Zebrafish as a model organism for nutrition and growth: towards comparative studies of nutritional genomics applied to aquacultured fishes (2011, background): “These genes represent the main endocrine and autocrine regulators for skeletal muscle growth and are known to play a key role in the regulation of metabolism and of physiological processes (Moriyama et al. 2000; De-Santis and Jerry 2007; Johnston et al. 2008).”
What determines growth potential and juvenile quality of farmed fish species (2013, background): “…of polymorphisms in certain genes and association with growth traits in different species have suggested growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and myostatin (MSTN) as candidate genes for marker-assisted selection programmes (De-Santis & Jerry 2007; Wringe et al. 2010).”
Development of Captive Breeding Techniques for Marine Ornamental Fish: A Review (2010, background): “On the whole, DNA marker technology and gene manipulations have not impacted aquaculture in a significant way until recently (Liu and Cordes, 2004; De-Santis and Jerry, 2007).”
