• Genetic co-variation between resistance against both Caligus rogercresseyi and Piscirickettsia salmonis, and body weight in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) (2014, background): “On the other hand, low to moderately negative genetic correlations between growth-related traits and resistance against the viral hemorrhagic septicemia in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) have been reported (Henryon et al., 2002).”
• Improvements in desirable traits of the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, as a result of five generations of selection on the West Coast, USA (2016, unknown): “…survival and yield were reported for Holstein cattle (Dematawewa and Berger, 1998), between disease resistance and body weight, body length and feed conversion efficiencies for rainbow trout (Henryon et al., 2002) and between disease resistance and weight for Atlantic salmon (Norris et al., 2008).”
• Improving feed efficiency in fish using selective breeding: a review (2018, methodology): “As FCR and FER are ratios, they are genetically correlated 170 with the two terms of the ratio, BWG and FI, and so genetic change of FCR or FER cannot be 171 simply related to underlying genetic variation for growth, feed consumption, or both (Turner 172 1959; Sutherland 1965).”
• Immunological Control of Fish Diseases (2010, background): “…these programmes have also included selecting traits for disease resistance, especially of commercially valuable species like salmonids, sea bass, sea bream, catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), flounder, tilapia and cod (Cipriano et al. 2002; Henryon et al. 2002; Henryon et al. 2005; Sahoo et al. 2008).”
