The European Reference Genome Atlas: piloting a decentralised approach to equit...
Mc Cartney, Ann M.; Formenti, Giulio; Mouton, Alice; De Panis, Diego; Marins, Luísa S.; Leitão, Henrique G.; Diedericks, Genevieve; Kirangwa, JosephA genomic database of all Earth’s eukaryotic species could contribute to many scientific discoveries; however, only a tiny fraction of species have genomic information available. In 2018, scientists across the world united under the Earth BioGenome Project (EBP), aiming to produce a database of high-quality reference genomes containing all ~1.5 million recognized eukaryotic species. As the European node of the ...

Life in a drop: sampling environmental DNA for marine fishery management and ec...
Gilbey, John; Carvalho, Gary; Castilho, Rita; Coscia, Ilaria; Coulson, Mark W.; Dahle, Geir; Derycke, Sofie; Francisco, Sara M.; Helyar, Sarah J.Science-based management of marine fisheries and effective ecosystem monitoring both require the analysis of large amounts of often complex and difficult to collect information. Legislation also increasingly requires the attainment of good environmental status, which again demands collection of data to enable efficient monitoring and management of biodiversity. Such data is traditionally obtained as a result of...
Characterization and refinement of growth related quantitative trait loci in Eu...
Louro, Bruno; Kuhl, Heiner; Tine, Mbaye; de Koning, Dirk-Jan; Batargias, Costas; Volckaert, Filip A. M.; Reinhardt, Richard; Canario, AdelinoThe identification of genetic markers for traits of interest for aquaculture, such as growth, is an important step for the establishment of breeding programmes. As more genomic information becomes available the possibility of applying comparative genomics to identify and refine quantitative trait locus (QTLs) and potentially identify candidate genes responsible for the QTL effect may accelerate genetic improvem...
European sea bass genome and its variation provide insights into adaptation to ...
Tine, Mbaye; Kuhl, Heiner; Gagnaire, Pierre-Alexandre; Louro, Bruno; Desmarais, Erick; Martins, Rute S. T.; Hecht, Jochen; Knaust, FlorianThe European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is a temperate-zone euryhaline teleost of prime importance for aquaculture and fisheries. This species is subdivided into two naturally hybridizing lineages, one inhabiting the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean and the other the Mediterranean and Black seas. Here we provide a high-quality chromosome-scale assembly of its genome that shows a high degree of synteny with the...
