Innovation TitleDArTseq molecular genetic marker developed for rohu carp (Labeo rohita)
Innovation description Analysis of DArTseq genetic marker data successfully identified and characterised single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and silicoDArT markers in rohu. The analysis identified an unexpectedly high level of sibship among breeding population founders and found no or low levels of divergence in SNPs among the three river populations of rohu carp (Labeo rohita) studied.

Stage reached

Stage of InnovationStage 1: discovery/proof of concept
Year (Stage)2019
Stage DescriptionThe sibling relationships identified will be used in pedigree-based genetic analyses of the WorldFish breeding populations to improve the accuracy of genetic parameter and breeding value estimates, and will be used in future parental selection and mate allocation to avoid inbreeding in the short and long term.
