Dear Gidda Maheswarudu,

Up to this as per my own observation and information I have the actual answer may be NO. However, you may find a lot of documents regarding good management practice of tiger shrimp well brood stock.

Rajeeb K. Mohanty

The DTSP facility of RGCA envisages to produce domesticated (families of Shrimp with desirable traits selected and bred for further improvement in growth, reproductive performance, disease resistance, meat quality and yield) and Specific pathogen free (tested free for all known shrimp pathogens) Tiger Shrimp Broodstock for supply to the shrimp hatchery operators in the Industry to produce healthy shrimp seeds.

Dear K. Mohanty,

Nice to hearing from you with such an interesting information. Its my pleasure if you provide some visual documents. Would you please informed me How we can collect those. Are they published any articles or reports regarding the technology.

Thanks again for providing the information.

Dear Rajeeb K. Mohanty

Disease resistant broodstock is different from specific pathogene frre broodstock. RGCA is developing specific pathogen free broodstock only. I have submitted a manuscript " Selective breeding and development of disease resistant broodstock of tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon to the Journal of Genetics Photon whcih will be published soon. The manuscript was also selected for Photon Research Award-2014 in Genetics. Development of disease resistant brood stock involves exposing broodstock to pathogen at each generation and survived animals will be continued for successive generations with selective breeding between different families.
