Producers working with well-known species benefit from a choice of tools that keep animals thriving and production increasing. In contrast, growers of emerging species often struggle with limited resources and support when starting and expanding their operations. In this article by The Fish Site, our breeding experts Marcos De Donato and Alejandro Gutierrez discuss the need to diversify aquaculture for sustainability, the challenges of breeding novel species, and the innovative solutions our team offers to help establish and scale up these efforts.

Genome Editing (GE) is not just a tool of the future but is poised to be a present-day game changer in aquaculture. With research in over 25 species already underway, this technology will be changing the tide by boosting productivity, improving disease resistance, and promoting environmental stewardship. The Fish Site's article, featuring insights from our own Xavier Lauth and John Buchanan, explores how Japan is leading the way with commercially genome-edited fish and explores the critical role of 100% sterile fish in advancing a more sustainable aquaculture industry.
