Investment Appraisal of Genetic Improvement Programs in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
The economic benefit derived from a genetic improvement program with Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was examined from a national perspective. An industry structure was assumed whereby the genetic improvement program ...
The impact of genetically improved farmed Nile tilapia in Asia
Type: Journal Article
The International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM) and its research partners have recently developed a genetically improved Nile tilapia strain. This paper analyzes the potential impact of culturing ...
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 ...
Angeles declaration: public-private partnerships for dissemination of research outputs to end-users
Type: Brochure
The Workshop on Public-Private Partnerships for the Delivery of Tilapia Genetic Research Outputs to Philippine End-users was held in Angeles City, Philippines during 25-27 June 2003 to review and improve the protocol of ...
Performance and nature of genetically improved farmed tilapia: a bioeconomic analysis
Type: Journal Article
The International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM), in collaboration with its partner organizations, has developed an improved strain of Nile tilapia (known as the GIFT strain) which shows superior ...
Can sexual dimorphism and body shape be altered in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) by genetic means?
Type: Journal Article
The objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters in GIFT (Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia), especially focusing on the genetic correlation between trait expressions in both sexes and among measurements ...
From drawing board to dining table: the success story of the GIFT project
Type: Journal Article
As compared to crops and livestock, the genetic enhancement of fish is in its infancy. While significant progress has been achieved in the genetic improvement of temperate fish such as salmonids, no efforts were made until ...
Socioeconomics of disseminating genetically improved Nile tilapia in Asia: an introduction
Type: Journal Article
The International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM) undertook a major strategic research project known as the "Genetic Improvement of Farmed Tilapias" (GIFT), with funding support from the United ...
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.
Phenotypic and genetic parameters for body measurements, reproductive traits and gut length of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) selected for growth in low-input earthen ponds
Type: Journal Article
In this study we present estimates of phenotypic and genetic parameters for body size measurements, reproductive traits, and gut length for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) selected for growth in fertilized earthen ...
