9362070 SHLESER Presently there are more than 2 million acres of shrimp farms providing almost 40% of the world supply. Shrimp farmed are principally not-selected wild stocks or produced from unselected farm reared broodstock. Little work has been done to selectively breed shrimp for performance in a farming environment. If shrimp can be bred for faster growth, the profitability for farming will be improved. This research is to obtain and identify stocks of Paneaus vannamei, which can be selectively bred for improved farming performance by: 1) screening existing specific pathogen free (SPF) populations to select individuals to establish populations for the selective breeding program; and 2) establishing populations and screening for variations in DNA patterns to identify the stocks. This research has the potential to develop a technical basis for the domestication of penaeid shrimp and provide the basis for more profitable shrimp farming in the US.

小行星9362070 目前，有超过200万英亩的虾养殖场提供了近40%的世界供应。 养殖的虾主要是未经选择的野生种群或由人工养殖场饲养的亲虾生产。 在养殖环境中选择性地养殖虾的工作很少。 如果能培育出生长更快的虾，养殖业的盈利能力将得到提高。 本研究旨在获得和鉴定凡纳滨对虾种群，通过以下方法进行选择性繁殖以提高养殖性能：1）筛选现有的无特定病原体（SPF）种群，以选择个体建立选择性繁殖计划的种群; 2）建立种群并筛选DNA模式的变异以鉴定种群。 这项研究有可能为对虾的驯化开发技术基础，并为美国更有利可图的对虾养殖提供基础。
