Heterosis, direct and maternal genetic effects on body traits in a complete diallel cross involving four strains of red tilapia Oreochromis spp
Type: Conference Paper
Heterosis, direct additive genetic and general reciprocal effects were estimated from a complete diallel cross involving four strains of red tilapia Oreochromis spp from Malaysia, Stirling, Taiwan and Thailand. The mating ...
Genetic improvement programs for aquaculture species in developing countries: prospects and challenges
Type: Conference Paper
Aquaculture in developing countries is largely based on unimproved fish strains. There is ample evidence indicating the potential of genetic improvement programs and a range of selection methods may be used. Examples of ...
Growth performance of mixed sex, hormonally sex reversed and progeny of YY male tilapia of the GIFT strain, Orechromis niloticus
Type: Journal Article
The growth performance of three experimental groups consisting of mixed sex fish (control), hormone-treated fish and progeny of YY male tilapia, all originated from the genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) strain was ...
