Rainbow trout

• 30 years of modern breeding
  
• High sophistication
  
• Large companies and SMEs
  

Main breeding traits

• Growth 
  
• Maturity age
  
• Carcass yield
  
• Deformation
  
• Fillet color
  

Pedigree tracing by separating families or genotyping

Important R&D challenges 

• Enhance production: processing yields, FE, diseases, adaption to novel diets
  
• Enhance breeding: non-lethal ways of improving feed efficiency and fillet%, SNP chip
  
• High need for genomics for next level of breeding
