Genotype by Environment Interaction for Growth in Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua L.) in Four Farms of Norway
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied genotype by environment interaction (G × E) for body weight (BW) of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.) from the National cod breeding program in Norway. Records of 13,811 fish in a nucleus farm (NUC) and two test farms (PENorth, PESouth) in year-class (YC) 2007, and for 9149 fish in NUC and one test farm in YC 2010 were available. Heterogeneity of variances and heritabilities ( ) were estimated using a univariate animal model with environmental effects common to full-sibs (full-model). Genetic correlations ( ) between farms were estimated using a multivariate full-model and a reduced-model (without ) for each YC. Heterogeneity of was observed in both YC 2007 (0.10 to 0.16) and YC 2010 (0.08 to 0.26). The estimates of between NUC and test farms were relatively high for both models (0.81 ± 0.19 to 0.96 ± 0.17) and (0.81 ± 0.08 to 0.86 ± 0.04), suggesting low OPEN ACCESS J. Mar. Sci. Eng. 2015, 3 413 re-ranking of genotypes. Strong re-ranking of genotypes between PESouth and PENorth may be less important because most cod producers are situated close to the breeding nucleus. In conclusion, G × E between NUC and test farms were low and at present there is no need for separate breeding programs for BW in cod.

In 1988, a new plasmid profile was observed for Vibrio salmonicida isolated from cod (Gadus morhua) and Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in fish farms in northern Norway. This new plasmid profile, which consisted of plasmids of 61, 21, 3.4, and 2.8 megadaltons, is 1 of 11 plasmid profiles which have so far been observed for V. salmonicida. Plasmid profiling and plasmid DNA hybridization were used ...

We summarize the results of studies of mitochondrial DNA sequence variation in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) from the North Atlantic and adjacent areas. Population genetic structures in the Northwest and Northeast Atlantic and Barents Sea differ markedly. Whereas all populations from the Northwest Atlantic are dominated by a single common genotype and show low haplotype and nucleotide diversity, ...
