Experimental production of tetraploid oysters for use as broodstock for commercial hatchery production of triploids

Triploids (3n) are organisms with three sets of chromosomes, while the normal diploid (2n) organisms have only two sets. Over the past two decades, triploids have been studied in more than 20 species of molluscs. The main interests of those studies have primarily focused on their sterility and...

SCRC: PhD Extension : RNA interference (RNAi) as a means to control Neoparamoeba perurans, the causative agent of amoebic gill disease (AGD). (Student: Paula Lima)

RNA interference has emerged as a powerful tool for rapid analysis of gene function in non-model organisms and has the potential to identify candidate targets for interventions against diseases of economic importance to aquaculture. The main purpose of the study was to use functional and comparative...
