DNA microarray technology and its application in fish biology and aquaculture

Abstract

Fishery is an important industry in China as well as in the rest of the world, and it provides a human food resource containing high-quality protein. Best practice in aquaculture requires a full understanding of the genomic controls and transcriptional profiles of cultured fish species. Improvements in aquaculture can be made by regulation of the expression of functional genes. Microarray technology is a powerful tool for rapid screening of genes or transcriptional profiles in a particular fish or for a particular economic character; for example, genes that are related to growth and disease control in the fish. This review provides a brief introduction to microarray technology and its methods and applications, together with a discussion of the achievements in fish biology that have resulted from this technology.
