Abstract

Biotechnology & Applied Microbiology Genetics & Heredity Life Sciences & Biomedicine Science & Technology
The innovations of the “Omics Era” have ushered in significant advancements in genetic improvement of agriculturally important animal species through transforming genetics, genomics and breeding strategies. These advancements were often coordinated, in part, by support provided over 30 years through the 1993–2023 National Research Support Project 8 (NRSP8, National Animal Genome Research Program, NAGRP) and affiliate projects focused on enabling genomic discoveries in livestock, poultry, and aquaculture species. These significant and parallel advances demand strategic planning of future research priorities. This paper, as an output from the May 2023 Aquaculture Genomics, Genetics, and Breeding Workshop, provides an updated status of genomic resources for United States aquaculture species, highlighting major achievements and emerging priorities.
