Abstract

[Extract] Source description: Barramundi, Lates calcarifer, is a commercially important fish farmed throughout Australia and South-East Asia. Despite an increasing availability of genetic resources for the species (e.g. microsatellite and SNP markers, linkage and BAC-based maps and transcriptomic assemblies), the complete characterization of genes is still reliant on laborious molecular methods (e.g. genome walking/RACE PCR cloning/Sanger sequencing).
