AbstractDense single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays are essential tools for rapid high-throughput genotyping for many genetic analyses, including genomic selection and high-resolution population genomic assessments. We present a high-density (200 K) SNP array developed for the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginicar2C. virginica
