Problemas genéticos y posibles repercusiones asociados al manejo en la producción de camarón blanco (<i>litopenaeus vannamei</i>)

Abstract

The shrimp industry has increased in recent years worldwide generating that the sector expands its productivity through techniques and methods that makes them more productive and profitable. But one of the big problems facing the aquaculture sector are the infectious contagious diseases that affect the crops of <i>Litopenaeus vannamei</i> by bringing consequences how mortality and economic losses to producers, that is why it is about preventing this type of diseases of various kinds with genetic selection techniques that will help choose quality animals as diseases among them viral they are transferred perpendicularly to the broodstock and later to the post-larvae, which in the long run generate problems in the production ponds. The genetics of white shrimp has contributed to the productive sector of aquaculture since thanks the recognition of pedigrees and molecular markers for DNA recognition it has been possible to increase the chances of obtaining quality reproducers to avoid problems such as inbreeding that generates results such as: low growth, low disease resistance and tolerance, little egg fertility or viability, high rates of deformity in crops. In the next job is does a review about the possible genetic damage that attaint the white shrimp and its repercussions on the culture ponds to finally avoid the problems of inbreeding of <i>L. vannamei</i> in addition to mortality, low growth and little tolerance to diseases that repercussions in economic losses to the sector.
