The Genetic Improvement of Farmed Tilapias (GIFT) project: the story so far
Type: Journal Article
This issue of Naga features three articles about a project on the Genetic Improvement of Farmed Tilapias (GIFT) and a related article on the trend to genetic deterioration in some carp hatcheries. The first is on the genesis ...
Approaches to national fish breeding programs: pointers from a tilapia pilot study
Type: Journal Article
Details are given of a framework for developing breeding programmes using experience from the Genetic Improvement of Farmed Tilapias project which focussed on Nile tilapias (Oreochromis niloticus ). The following aspects ...
Ressources genetiques en tilapias pour l'aquaculture
Type: Conference Proceedings
Tilapia culture in Asia and other non African countries is practiced on a narrow genetic base. In contrast, African countries, many of which need assistance to develop their own aquaculture sectors, hold the global wealth ...
Genetic improvement of farmed tilapias: biochemical characterization of strain differences in Nile tilapia
Type: Journal Article
Four African wild strains (Egypt, Ghana, Senegal and Kenya) and four established Asian farmed strains of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (popularly known in the Philippines as 'Taiwan', 'Thailand', 'Singapore' an ...
Tilapia genetic resources for aquaculture
Type: Conference Proceedings
Tilapia culture in Asia and other non African countries is practiced on a narrow genetic base. In contrast, African countries, many of which need assistance to develop their own aquaculture sectors, hold the global wealth ...
Electrophoretic evidence for extensive hybrid gene introgression into commercial Oreochromis niloticus (L.) stocks in the Philippines
Type: Journal Article
The usefulness of isozyme and protein markers in identifying tilapia species and their hybrids is demonstrated Genetic characterization of Oreochromis niloticus populations from commercial farms, experimental stations, and ...
Enzyme electrophoresis in Tilapia zillii: a pattern for determining biochemical genetic markers for use in tilapia stock identification
Type: Journal Article
A variety of tissues from T. zillii was examined by horizontal starch gel electrophoresis to identify isozymes of potential use as genetic markers for stock identification. Techniques were assessed for 30 enzymes coded for ...
The Second International Symposium on Tilapia in Aquaculture
Type: Conference Proceedings
Proceedings of the symposium held in 1987 in Bangkok, Thailand, by tilapia scientists to discuss strategies for future research and development in the tilapia industry worldwide. Contains 82 full papers, 17 poster abstracts ...
