Genome-wide association analysis of adaptation to oxygen stress in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
Background: Tilapia is one of the most abundant species in aquaculture. Hypoxia is known to depress growth rate, but the genetic mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. In this study, two groups consisting of 3140 fish ...
FISH Hidden Gems
Type: Brief
FISH research teams were requested during November 2021 to identify areas of promising research and innovation that have emerged during the FISH program, beyond the major innovation packages already highlighted. The following ...
A systematic literature review of the major factors causing yield gap by affecting growth, feed conversion ratio and survival in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
Productivity among small‐ and medium‐scale tilapia farms varies considerably. The difference between the best performers and lower ones (yield gap), is affected by differences in growth rate and feed conversion ratio (FCR). ...
Environmental performance of blue foods
Type: Journal Article
Fish and other aquatic foods (blue foods) present an opportunity for more sustainable diets. Yet comprehensive comparison has been limited due to sparse inclusion of blue foods in environmental impact studies relative to ...
Quantifying greenhouse gas emissions from global aquaculture
Type: Journal Article
Global aquaculture makes an important contribution to food security directly (by increasing food availability and accessibility) and indirectly (as a driver of economic development). In order to enable sustainable expansion ...
Step-by-step guide to conducting digital surveys for aquaculture performance assessment (Final published version)
Type: Manual
The WorldFish objective for sustainable aquaculture within the CGIAR Research Program on Fish Agri-Food Systems (FISH) focuses on enabling enterprises to progressively enhance production of aquatic foods in a more efficient ...
Content creator guidelines: How to manage digital surveys for aquaculture using KoBoToolbox and ODK Collect mobile app
Type: Manual
These guidelines provide the steps needed to use both the KoBoToolbox web-based form and the ODK Collect mobile app for accessing surveys and uploading content. It is aimed at principal investigators (PIs), co-PIs and team ...
End user guidelines : How to sign up and access the course on aquaculture survey with ODK on Learn.ink
Type: Manual
Learn.ink is an online platform for digitized learning and training. Sharing digital content on mobile devices is important for efficient knowledge sharing and training to work with target community groups on a range of ...
Genomic Selection and Genome-wide Association Study for Feed-Efficiency Traits in a Farmed Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Population
Type: Journal Article
Nile tilapia is a key aquaculture species with one of the highest production volumes globally. Genetic improvement of feed efficiency via selective breeding is an important goal, and genomic selection may expedite this ...
