“…A follow-up analysis by consumer questioning seemed to indicate that there was a deeply entrenched identification with one of the surveyed brands, which was served at home by mother when the surveyed consumer was young (Three Lady Cooks brand). This is consistent with Italian consumer research concerning tuna products, in which it was concluded that consumers' ideas about food quality are complex, indeterminate, and uncertain (Conte et al, 2014).…”

As one of the world's most valuable fish, Tuna can either be found in inexpensive tins on grocery store shelves or on high-end auction blocks destined for Japanese sashimi and sushi restaurants. Moreover, Thailand is reported to be the world's largest exporter of prepared or preserved tuna, which in 2019 contributed an estimated $2.5 billion to Thailand's exports. However, brand research is very limited for canned tuna, especially when it comes to product packaging cues, and how packaging affects a consumer's decision-making process. Therefore, this study set out to investigate which factors play the greatest role in a Thai consumer's brand loyalty (BL) for tuna fish canned products. Research teams using systematic random sampling were dispatched to five supermarkets within the Bangkok metropolitan area and collected 400 questionnaires answering items related to brand attitudes (BA), brand quality (BQ), and brand value (BV) as they related to canned tuna brand loyalty (BL). Thereafter, data analysis of the four constructs and 13 observed variables was conducted with use of LISREL 9.1, which included a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), a goodness-of-fit (GOF) analysis along with the study's structural equation modeling (SEM). Results determined that there was a positive effect (73% R 2 ) between all the causal factors on Thai canned tuna BL. Furthermore, the factors affecting BL ranked from the greatest to the lowest were BA, BQ, and BV with total effect (TE) values of 0.85, 0.33, and 0.19, respectively. Key takeaways from the study's research seem to indicate that canned tuna is viewed by most consumers as a ‘commodity’, with product availability and convenience being of the utmost importance in product brand selection. Global fishing stocks sustainability, labor costs/practices, and dolphin free catches within the tuna industry were also determined to be important aspects within the international consumer community. Also, due to the demand for high-quality and safe tuna products, adding value has become increasingly important in satisfying consumer demands and represents an opportunity for marketplace expansion.

“…These characteristics make fish fillets an ideal source of nutrition according to a consensus dietary studies and recommendation [1]. Thus, fillet quality traits have economic importance to the aquaculture industry [2], and consumer attitude towards fish is influenced by fillet quality attributes [3]. For profitable aquaculture production, there is a need for fish fillets with optimum nutritional values and consistent organoleptic qualities.…”

Genome-wide scan for common variants associated with intramuscular fat and moisture content in rainbow trout

Background: Genetic improvement of fillet quality attributes is a priority of the aquaculture industry. Muscle composition impacts quality attributes such as flavor, appearance, texture, and juiciness. Fat and moisture make up about~80% of the tissue weight. The genetic architecture underlying the fat and moisture content of the muscle is still to be fully explored in fish. A 50 K gene transcribed SNP chip was used for genotyping 789 fish with available phenotypic data for fat and moisture content. Genotyped fish were obtained from two consecutive generations produced in the National Center for Cool and Cold Water Aquaculture (NCCCWA) growth-selective breeding program. Estimates of SNP effects from weighted single-step GBLUP (WssGBLUP) were used to perform genomewide association (GWA) analysis to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with the studied traits. Results: Using genomic sliding windows of 50 adjacent SNPs, 137 and 178 SNPs were identified as associated with fat and moisture content, respectively. Chromosomes 19 and 29 harbored the highest number of SNPs explaining at least 2% of the genetic variation in fat and moisture content. A total of 61 common SNPs on chromosomes 19 and 29 affected the aforementioned traits; this association suggests common mechanisms underlying intramuscular fat and moisture content. Additionally, based on single-marker GWA analyses, 8 and 24 SNPs were identified in association with fat and moisture content, respectively. Conclusion: SNP-harboring genes were primarily involved in lipid metabolism, cytoskeleton remodeling, and protein turnover. This work provides putative SNP markers that could be prioritized and used for genomic selection in breeding programs.

“…The Malaysian Department of Fisheries has set a tilapia development target of 130 000 t by 2020 to meet the national demand. Traditionally, tilapia has been exported to other countries in a variety of product forms, such as frozen fillets ( Figure 1) and whole fish (Conte et al, 2014), but lately frozen fillets, which have been offered in various sizes and packaging styles, have become more common and convenient and more favoured by consumers.…”
