Perspectives of molecular genetics and fisheries into the 21st century

  • Chapter
Molecular Genetics in Fisheries

Abstract

I have been privileged to witness the application of molecular genetics in fisheries throughout the maturation process from infancy to maturity since I joined the work force as a graduate student in 1959. I am grateful for this opportunity to reflect on this development, and to offer a few thoughts about directions and needs for this field in the near future.
