Manual on Application of Molecular Tools in Aquaculture and Inland Fisheries Management: Laboratory protocols and data analysis

This is the second part of the manual Application of molecular genetic techniques in aquaculture and inland fisheries management. The major aim of this part of the manual is to provide step-by-step laboratory protocols and methodologies for data analysis, and a guideline to design a population genetic study.

The scope covers most commonly used techniques for screening genetic variation, general background on the methodologies for estimation of important parameters in population genetic studies for different forms of molecular genetic markers. Part 2 includes three sections:

Section I - Molecular markers - an overview: will provide an overview of common molecular markers used in population genetic studies.

Section II - Laboratory protocols: will provide step-by-step protocols of commonly used molecular genetic techniques.

Section III - Data analysis and project design: will deal with aspects of data management such as data analysis, interpretation and presentation, and a guideline to design a population genetic studies.

Manual on Application of Molecular Tools in Aquaculture and Inland Fisheries Management

This manual provides a comprehensive practical tool for the generation and analysis of genetic data for subsequent application in aquatic resources management in relation to genetic stock identification in inland fisheries and aquaculture. The material only covers general background on genetics in relation to aquaculture and fisheries resource management, the techniques and relevant methods of data analysis that are commonly used to address questions relating to genetic resource characterisation and population genetic analyses.
