Triploid induction in penaeid shrimps aquaculture: a review.

The application of biotechnology in marine shrimp especially in penaeid shrimps aquaculture is increasing in demand. Researcher and scientist consents that application of biotechnology helps improve the shrimp quality and consequently increase the aquaculture shrimp productions. The monosex culture becomes one of the focuses nowadays as the techniques can help increasing the aquaculture yield and obviously increases the aquaculture production. The application of triploidy in penaeid shrimp helps to increase the shrimp size, faster the shrimp growth and also recognized as one of the successful techniques for monosex culture as well as induction of polyploidy, gynogenesis and hormones induces. Triploidy technique is also beneficial to be applied in the shrimp aquaculture for the production purposes. This review paper focuses on the triploid induction in penaeid shrimps, the suitable method to be applied, and also the overview of the triploidy induction from others previous study. Hopefully, this review paper can be the benchmark for the application of triploidy technique in shrimp aquaculture industry and help promoting the shrimp aquaculture shrimp productions in the future.
