Growth, mortality and recruitment of commercially important fishes and penaeid shrimps in Indonesian waters
(1986)Estimates of von Bertalanffy growth parameters were derived through application of the ELEFAN I program to lengthfrequency data from 52 stocks and 36 species of commercially important bony fishes from Indonesian waters, ... -
A simple method for estimating the food consumption of fish populations from growth data and food conversion experiments
(1986)A multiple-regression extension of the basic model is presented which accounts for the impact of factors other than body weight on values of K1 and p. This method is illustrated with an analysis of data on dab (Limanda limianda). -
Indices of overall growth performance of 100 tilapia (Cichlidae) populations
(1986)Four indices for comparing the overall growth performance of fishes ( omega , P, Phi , and Phi ') proposed by various authors are assessed, based on growth parameter estimates in 100 populations of tilapia in 15 species of the ... -
Tilapia marketing tests in Kuwait
(1986)In 1982, live tilapia (Oreochromis ) were introduced into the Kuwait markets for the first time as part of a project to determine their aquaculture potential in Kuwait. Further market tests were held in 1983, 1984 and 1985. ... -
Electrophoretic evidence for extensive hybrid gene introgression into commercial Oreochromis niloticus (L.) stocks in the Philippines
(1986)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 ... -

Aquaculture production in Asia: a reassessment
(1986)Asia has a long history of fishfarming, yet aquaculture production data from most countries still remain crude estimates. Aquaculturally developed nations such as Japan, China and some Southeast Asian countries had begun ... -
Contract system boosts Chinese fish production

Cultivation and propagation of mullet (Mugil so-iuy) in China
(1987)Details are given of the process of cultivation of mullet (Mugil so-iuy ) used in China, describing the guiding of fry into ponds, harvesting, overwintering, production, disease and predators. Artificial breeding is also ... -
Multivariate models of tilapia and carp growth as an application of microcomputers in aquaculture research
(1987)An examination is made of the applications of microcomputers to aquaculture research, considering in particular data storage and processing and also statistical analysis programmes. Reference is made to development projects ... -
Proliferation of Asian reservoirs: the need for integrated management
(1987)The environmental impact of the recent reservoir development in Asia is examined with respect to fishery and aquaculture management. -
Parasitic diseases in tilapia and carp production
(1987)A brief account is given of parasites affecting tilapia and carp, covering helminths, bacteria and protozoa. Effects onproduction of culture species are considered in particular, indicating precautions to be taken to reduce ... -
Tilapia culture in Sudan
(1987)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 ... -

The fish artists
(1988)The advantages of a fish painting over a photograph are many. Usually the fish photographed is dead, so its color has probably changed; the fins have to be propped up and damage often occurs. In life, a fish rarely extends ...
