Genomic research on Atlantic cod
Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is an important species for the global fisheries and aquaculture industries. The Atlantic Cod Genomics and Broodstock Development Project (www.codgene.ca) aims to generate an extensive set of molecular tools for cod, including a database containing approximately 160,000 e...
