Assessing potential to implement parentage assignment and communal early rearing (CER) in catla

Data to Assess potential to implement parentage assignment and communal early rearing (CER) in catla (see attached). Specifically:  individuals can accurately and unambiguously be assigned using SNP markers  pools of two samples from different catla individuals allow accurate and unambiguous parentage assignment  equal numbers of individuals per family are present at tagging under CER  the genetic correlation between CER harvest weight and SER harvest weight equals one o identify and validate putatuve male-specific (i.e. only present in males) markers for catla and rohu using tissue samples collected as part of routine genetic improvement activities. o Tissue samples were collected between 24 October 2028 and 8 November 2022. Genotyping of samples was undertaken in August 2023 in Bangladesh using o DArTag - https://www.diversityarrays.com/services/targeted-genotying/
