Patents Assigned to Genome Atlantic
  • Patent number: 8597887
    Abstract: The present application describes SNPs useful for the genetic analysis of Atlantic cod. Also described are QTLs and SNP marker associations for commercially important traits such as weight, nodavirus resistance, resistance to stress and for determining geographic origin. The application also provides methods and uses of the SNPs for identifying family members and/or estimating relatedness, marker assisted selection, breeding programs, population management, identification of geographic origin and trait-association studies. A SNP-based linkage map for Atlantic cod is also provided.
