Applied genetics of tilapias
Type: Working Paper
The present world production of tilapias is relatively low, despite their high potential for aquaculture. Most research efforts towards their husbandry have been aimed at solving the major problem in tilapia culture, ...
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 ...
Tilapia culture in Kuwait: a feasibility study. Vol. 3
Type: Book
This 3 volume study examines the feasibility of culturing tilapia in brackishwater in Kuwait.
Tilapia culture in Sudan
Type: Journal Article
The current status of tilapia culture in Sudan is examined, describing the pond culture system used. Future prospects are also examined. It is believed that great effort is required before fish farming can boost food ...
Research directions for tilapia culture
Type: Journal Article
Areas in which research is required regarding tilapia culture are indicated. The confused status of cultured stocks, a consensus on choice of species and culture methods are discussed.
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 ...
ICLARM and South-South technology transfer: Philippine aquaculture technology and Indonesia. Part II
Type: Journal Article
Details are given of the tilapia hatchery systems used in the Philippines i.e., the "hapa" floating hatcheries and the backyard pond hatcheries, and their applications in Indonesia. Experiments are being conducted in ...
Kenya pioneers intensive tank culture of tilapia
Type: Journal Article
Although it appears that the first recorded, scientifically oriented culture of tilapia was conducted in Kenya in 1924,of the current 30,000 ponds with a potential annual production of more than 7,000 tons, only 10% are ...
Applied genetics of tilapias
Type: Report
This paper reviews the successes and failures of genetic experiments on tilapias and points to various characteristics of tilapias, which require improvement for increased yields.
Experimental rearing of Nile tilapia fry (Oreochromis niloticus) for saltwater culture
Type: Report
Represents a preliminary evaluation of the utility of various approaches of early salinity exposure for saltwater culture of tilapias. Studies the reproductive performance of Nile tilapia under laboratory conditions at ...
