Supplemental effects of mixed ingredients and rice bran on the growth performance, survival and yield of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus reared in fertilized earthen ponds.
Unaffordability of commercial feeds to semi-intensive Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus farmers has led to reliance on supplemental feeding and fertilization for nutrition of their fish without a scientific basis. This study compared the growth, survival, condition factor and yield performance of O. niloticus fed on mixed ingredients (MI) and rice bran alone (RB) diets reared in fertilized ea...

متن کاملEffect of Dietary α-Cellulose Levels on the Growth Parameters of Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus Fingerlings
Three purified diets were formulated using fish meal, soya bean, wheat flour, palm oil, minerals and maltose. The carbohydrate in the diets was increased from 5 to 15% by changing the cellulose content to study the effect of dietary carbohydrate level on the growth parameters of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. The protein and the lipid contents were kept constant in all the diets. The resul...
متن کاملTol2-mediated transgenesis in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an important species in aquaculture and an excellent model system for laboratory studies. Functional genetic analysis using this species has been difficult because existing methods for producing transgenics are inefficient. Here we show that the Tol2 transposon system can be used to create transgenic tilapia with high efficiency. We constructed a line...
متن کاملINFLUENCE OF WATERBORNE CADMIUM ON THE GROWTH AND IMMUNE-PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS OF NILE TILAPIA (Oreochromis niloticus)
Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (65.2±2.2 g) were randomly distributed into 12 glass aquaria to represent 4 treatments (3 replicates per treatment). Fish were exposed to cadmium chloride at concentrations of 0.0 (control), 0.05 (T1), 0.10 (T2) and 0.15 mg L -1 (T3) for 4 weeks. After the first, third and fourth week, fish were immediately anesthetized and blood was collected. Fish weight wa...
