Novel single nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes for growth in tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus )

ABSTRACT The objective of the present work was to identify and validate single nucleotide variations located in candidate genes to growth traits in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Two transitions were identified in the promoter region of the growth hormone gene (GH); eight nucleotide changes were i...
