TYC Eradication StrategyFor a target fish utilizing a simple XY sex-determination system, the addition of YY female sex-reversed fish (Fyy) to a normal population of exotic fish can cause extinction by reducing the numbers of normal females (Fxx) to zero over time.
Fyy fish must be added in an amount that represents at least 1.07 % of the total population, and the addition must be continuous over time.
The shift in the sex ratio of the population requires many generations, thus extinction may require decades.

There are 10 types of mating pairs that can occur in the population, and the genotypes of progeny from each mating can be determined using a binomial distribution.
Each of the 11 fish in the population can be represented by an ordinary differential equation.

1. The target fish must have a XY sex-determination system
2. The target fish must be amenable to hormone-induced sex reversal
3. A female fish with two Y chromosomes (Fyy) must beviable and mate at the same efficiency as wildtype
4. The target fish must be amenable to propagation via aquaculture

Why a Trojan Y Chromosome strategy might be an appropriate technique for
controlling invasive species
• Species specific
• Requires no new technology development
• Involves standard aquaculture techniques, norecombinant DNA
•Trojan Y chromosome fish have been already beenproduced in one species (Oreochromis niloticus)
• Reversible

Risks• The invasive species is maintained at the carryingcapacity of the system until females are eliminated. The harmful affects of the invasive species thus persistuntil females are eliminated.
• If insufficient numbers of Trojan Y Chromosome fish areadded to the system, extinction will not occur.
• The strategy must be employed for decades to reachextinction.

What is the timeline for the TYC strategy to be used for control or
elimination of a non-native species in the wild?
An test of the system on Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus ) could be done at the present time if existing YY broodstock were made available.
Development of a TYC strategy for other invasive fish species (Asian carps, snakehead) will require basic research to characterize the respective features of sex-determination, YY viability, sex-reversal, gynogeny, and suitability for aquaculture for each species.
![Page 27: A Trojan Y Chromosome Strategy for the Eradication of ... · PDF fileA Trojan Y Chromosome Strategy for the Eradication of Invasive Fish ... XX. XY. X. XX. XY. X. Y. Y. XY. YY. Y](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103107/5abbbe1c7f8b9a441d8d2c68/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Under identical modeling conditions, extinction of females occurs faster with the Trojan Y Chromosome approach as compared to Daughterless.
A combined strategy of TYC and Daughterless results in the extinction of females in the shortest time and requires the lowest stocking rate (as compared to either TYC or Daughterless alone).
Additional research is needed to identify additional modifications to Trojan fish strategies that will improve efficiency and shorten extinction times.
How can genetic biocontrol strategies be further refined
and improved?
