Improvement of milkfish larval rearing and nursery culture through gut metagenome, transcriptome analysis and gut microbial community manipulations
The study will elucidate using metagenomic and transcriptome techniques, the microbioticfactors and their roles in the physiology of milkfish larvae and juveniles. These information willbe used to design appropriate rearing protocols to enhance the hatchery productivity ofmilkfish.
