“…Compared with RAD sequencing, the high-throughput SNP arrays showed higher repeatability and reproducibility, and more straightforward experimental procedures and bioinformatic analyses (Robledo et al, 2018). SNP arrays are efficient and robust tools for genomescale genotyping, which have been developed in many fish species including the 250K common carp array (Xu et al, 2014); the 250K and 690K catfish arrays (Liu et al, 2014;Zeng et al, 2017); the 50K and 58K Nile tilapia arrays (Joshi et al, 2018;Yáñez et al, 2020); the 50K and 57K rainbow trout arrays (Palti et al, 2015;Salem et al, 2018); the 15K, 286K, and 400K Atlantic salmon arrays (Gidskehaug et al, 2010;Houston et al, 2014;Yáñez et al, 2016); the 50K Japanese flounder array (Zhou et al, 2020); the 6K giant tiger shrimp array (Baranski et al, 2014); the 9K Pacific white shrimp array (Jones et al, 2017); and the 38K and 190K oyster arrays (Gutierrez et al, 2017;Qi et al, 2017). The applications of the high-density SNP array in GWAS have identified QTL associated with various traits in multiple species, including growth, disease resistance, heat stress, hypoxia tolerance, morphometric, sex, and body conformation (Abdelrahman et al, 2017;Zenger et al, 2019).…”
