Background: Tilapia is one of the most abundant species in aquaculture. Hypoxia is known to depress growth rate, but the genetic mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. In this study, two groups consisting of 3140 fish ...
Quantitative trait loci controlling swimming performance and their effect on growth in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Yu, X.; Mengistu, S.; Mulder, H.A.; Palstra, A.; Benzie, J.; Trinh, T.Q.; Groenen, M.; Komen, H.; Megens, H.; John Benzie: 0000-0001-9599-8683 (2022)

Type: Journal Article

Critical swimming speed (Ucrit) is an important measurement of swimming performance and a good indicator for cardio-respiratory health. It offers a new opportunity to select fish with better fitness. However, the genomic ...
