Review of the genetic and genomic information regarding the potential genetic interaction and impacts of aquaculture on native fish stocks. Preparatory work for the risk assessment in the frame of the FP7 project AquaTrace.
The present report aims to review knowledge and resources from previous research relevant for the assessment of risks emerging from aquaculture, in particular with a view on the three commercially important target species gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata), European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) in the context of the FP7 project AquaTrace.
The limited information on escapees and of genetic and genomic knowledge in the target species result in specific challenges for a risk assessment which are addressed here. In particular the development of management goals and assessment endpoints, indispensable to any robust risk assessment are discussed.
