Genome-wide association analysis of adaptation to oxygen stress in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Abstract Background Tilapia is one of the most abundant species in aquaculture. Hypoxia is known to depress growth rate, but the genetic mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. In this study, two groups consisting of 3140 fish that were raised in either aerated (normoxia) or non-aerated pond (noc...
