| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To clarify whether genetic improvement can prevent morphological abnormalities of flatfish, using small flatfish, H japonicus, we generated analytical families, conducted phenotypic analysis of hypermelanosis, which is the most major abnormalities in flatfish, analyzed genomes using next-generation sequencers, and developed breeding plans using the genomic information. As a result, the heritability of hypermelanosis was estimated to be about 44%, suggesting the possibility of genetic improvement through systematic breeding.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
魚種を問わず魚類の種苗生産や養殖現場において形態異常魚の出現は大きな経済的損失を伴うため大きな問題となっており、この問題を解決する意義は非常に大きい。今回の研究成果は、ゲノム情報を用いた遺伝的な改良によってヒラメ・カレイ類で問題となっている黒化を効率的に軽減することができる可能性を示唆しており、今後の魚類形態異常軽減策の新たな方策を提案している。
