The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Genomics Reshaping Aquaculture | Ep. 19

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, a new genomic breeding success story emerges from New Zealand’s snapper aquaculture program. We discuss how selective breeding, hatchery management, and genetic tools boosted growth, survival, and consistency across generations. Learn how this approach could reshape climate-resilient fish farming. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2024 article titled "Generational breeding gains in a new species for aquaculture, the Australasian snapper (Chrysophrys auratus)" by Samuels, G., et al.
