Investigating the role of algae in tilapia production
Type: Journal Article
Evidence for the role of algae as food in tilapia production is contradictory and typifies a general uncertainty about the importance of algae-to-fish food pathway in aquaculture. Viewpoints regarding the importance of ...
Indices of overall growth performance of 100 tilapia (Cichlidae) populations
Type: Conference Paper
Four indices for comparing the overall growth performance of fishes ( omega , P, Phi , and Phi ') proposed by various authors are assessed, based on growth parameter estimates in 100 populations of tilapia in 15 species of the ...
