Abstract

The manual also describes how inbreeding can be used to improve captive populations of fish. The manual contains chapters on: basic genetics and the genetics of inbreeding; how to determine individual inbreeding values when pedigrees are known; how to determine the average inbreeding value in a population when pedigrees are not known; genetic drift, which is random changes in gene frequency; how inbreeding programmes can be used to improve cultured populations of food fish; how to prevent inbreeding depression and loss of genetic variance in farmed populations; and recommendations on how to manage cultured populations of fish to prevent unwanted inbreeding and genetic drift from depressing productivity, profits, and survival.
