Science advice for genetic effects from marine finfish aquaculture in Southern California and the Gulf of America

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This report contains a discussion of potential candidate species for aquaculture of finfish in the regions of Southern California and Gulf of Mexico and describes potential sources of genetic risks to wild populations from the escape of fish or gametes from cages. The consideration of effects from aquaculture is limited to genetic effects related to cultured-wild interactions and loss of genetic diversity due to culture-origin escapes surviving in the wild.
