North eastern region of India is blessed with vast aquatic resources. This project focuses on the modulation of the Somatostatin gene in Indian major carp Labeo rohita to elevate growth rate and feeding efficiency through advanced biotechnological approaches.
Somatostatin (SST) is a peptide hormone that inhibits growth hormone release. By suppressing SST activity using gene-editing techniques, the project aims to significantly improve fish growth performance, which has direct implications for aquaculture productivity in the region.
