The history of channel catfish farming in the United States serves as a model for the development of pond-based aquaculture industries worldwide. Channel catfish farming is the largest and economically most important aquaculture industry in the United States. In 2003, over 300,000 metric tons (662 million pounds) of channel catfish were processed, representing about half the total United States aquaculture production. Demand for farm-raised catfish is strong, with record processing years in 2002 and 2003. In 22 chapters written by active scientists in the field, Biology and Culture of Channel Catfish comprehensively synthesizes over 30 years of research on this American icon. Throughout the book, fundamental biological aspects of channel catfish are linked to practical culture techniques. Topics include: • Latest information on reproductive physiology, genetics, and breeding • Comprehensive treatment of catfish nutrition, feeds, and feeding practices • Water quality management and pond dynamics • In-depth review of immunology in channel catfish • Practical information on diseases and health management • Techniques for commercial culture, including innovative techniques such as raceways, recirculating systems, and partitioned aquaculture systems • Catfish economics and marketing • Exploration of environmental concerns, including recommended Best Management Practices

Although catfish have been farmed for about 30 years and catfish farm ing is the most successful aquacultural enterprise in the United States, there are those who contend that catfish farming is still as much of an "art" as it is a science. This position is difficult to refute completely, particularly considering that some practices used in catfish farming ap pear to have little scientific basis. Skill coupled with a small dose of mysticism certainly playa role in the culture of catfish, and the catfish producer is faced with the unenviable task of rearing an animal in an environment that requires considerable management. Certain aspects may still be an "art" because research and technical information needed to support the industry have lagged behind industry growth; however, the basic principles underlying catfish farming are based on sound scientific evidence whose foundation was laid in the 1950s by work conducted at state and federal fish hatcheries in the southeastern and midwestern United States. Since that time, several university and government laboratories have expanded the scientific base for catfish farming. As a result, considerable information is available, but it is gen erally fragmented and exists in a multitude of diverse scientific and trade journals. The material is often too technical or abstract to be com prehensible to fish culturists and personnel in allied industries. This book fits the definition of the term handbook in the sense that it is intended as a book of instruction or guidance as well as a reference.

Catfish production is the largest aquaculture industry in the United States and infectious agents are responsible for 45% of all economic losses. Ictalurid herpesvirus 1 or Channel catfish virus (CCV) has a great economic impact on channel catfish aquaculture; yet it also has the potential for becoming a highly efficient vaccine vector eliciting long-lived immune responses against itself and, as a recombinant, other important catfish pathogens (bacteria, myxosporean, and fungi). However, little is known about CCV's genome, its gene functions or genetic interactions with its host. Better understanding of CCV biology and pathogenesis could enable more rational vaccine design and other control strategies for CCV. My thesis is that "systems biology" can enable much more rapid understanding of CCV biology and pathogenesis. To test this thesis I needed to first more fully annotate the CCV genome, then construct a rapid system for generating CCV mutants and recombinants for systems biology research and then apply these tools in a systems biology experiment. I experimentally annotated the CCV proteome by proteogenomic mapping followed by real-time PCR and confirmed the expression of 37 of the 76 previously predicted ORFs (25 for the first time) as well as 17 novel ORFs. I next constructed two different infectious clones of CCV: one as three overlapping bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) and the other as a full length CCV BAC. These CCV BACs facilitate CCV mutant and recombinant production and I regenerated a genotypically wild-type and an attenuated virus. To further simplify CCV mutant production, I next adapted the CCV infectious clone for lambda phage crossover recombination cloning to enable sequence transfer into a specific CCV locus by a simple one-step in-vitro reaction. Finally, I used the CCV infectious clone, in combination with affinity purification, to identify interacting partners of the CCV zinc RING finger proteins ORF9, ORF11 and ORF12 to provide insight into the topology of one presumptive CCV-channel catfish molecular interaction network module. The work in this dissertation supports my thesis and the CCV BAC tools were patented; together these provide tools to facilitate and accelerate the development and testing of better CCV vaccines.

The commercial culture of channel catfish in the south eastern part of the United States has grown at such an amazing rate in the last decade that more research efforts have been introduced to meet the need for additional technology. Although some of this research has been summarized within particular disciplines, there is no comprehensive treatise available that provides an overall summary of the current information available on the culture of this fish. This book has been written to try and cater for this need. However although researchers and commercial catfish producers will find much practical information in it, it is not intended to be only a fish culture manual. The material presented deals primarily with culture as practiced in the south eastern United States, but the principles should apply wherever this species is cultured.
