“…The challenges imposed by the sheer magnitude of genomic projects will likely be met only by a unified community, with a demonstrated capacity to gain the most out of shared resources. Such an evolution of attitudes will likely make it feasible to support a full-genome sequencing project for a Penaeid shrimp in the near future (Robalino et al, 2012). With the increasing global demand for aquaculture products and the early stage of selection for most aquatic species, molecular genetics is expected to play a pivotal role in the management of breeding programs aimed at developing improved strains for the most economically important species (Vaseeharan et al, 2012).…”

Genetic variation of wild Penaeid population of South East Coast region in India, using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis as DNA marker has been examined. Important penaeid species like Fenneropenaeus indicus, Penaeus semisulcatus, Penaeus monodon were collected at different geographical location such as Chennai, Nagapattinam, Pudukkottai, Ramanathapuram and Tuticorin, but P. monodon was not obtained from Tuticorin. For RAPD analysis, 15 numbers of primers were used, among which 3, 4, and 6 numbers of primers have worked well for F. indicus, P. semisulcatus and P. monodon respectively. The results of this study, genetic variation (6-33)% for F. indicus, (16-49)% for P. semisulcatus (16-53)% for P. monodon. As conclusion, from the pattern of genetic diversity of these three penaeid population, it could be considered as moderate to high, and maximum three population stocks are within the collected area.

“…Sustainable development of this industry could greatly benefit from progress in our basic knowledge of genetics, genomics, and molecular immunology of shrimp. Recently, the application of high throughput molecular tools and approaches has led to significant developments in these fields (Robalino et al, 2012).…”

“…The practical aspects of developing RNAi-based therapies for viral diseases (i.e. choice of RNAi molecules, delivery routes/methods, targeted genes, etc) have been extensively covered elsewhere [11][12][13][14] and are outside the scope of this review. Instead, we present in this article an overview of the current knowledge of the RNAi machinery in penaeid shrimp and discuss the implication of RNAi components in the shrimp response to viral infections…”

Over the last decade, RNA interference pathways have emerged in eukaryotes as critical regulators of many diverse biological functions including, among others, transcriptional gene regulation, post-transcriptional gene silencing, heterochromatin remodelling, suppression of transposon activity, and antiviral defences. Although this gene silencing process has been reported to be relatively well conserved in species of different phyla, there are important discrepancies between plants, invertebrates and mammals. In penaeid shrimp, the existence of an intact and functional RNAi machinery is supported by a rapidly growing body of evidence. However, the extent to which this process participates to the host immune responses remains poorly defined in this non-model organism. This review summarizes our current knowledge of RNAi mechanisms in shrimp and focuses on their implication in antiviral activities and shrimp immune defences.
