The Genetic Research Methods and Its Role in Aquaculture on Indonesia
Journal Title: International Journal of Oceanography & Aquaculture - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Successful development of aquaculture is largely determined by the seed supply of both the quality and quantity of the seed. Seed quality is influenced by the quality of the mother (genetic factors) and environmental factors (water quality, food, and disease). Improved parent quality through the improvement of both qualitative and quantitative genetic traits that can be done through the selection of traits or characteristics of prospective mothers, as well as avoiding the occurrence of inbreeding that causes heritabilities decline. The purpose of writing to review the results of genetic studies that have been applied in the field of aquaculture in Indonesia. In this article, the study included the following: basic genetic concepts and theories, genetic research methods, and their roles and functions in the field of aquaculture.

Turkey's Aquaculture Potential and Developments in the Fish Feed Sector
In this study, Turkey's aquaculture potential was investigated. Aquaculture studies started in fresh water in 1970s. Production of sea fish was started in 1985. The amount of aquaculture in 2016 is 253,395 tons. 59. 9% o...
Sensitivity of Fish Pathogenic Bacteria to Almond (Terminalia Catappa) Leaves and Bitter (Vernonia Amygdalina) Leaves Extracts
The use of antibiotics in aquaculture to treat infection has resulted into the development of resistant strains which have rendered antibiotic treatment ineffective. Therefore, alternative ways of treating diseases must...
Study of Mud Crab Fattening in Earthen Pen Pond with Different Stocking Density
The effect of stocking densities on the growth, survival and production of mud crab (Scylla spp.) was tested in a pen culture rearing system. The experiment was conducted for a rearing period of 90days in nine earthen pe...
