SystEms Biology Modelling of Key LIFe History Traits for Sustainable Aquaculture Production in the Mediterranean Region (SEaLIFT)

This project sheds light on the genetic mechanisms of growth cohorts in the commercially important gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) and European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), and will develop a simple genotyping tool to screen for important genetic variation behind these cohorts. The outcomes of this project will be suitable for many applied purposes, for example, for the implementation of gene-centric management practices in fisheries.
