The Effects of feed restriction and isolated or group rearing on the measurement of individual feed intake and estimation of feed conversion ratio in juvenile Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) for selective breeding purposes
Type: Journal Article
Accurately measuring the phenotype at the individual level is critical to the success of selective breeding programs. Feed efficiency is a key sustainability trait and is typically approached through feed conversion ratio ...
Measuring individual feed efficiency and its correlations with performance traits in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus
Type: Journal Article
Estimating individual feed intake of fish held in groups has long been a challenge precluding precise knowledge of the individual variation of feed efficiency (FE) in fish. In this study, counts of the number of feed pellets ...
