Genetic characterization and antimicrobial profiling of bacterial isolates collected from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) affected by summer mortality syndrome
Type: Journal Article
In recent years, Egyptian tilapia aquaculture has experienced mortality episodes during the summer months. The causative agents responsible for such mortalities have not been clearly identified. A total of 400 fish specimens ...
Le troisieme symposium international sur le tilapia en aquaculture
Type: Conference Proceedings
Tilapias, because of the low cost and relative ease of their production, are a potential food fish staple for many people in tropical countries and a globally traded commodity. This volume of symposium proceedings shows a ...
Tilapia culture systems in Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
In Bangladesh, tilapia growout in different types of culture systems has shown value to both current and future fish producers. Both rural and urban consumers are likely to benefit from more widespread stocking of tilapia ...
Zambia Aquaculture Enterprise Development Project (ZAEDP): Genetic improvement program
Type: Brief
With technical support from WorldFish, the government of Zambia is implementing a genetic improvement
program (GIP) for the indigenous three-spotted tilapia (Oreochromis andersonii) (Plate 1) under the Zambia
Aquaculture ...
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 ...
Best management practices for commercial tilapia reproduction in Northeast Africa
Type: Manual
Tilapia hatcheries are the most common type of fish hatchery in Egypt, as well as many other countries
globally. Their success has helped supply fish farms with quality tilapia seed, which in turn has increased
farmed fish ...
Genetic parameters and response to selection for live weight in the GIFT strain of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
Genetic improvement programs can increase the productivity of cultured aquatic species. Their rigorous design requires knowledge about parameters such as herit-ability and correlations among the traits under selection. ...
Dissemination and evaluation of genetically improved tilapia species in Asia (DEGITA): technical report (Nov 1994 to Jun 1995)
Type: Report
Recognizing the importance of genetic improvement in aquaculture production, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) provided a technical assistance grant (RETA No. 5279) to the International Center for Living Aquatic Resources ...
Growth and feed utilization of Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings fed with diets containing cassava peelings and mango seeds
Type: Journal Article
The results are presented of trials conducted whereby cassava peel and mango seed were fed to Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus ) fingerlings. Findings indicate that these products may successfully be used as part of thediets ...
Selective breeding trait preferences for farmed tilapia among low-income women and men consumers in Egypt; Implications for pro-poor and gender-responsive fish breeding programmes
Type: Journal Article
A number of studies have highlighted the promising growth of Egyptian tilapia aquaculture and the role of genetically improved strains in this development, such as the Abbassa Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus, Linneaus, ...
