Proteomics Research Leads to New Tests for Bitter Crab Disease, Determining When Crabs Will Molt and More

摘要

Aquatic biotechnology includes genomics, a discipline that aims to decipher and understand the entire genetic information content of plants, animals and fish, as well as microorganisms.The Aquatic Biotechnology and Genomics Research and Development Program of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, for example, has applied biotechnology techniques to the genetic identification of salmon populations, the diagnosis of aquatic animal diseases, the bioremediation of contaminated sites and risk assessments of genetically engineered fish.
