Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genetics
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Marc Vandeputte focuses on Heritability, Animal science, Sea bass, Genetics and Selective breeding. The concepts of his Heritability study are interwoven with issues in Genetic variability, Common carp, Genetic variation and Sire. The various areas that he examines in his Animal science study include Mating design and Genetic correlation.

His work carried out in the field of Sea bass brings together such families of science as Dicentrarchus, Fish oil and Fish meal. His Dicentrarchus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bass, Ecology and Sexual dimorphism. His studies deal with areas such as Betanodavirus, Encephalopathy, Virology and Aquaculture as well as Selective breeding.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetics of adaptation and domestication in livestock (162 citations)
  • Heritability estimates for growth-related traits using microsatellite parentage assignment in juvenile common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) (148 citations)
  • A Polygenic Hypothesis for Sex Determination in the European Sea Bass Dicentrarchus labrax (125 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Marc Vandeputte spends much of his time researching Animal science, Sea bass, Heritability, Dicentrarchus and Aquaculture. His Animal science research includes elements of Biotechnology, Selection, Oreochromis, Feed conversion ratio and Selective breeding. His Sea bass research includes themes of Zoology, Ecology, Fishery, Bass and Diallel cross.

Marc Vandeputte has included themes like Common carp, Mating design and Genetic correlation, Genetic variation in his Heritability study. The Dicentrarchus study combines topics in areas such as Sexual dimorphism, Larva, Genotype, Sire and Artificial fertilization. Marc Vandeputte works mostly in the field of Aquaculture, limiting it down to topics relating to Fish meal and, in certain cases, Predatory fish, Food science and Trout, as a part of the same area of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (74.55%)
  • Sea bass (65.62%)
  • Heritability (65.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Animal science (74.55%)
  • Sea bass (65.62%)
  • Aquaculture (51.34%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Animal science, Sea bass, Aquaculture, Selective breeding and Dicentrarchus. His studies in Animal science integrate themes in fields like Feed conversion ratio, Juvenile and Heritability. His Sea bass study incorporates themes from Virology, Grouper, Betanodavirus, Mariculture and Nodaviridae.

Marc Vandeputte has researched Aquaculture in several fields, including Genetic gain and Fishery. His Selective breeding research integrates issues from Metabolic rate, Domestication, Acipenser baerii, Rainbow trout and Hatching. His study in Dicentrarchus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Larva, Sex ratio, Virus and Artificial fertilization.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The European sea bass: a key marine fish model in the wild and in aquaculture. (25 citations)
  • The European sea bass: a key marine fish model in the wild and in aquaculture. (25 citations)
  • Combining Individual Phenotypes of Feed Intake With Genomic Data to Improve Feed Efficiency in Sea Bass. (12 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Marc Vandeputte mostly deals with Aquaculture, Animal science, Selective breeding, Heritability and Sea bass. His study on Aquaculture is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Fishery. His Fishery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aerobic exercise, Genetic gain, Population genetics and Robustness.

His Animal science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Feed conversion ratio, Fish farming, Genetic correlation and Selection. His studies examine the connections between Heritability and genetics, as well as such issues in Broodstock, with regards to Trout, Rainbow trout, Genetic architecture and Dicentrarchus. His Sea bass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Quantitative genetics, Domestication and Reference genome.
