Growth and survival rate of three genetic groups fed 28% and 34% protein diets
Type: Journal Article
The strain by nutrition interaction in body weight and survival rate was examined by testing three genetic groups (Selection and Control lines of the GIFT strain, and Red tilapia) at two levels of protein in the diet (28% ...
Multiple water use as an approach for increased basin productivity and improved adaptation: a case study from Bangladesh
Type: Journal Article
This study, supported by the Challenge Program Water and Food (CPWF-Project 35), demonstrates the case of multiple-use of water through seasonal aquaculture interventions for improved rice–fish production systems in the ...
Genotype by production environment interaction in the GIFT strain of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Type: Journal Article
Three discrete generations of GIFT fish (Nile tilapia strain, Oreochromis niloticus; a total of 10,065 fish with pedigree and phenotypic information) were tested in pond and cage culture environments to determine genotype ...
Aquaculture
Type: Brochure
The Bangladesh Aquaculture Project is a 5 year transformative investment by USAID in aquaculture, focused on the 20 southern districts in Barisal, Khulna and Dhaka divisions of Bangladesh. The objectives of the project are ...
Aquaculture's unrealised potential: an ASARECA funded partnership learning programme for the fisheries sector
Type: Brief
The potential of aquaculture to reduce poverty and hunger has been recognised in Africa. However, growth in the sector has been limited up-to-now, providing less than 2% of total fish production. In Eastern and Central ...
Effect of gypsum treatment on water quality parameters and fish performance in fertilized polyculture earthen ponds
Type: Journal Article
This experiment aimed to study the effect of agriculture gypsum treatment in aquaculture ponds (to raise water total hardness) on the physico-chemical and biological parameters of pond water and fish performance in a ...
Genetic improvement of farmed tilapias: Genetic parameters for body weight at harvest in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) during five generations of testing in multiple environments
Type: Journal Article
The main objective of this paper was to report more reliable estimates of the genetic variation and the genotype by test environment interaction for harvest body weight in the GIFT population in the Philippines than could ...
FishBase and SeaLifeBase: the database structure can manage data and information on aquatic genetic resources for all marine and freshwater organisms
Type: Book Chapter
An overview of FishBase and SeaLifebase was given.
Commune Agroecosystem Analysis in Cambodia: a guidance manual
Type: Manual
Commune Agroecosystems Analysis (CAEA) is a participatory analysis methodology used by the Department of Agricultural Extension to identify and prioritize agricultural development needs at the commune level. This manual ...
Value chain analysis of the Egyptian aquaculture sector
Type: Conference Paper
Egypt’s aquaculture production (921,585 tonnes in 2010) is by far the largest of any African country and places it 11th in terms of global production. Despite the fact that the aquaculture sector in Egypt is now a mature ...
