This essential guide will allow
you to understand how new developments
in our knowledge of epigenetic
mechanisms and epigenetic inheritance
can be applied to improve aquaculture
production and aquatic resource
management and conservation.
Epigenetics is the study of
heritable changes in gene expression
that are independent of alterations in
the nucleotide sequence. It integrates
genomic and environmental influences
to shape the phenotype. Epigenetics is
a field with particular relevance to
aquaculture and aquatic organisms,
since it underpins acclimatory
responses to diverse and changing
environments and inheritance of
desired phenotypes.
Epigenetics in Aquaculture
provides a comprehensive introduction
to epigenetics, epigenetic mechanisms,
epigenetic inheritance, and research
methods. It also provides the current
state of the art on research and
development on epigenetics in the
major functions of aquatic organisms
in the framework of aquaculture
production. The fact that aquaculture
is the fastest-growing sector of food
production makes the book especially
timely.
Readers will also find:
- Detailed treatment of
subjects including aquatic faunal
reproduction, sex determination,
growth regulation, nutritional
programming, disease resistance,
stress response and much more
- Survey of current
research lacunae and the projected
future of the discipline
- An authorial team of
internationally renowned experts
Epigenetics in Aquaculture
is a valuable reference for
researchers, biologists and advanced
students in any area of marine
science, oceanography, aquaculture,
environmental science, and food
production.
