The genome of the Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus mykisshas, been mapped by a team of 30 researchers at Washington State University.
Led by Yann Guigen of the French National Institute for Agricultural Research and reporting this week in Nature Communications, the research aims to improve our understanding of genetic changes over time. As one of the most popular species used in aquaculture, this research could have a big impact on the trout industry.
