Status of Whole Genome Sequencing in Fisheries and Aquaculture
Gowhar Iqbal , Showkat Ahmad Dar and Yaqoota Maqbool
 
Abstract
Whole genome sequencing (WGS), is the process of determining the entirety or nearly the entirety of the DNA sequence of an organism's genome at a single time in a short span of time. Whole genome sequencing of a given species is a fundamental tool to address some important issues in aquaculture, which are critical for sustainable and profitable aquaculture. The development of whole genome sequencing in aquaculture is very quick. However, no good correlation exists between an organism's body size or complexity and its genome size. In the case of Labeo rohita the DNA was sequenced using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platforms. The draft whole-genome sequences of over 24 species have been published, and they can be served as reference genomes for downstream studies on important issues related to aquaculture and fisheries. NGS has various applications in aquaculture. With the rapid advance of NGS technologies and bioinformatics analysis of large sequencing data, the development of whole genome sequencing in aquaculture is very quick
