A Novel Candidate Gene Associated With Body Weight in the Pacific White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

Improvements of growth traits are always the focus in selective breeding programs for the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei). Identification of growth-related genes or markers can contribute to the application of modern breeding technologies, and thus accelerate the genetic impr...
