A farmer-oriented Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., breed improvement in the Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Opportunities for developing small-scale tilapia industry in the Philippines is hampered by the shortage of good-quality seeds and broodstock. Most small-scale farmers are dependent on distribution centres for improved ...
Genetic diversity in farmed Asian Nile and red hybrid tilapia stocks evaluated from microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA analysis
(Elsevier, 2004)
We analyzed microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (mtDNA-RFLP) in two domesticated (NIFI and Israel) and four genetically improved (GIFT, GMT, FAC-selected and SEAFDEC-selected) Nile ...
Selective diversification of aquaculture stocks: A proposal for economically sustainable genetic conservation
(NRC Research Press, 1991)
The genetic diversity of aquaculture stocks can be maintained, and their genetic impact on wild stocks minimized, by breeding programmes that deliberately generate genetic diversity. Current animal breeding practices are ...
