Application of omics technologies in aquaculture: Current advances and future perspectives
Authors
Deepika, Bindu Sharma
Abstract
The modern aquaculture industry heavily relies on omics technologies. The
development of omics technologies has made it possible to comprehend the
fundamental processes of fish reproductive development and has paved the way
for new advancements in the field of fisheries. New concepts for selective
breeding, growth, adaptations, etc., for many fish species are being shaped by
several genome-based studies. Epigenetics deals with the changes in gene
expression for a variety of economically significant traits that are
independent of DNA modifications. Proteomics helps in the analysis of fish
protein profiles and their quality. Fisheries research is being
conducted in new areas of omics, such as glycomics, the study of complex sugar
compounds; lipidomics, the study of cell lipid profiles; and metabolomics, the
study of intermediate metabolic products. Fish RNA sequencing or next-generation
sequencing, or transcriptomics, can be used to find unknown genes and analyze
their expression patterns. These tactics do more than just maximize
aquaculture; they also strengthen conservation efforts and create resilient,
sustainable futures for fish species around the world.
