Phenotyping for Genetic Improvement of Feed Efficiency in Fish: Lessons From Pig Breeding
Feed incurs most of the cost of aquaculture production, so feed efficiency (FE) improvement is of great importance. Our aim is to use work done in pigs to formulate a logical framework for assessing the most useful component traits influencing feed intake (FI) and efficiency in farmed fish – either...
