Abstract: Single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)is the most widely distributed molecular marker in genome and has become the popular issue in molecular biology. In this paper, some progresses of SNPs in aquaculture animals including disease, growth trait and reproductive performance were reviewed. We hope to provide the reference on breeding and molecular marker-assisted selection in aquaculture animals.

Key words: Single nucleotide polymorphism, Molecular marker, Aquaculture animals
