Selective breeding in fish and conservation of genetic resources for aquaculture
Type: Journal Article
To satisfy increasing demands for fish as food, progress must occur towards greater aquaculture productivity whilst retaining the wild and farmed genetic resources that underpin global fish production. We review the main ...
Genetic analysis of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) selection line reared in two input environments
Type: Journal Article
Ascertaining the appropriate selection environment for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Africa is a critical issue. Two data sets derived from two selection lines originating from a common base population were ...
Performances of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) selected for high growth rate after three generations
Type: Journal Article
A selective breeding study for live weight based on a fully pedigreed population of GIFT (Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia) strain was carried out at the Aquaculture Extension Centre, Department of Fisheries, Jitra, ...
Genetic improvement of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) with special reference to the work conducted by the WorldFish Center with the GIFT strain
Type: Journal Article
We mainly (but not exclusively) draw on research and development work carried out by The WorldFish Center (WorldFish). We review in detail the current state of development of a selection program that has had a main focus ...
