Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) reveal sibship among founders of a Bangladeshi Rohu (Labeo rohita) breeding population
Type: Journal Article
Rohu (Labeo rohita) is a significant freshwater aquaculture species with approximately 1.8 Mt produced annually. Fin clips obtained from the founders of a newly established Bangladesh-based breeding population (∼140 fish ...
Genotype-by-culture-system interaction in catla and silver carp: Monoculture and biculture
Type: Journal Article
Catla (Catla catla) and silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) are globally significant aquaculture species, primarily grown in polyculture. The objectives of the current study were to i) quantify genetic differences ...
Sibship assignment to the founders of a Bangladeshi Catla catla breeding population
Type: Journal Article
In terms of quantity produced, Catla catla is the sixth most important finfish aquaculture species produced globally in 2015. It is primarily grown in South Asia, often on a small scale in polyculture with other species. ...
Preferences for rohu fish (L. rohita) traits of women and men from farming households in Bangladesh and India
Type: Journal Article
As selective breeding programs are time-consuming and expensive, it is critical that clients preferred traits are accurately identified. This is important to achieve value for money and adoption of selectively improved ...
Genetic relationships among founders of a silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) genetic improvement program in Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) is an important aquaculture species in Bangladesh and globally. Multiple introductions have been made of this exotic species to Bangladesh since 1969. Accordingly, the genetic ...
A review of access and benefit-sharing measures and literature in key aquaculture-producing countries
Type: Journal Article
Countries increasingly use access and benefit-sharing laws as a tool for the conservation and sustainable use of biological resources and associated traditional knowledge. These laws generally require the recipient of ...
On-farm performance of genetically-improved rohu (Labeo rohita) in Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Introduction: Rohu (Labeo rohita Hamilton) is a globally significant aquaculture species for which genetically improved strains are increasingly available. In 2020, a multiplier population, comprised of highly–ranked ...
Growth, yield and profitability of genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) and non-GIFT strains in Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
On-farm performance of the genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) strain in monoculture and polyculture ponds in Bangladesh was assessed using a stratified random sample of 213 GIFT and 256 non-GIFT farmers. The GIFT ...
Early selection to enhance genetic gain in a rohu (Labeo rohita) genetic improvement program
Type: Journal Article
Multiple-stage selection can, in certain circumstances, be adopted to enhance genetic gain in genetic improvement programs while avoiding the cost of assessing and maintaining all individuals for extended periods. The ...
Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) trait preferences by women and men farmers in Jessore and Mymensingh districts of Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
Research reporting user trait preferences for fish, particularly in relation to guiding genetic improvement programs are rare, even in tilapia where demand for genetically improved fish has underpinned the expansion of ...
