Heritability estimates and response to selection for growth of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in low-input earthen ponds
Type: Journal Article
This study presents results of two generations of selection (G1 and G2) for growth of Nile tilapia. The selection environment consisted of earthen ponds which were fertilized daily with 50 kg dry matter (dm)/ha chicken ...
Effect of varying density and water level on the spawning response of African catfish Clarias gariepinus: Implications for seed production
Type: Journal Article
The development of a reliable methodology for spawning of African catfish, Clarias gariepinus without the use of hormone injections would greatly improve the prospects of aquaculture in Africa. Earlier work has shown that ...
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 ...
