معرفی
Roberta Marcoli is a Researcher at James Cook University, specializing in aquaculture and fish biology. Her work focuses on the genetic and physiological mechanisms underlying fish coloration patterns, environmental stress responses, and the application of genetic editing in aquaculture improvement. She has contributed to studies on barramundi (Lates calcarifer) and Chinook salmon, exploring topics such as multiomics analysis, histological structures, and molecular drivers of phenotypic traits.
Her research interests include understanding rare coloration phenomena in fish through integrative omics approaches, optimizing commercial aquaculture traits via genetic tools, and assessing physiological resilience under environmental stressors. Recent work highlights the use of gene editing to accelerate genetic improvement in farmed fish populations.
Marcoli’s publications (2023–2024) demonstrate a focus on bridging molecular biology with applied aquaculture challenges, with studies published in journals like Journal of Fish Biology, Reviews in Aquaculture, and Biology.
