Potential of genetics for aquaculture development in Africa
(2003)Type: Journal ArticleAquaculture in Africa is fairly insignificant by world standards and accounts for a mere 0.4 per cent of global aquaculture production. The application of genetics can play an important role in efforts to increase aquaculture ... -
Potential of grouper hybrid (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus x E. polyphekadion) for aquaculture
(1999)Type: Journal ArticleThe marine grouper species are considered high value food fish in several countries. However, controlled breeding and hatchery production of grouper fingerlings for commercial farming is still in its infancy. Investigations ... -

Predicting food consumption of fish populations as functions of mortality, food type, morphometrics, temperature and salinity
(1998)Type: Journal ArticleA large data set of relative food-consumption estimates (Q/B) of marine and freshwater fish populations (n = 108 populations, 38 species) is documented and used to derive a predictive model for Q/B, using asymptotic weight, ... -
Predicting self-recruitment in marine populations: biophysical correlates and mechanisms
(2002)Type: Journal ArticleMounting evidence suggests that some populations of benthic marine organisms may be less demographically ‘open’ than previously thought. The degree to which a population receives recruits from local sources versus other ... -
Preference of different terrestrial plants as food for Tilapia rendallli and Oreochromis shiranus
(1991)Type: Journal ArticleFish have distinct preferences for plants and there is need to identify those that will lead to good growth and production, especially in Africa where there is abundant natural and agricultural waste vegetation. Some plants ... -
