Abstract
Research activities on tilapia focused on Oreochromis niloticus and red tilapia. Experiments include developing new experimental and statistical procedures for strain evaluation, development of a stable reference strain, development of a high-yield red tilapia strain through introgressive hybridization, comparison of fish growth in different environments relevant to aquaculture, development of an index for routine monitoring of salinity tolerance of existing tilapia strains/experimental stocks, evaluation of nutritional requirements of red tilapia, and determination of heavy metal contents of tilapia in Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines. Research on carp (Aristichthys nobilis) and catfish (Clarias macrocephalus) were focused on improvement of methods for induced spawning, development of seed production techniques, and nutritional requirement of bighead carp fry and broodstock.
