    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Carvalheiro, Roberto; Lhorente, Jean Paul; Correa, Katharina; Figueroa, Rene; Houston, Ross D.; Yáñez López, José (Elsevier, 2018-04)
      The objectives of this study were: (i) to assess genotype imputation accuracy in different scenarios using genomewide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) data from a population comprising two generations of farmed Atlantic ...
    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Lhorente, Jean Paul; Carvalheiro, Roberto; Yáñez López, José (Wiley, 2017)
      We performed a genome-wide association study to detect markers associated with growth traits in Atlantic salmon. The analyzed traits included body weight at tagging (BWT) and body weight at 25 months (BW25M). Genotypes of ...
    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Bangera, Rama; Carvalheiro, Roberto; Correa, Katharina; Figueroa, Rene; Lhorente, Jean Paul; Yáñez López, José (Genetics Society America, 2018)
      Salmonid rickettsial syndrome (SRS), caused by the intracellular bacterium Piscirickettsia salmonis, is one of the main diseases affecting rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) farming. To accelerate genetic progress, genomic ...
    • Barría, Agustín; Christensen, Kris A.; Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Correa, Katharina; Jedlicki, Ana; Lhorente, Jean Paul; Davidson, William S.; Yáñez López, José (Genetics Society of America, 2018)
      Piscirickettsia salmonis is one of the main infectious diseases affecting coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) farming, and current treatments have been ineffective for the control of this disease. Genetic improvement for ...
    • Yáñez López, José; Joshi, R.; Yoshida, Grazyella Massako (Wiley, 2020)
      Selective breeding of tilapia populations started in the early 1990s and over the past three decades tilapia has become one of the most important farmed freshwater species, being produced in more than 125 countries around ...
    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Yáñez López, José; Lopes de Oliveira, Carlos Antonio; Pereira Ribeiro, Ricardo; Lhorente, Jean Paul; de Queiroz, Sandra; Carvalheiro, Roberto (Elsevier, 2018-10-01)
      This study aims to compare results obtained by mate selection accounting for different components in the objective function (OF), including functions related to genetic variability of the future progeny, using Nile ...
    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Yáñez López, José; Lopes de Oliveira, Carlos Antonio; Pereira Ribeiro, Ricardo; Lhorente, Jean Paul; Queiroz, Sandra Aidar de; Carvalheiro, Roberto (Wiley, 2017)
      An algorithm to perform mate selection in aquaculture breeding using a computational optimization procedure called "differential evolution" (DE) was applied under optimum contribution selection and mate selection scenarios, ...
    • Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Yáñez López, José; de Queiroz, Sandra Aidar; Carvalheiro, Roberto (Elsevier, 2020)
      Optimum contribution selection (OCS) and mate selection (MS) are alternative strategies to maximize genetic gain under controlled rates of inbreeding. There is evidence in the literature that MS outperforms OCS in controlling ...
    • Cádiz, María I.; López, María Eugenia; Díaz Domínguez, Diego; Cáceres Cruz, Giovanna; Yoshida, Grazyella Massako; Gómez Uchida, Daniel; Yáñez López, José (Nature, 2020)
      Nile tilapia belongs to the second most cultivated group of fish in the world, mainly because of its favorable characteristics for production. Genetic improvement programs and domestication process of Nile tilapia may have ...
