Exploring the trophic structure in organically fertilized and feed-driven tilapia culture environments using multivariate analyses
Type: Journal Article
Reports of similar yields in manure and feed-driven tilapia culture environments raise questions on food utilization in these environments. The possibility that similar production rates are because of utilization of different ...
Effect of salinity on carrying capacity of adult Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus L. in recirculating systems
Type: Journal Article
Effect of salinity on carrying capacity of a recirculation system for Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L.; production was assessed. Survival, growth and feed conversion ratio of adult Nile tilapia fed 30% crude protein ...
Public and private partnerships in aquaculture : a case study on tilapia research and development
Type: Book
The book presents the findings of a study undertaken in Philippines during 2002-2004 to enhance the understanding of the evolving public and private partnerships and to determine their effects on sustainability and achievement ...
A comparison of GIFT and red tilapia for fillet yield and sensory attributes of flesh quality assessed by trained panel
Type: Conference Paper
Tilapia is a tropical freshwater fish, predicted to become the largest aquaculture production in the world, after carps, shrimp and salmonids, in the present century (Fitzsimmons, 2000). In Malaysia 85 per cent of the ...
Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) seed production in irrigated rice-fields in Northwest Bangladesh-an approach appropriate for poorer farmers?
Type: Journal Article
Participatory research was conducted with poorer farmers in two communities, Girai (G) and Bahagili (B) in NW Bangladesh to assess the production of Nile tilapia seed in irrigated spring rice-fields. All the selected ...
Genetic and environmental factors affecting growth of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) juveniles: Modelling spatial correlations between hapas
Type: Journal Article
The aim of this study was to quantify the environmental and genetic effects on early growth of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus.
Reproductive and patho-physiological responses of blue tilapia (Oreochromis aureus) exposed to chromium with or without chelating substances
Type: Journal Article
Water pollution with chromium included significant negative impact in the hematological and biochemical parameters together with marked histopathological alteration and lowering reproductive performance of fish. The addition ...
Effect of dietary probiotic Biogen supplementation as a growth promoter on growth performance and feed utilization of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.)
Type: Journal Article
Probiotic microbial feed supplements are gaining wide acceptance in livestock production, and may be applicable to aquaculture production systems. The present study was conducted to examine probiotic treatment in the ...
Mating systems and male reproductive success in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus): a microsatelite analysis
Type: Journal Article
Fry production in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus is typically achieved by mass spawning of males and females stocked in large hapas suspended in ponds. In such spawning aggregations, territorial behavior and reproductive ...
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 ...
