Environment-Dependent Heterosis and Transgressive Gene Expression in Reciprocal Hybrids between the Channel Catfish <i>Ictalurus punctatus</i> and the Blue Catfish <i>Ictalurus furcatus</i>
The hybrid between female channel catfish (<i>Ictalurus punctatus</i>) and male blue catfish (<i>Ictalurus furcatus</i>) is superior in feed conversion, disease resistance, carcass yield, and harvestability compared to both parental species. However, heterosis and heterobelti...
