Dr. Panya Sae-Lim
Brief Biography
Dr. Panya Sae-Lim is a senior geneticist, specialized in quantitative genetics, optimization of breeding program designed for aquatic species. He did both MSc and PhD in animal breeding and genetics from Wageningen University and Research, the Netherlands. He also actively works for several research projects in Norway and in Thailand (Department of Fisheries). His research focus on selective breeding for native species in Thailand, e.g. Nile Tilapia where a low-cost breeding program is relevant. For the food security, selective breeding provides more production with less input and environmental footprint and hence supports sustainable development.
Field of Interests
More than 15 years of experience in fish breeding and genetics, both on research and practical breeding programs for several freshwater and marine aquatic species. My research interest covers selective breeding, genomic prediction, genotype-by-environment interaction, genetic improvement for robustness in fish species. To date, technology in selective breeding has been improved substantially. A sustainable use of genetic potential from local genetic resources is extremely important and hence maintaining genetic diversity as well as selective breeding with a low-cost design are crucial in rural areas. This can be organized in term of cooperative and collaborative farming system to improve livelihood.
