A selective-breeding program to develop resistant populations of white-leg\nshrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei<\/em>)<\/em> to white spot virus (WSSV) launched\nat CENIACUA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WSSV has been considered the most pathogenic of all the\nserious diseases affecting the global shrimp industry. The disease was first\nreported in China in 1992 and by 2000, the disease spread to most of the major\nshrimp-farming countries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the low heritability\nof WSSV resistance as well as the negative correlations found between WSSV\nresistance and growth rate as well as the resistance and reproductive ability,\nthe selection program and selection pressure have been determined and applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Colombian\nbreeding program has produced shrimp populations that are much more resistant\nto WSSV than unselected populations.\n\nAccording to published research, improving the\nsurvival rates and enhancing the reproductive capacity of the WSSV-resistant\npopulations appears to be important research points for future research.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
