Control of Ectoparasitic Monogenean Infestation on GIFT Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) using Salt Addition

PRODUCTION AND ECONOMICS OF GIFT STRAIN OF TILAPIA (Oreochromis niloticus) IN SMALL SEASONAL PONDS

The production and economics of GIFT strain of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) reared in nine seasonal small ponds at Bangladesh Agricultural University campus for a period of three months during August to October were evaluated. The experiment was arranged in three treatments (T) each with three replications. The ponds were drained, limed and fertilized with organic and inorganic fertilizers d...

Euryhaline tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus

regulated by, and suited to, the environment in which they reproduce. In many teleosts, which spawn in either freshwater or seawater, sperm motility is initiated by osmotic shock when sperm are ejaculated. These osmolality dependent regulatory systems are quite different in freshwater cyprinid teleosts, such as carp, gold fish and zebrafish, and marine teleosts, such as the pufferfish and floun...

Expression of Neuropeptide Y of GIFT Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) in Yeast Pichia Pastoris and Its Stimulatory Effects on Food Intake and Growth

Effect of 17α-methyltestosterone (MT) on oxidation stress in the liver of juvenile GIFT tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

The normal dose of 17α-methyltestosterone (MT) used in fish farming was 60 mg/L, and now the analysis of residual androgens was carried out in waste water obtained from the Beijing area, which could be detected in levels ranging from 4.1 to 7.0 ng/L. For the purpose of aquatic early warning, the present study clearly demonstrated that chronic exposure by higher concentration of MT than environm...

Streptococcosis on a red tilapia, Oreochromis sp., farm: a case study.

A commercial red tilapia farm was diagnosed with Streptococcus agalactiae infection using histopathology, microbiology and immunohistochemistry. One hundred fish were randomly taken from different weight/age groups including broodstock, market fish (larger than 150 g), on-growing fish between 20 and 150 g, juveniles and larvae. Fish were clinically examined, anaesthetised and necropsied. Sample...
