New linkage map for L. vannamei using 50k SNP array out now! We found SNPs and genes linked to sex determination. A step closer to monosex populations? Thanks José Manuel Yáñez, Vito Antonio Mastrochirico Filho and Gabriel R Campos Montes for the collaboration! doi.org/10.1186/s12864…

An experiment with tambaqui fish demonstrated that their resistance to acanthocephalan intestinal parasites has a genetic basis. The research was conducted by UNESP in partnership with Nilton Lins University and the University of Chile. agencia.fapesp.br/fator-genetico…

Last week, after months of hard work and lots of conversations, Science Magazine launched a new series—spearheaded by News from Science's Elizabeth Culotta, Shraddha Chakradhar and me—about how researchers are #decolonizing science. science.org/toc/science/38…

🚨 New pre-print! We report a major boost in Nile tilapia resistance to franciselosis disease—achieved in just one round of genetic selection! Thanks to Vito Antonio Mastrochirico Filho, Marzinho, and team. Read more: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

🚨 New Pre-print! 🚨 📄 Deep Learning Approach for Genetic Selection of Stress Response in the Amazon Fish Colossoma macropomum (papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…) This study looks into natural/stress-induced skin color variation in tambaqui, analyzing mechanisms behind countershading🧶

Nova geração de #tilápias geneticamente resistentes a bactéria letal já é realidade e promete pescado mais seguro. Descrito em Aquaculture, o estudo foi conduzido por grupos do Centro de Aquicultura da UNESP e do Instituto de Pesca - SP. agencia.fapesp.br/55007
