Genome-wide association study and genomic predictions for resistance against <i>Piscirickettsia salmonis</i> in coho salmon ( <i>Oncorhynchus kisutch</i> ) using ddRAD sequencing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Piscirickettsia salmonis is one of the main infectious diseases affecting coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ) farming. Current treatments have been ineffective for the control of the disease. Genetic improvement for P. salmonis resistance has been proposed as a feasible alternative for the control of this infectious disease in farmed fish. Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) strategies allow genotyping hundreds of individuals with thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which can be used to perform genome wide association studies (GWAS) and predict genetic values using genome-wide information. We used double-digest restriction-site associated DNA (ddRAD) sequencing to dissect the genetic architecture of resistance against P. salmonis in a farmed coho salmon population and identify molecular markers associated with the trait. We also evaluated genomic selection (GS) models in order to determine the potential to accelerate the genetic improvement of this trait by means of using genome-wide molecular information. 764 individuals from 33 full-sib families (17 highly resistant and 16 highly susceptible) which were experimentally challenged against P. salmonis were sequenced using ddRAD sequencing. A total of 4,174 SNP markers were identified in the population. These markers were used to perform a GWAS and testing genomic selection models. One SNP related with iron availability was genome-wide significantly associated with resistance to P. salmonis defined as day of death. Genomic selection models showed similar accuracies and predictive abilities than traditional pedigree-based best linear unbiased prediction (PBLUP) method.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
