Description and Table of Contents

Description

The Second International Symposium on Genetics in Aquaculture built on the foundation laid down at the first symposium held in Galway, Ireland in 1982 (Aquaculture, Volume 33), by addressing specific problems and developments in aquaculture genetics. The content of these proceedings demonstrates the tremendous breadth of research activity as well as the complexity of issues in aquaculture genetics.
