 30% faster than conventional rohu strains
Type: Brochure
In 2020 and 2021, WorldFish released the genetically-improved ‘Generation 3’ or ‘G3’ rohu strain as
hatchlings to several hatcheries on a limited scale. The hatcheries have subsequently grown these fish to
adulthood and ...
Optimal contribution selection in highly fecund species with overlapping generations
Type: Journal Article
Optimal contributions approaches to parental selection in closed breeding populations aim to maximize genetic gains, while restraining long-term inbreeding. The adoption of optimal contribution selection (OCS) in highly ...
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) reveal sibship among founders of a Bangladeshi Rohu (Labeo rohita) breeding population
Type: Journal Article
Rohu (Labeo rohita) is a significant freshwater aquaculture species with approximately 1.8 Mt produced annually. Fin clips obtained from the founders of a newly established Bangladesh-based breeding population (∼140 fish ...
A high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of rohu carp, Labeo rohita, and its utilization in SNP-based exploration of gene flow and sex determination
Type: Journal Article
Labeo rohita (rohu) is a carp important to aquaculture in South Asia, with a production volume close to Atlantic salmon. While genetic improvements to rohu are ongoing, the genomic methods commonly used in other aquaculture ...
