Identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL's) associated with early maturation in a domesticated strain of Atlantic salmon

P-06-04-013

Description

In this project, we will test associations between early maturation and genetic markers (termed QTLs) developed by researchers at the University of Guelph to determine if these markers may be useful in identifying and selecting for fish with a genetic propensity for late maturation in the SBP.
