Assessing Genetic Diversity for a Pre-Breeding Program in <i>Piaractus mesopotamicus</i> by SNPs and SSRs

Assessing Genetic Diversity for a Pre-Breeding Program in <i>Piaractus mesopotamicus</i> by SNPs and SSRs

The pacu (<i>Piaractus mesopotamicus</i>) is a Neotropical fish with remarkable productive performance for aquaculture. Knowledge of genetic resources in Neotropical fish is essential for their applications in breeding programs. The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic diver...
