This makes it very important to understand the background history of any stock to evaluate its aquaculture potential and to better interpret results from the growing number of genetic and genomic studies conducted on tilapia...
Fish were obtained from a local hatchery in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. They were acclimatized in a large household cage and fed commercial (CP 9951) for the first two weeks, followed by a basal diet for an additional two weeks. Prior to the feeding trial, the health status of 20 fis...

The study was carried out in a tilapia hatchery/nursery pond in the Philippines to explore the potential for a farmer-based research on tilapia breed improvement using relatively simple artificial selection procedures.Zubaida U BasiaoDepartment of Aquaculture...
These analyses of the tilapia fingerling industry in the Philippines focus on the economics of production in different hatchery systems and on fingerling marketing channels. The analyses are based on cross-sectional data from government and private hatcheries in late 1982 and from December 1983 to ...
Tilapia is one of the world's most farmed species, currently grown in more than 120 countries. It has a temperature tolerance that allows it to thrive anywhere from the Sub-Sa-hara to Scandinavia. The world's top producers are China, Indonesia, Egypt, Brazil and the Philippines.Favoured by...
MANILA, Philippines - In a bid to make creeks and rivers more productive, some 2.7 million tilapia fingerlings were dispersed to communal bodies of water in the municipalities of Malasiqui, Pozorrubio and Agno last year. This is part of Gov. Amado Espino Jr.'s program to protect the ...
The genetic status and species composition of farmed tilapia stocks has been complicated because of multiple introductions of different species from Africa, difficulties in species identification, the widespread application of interspecific hybridization, and poor hatchery management that has allowed hybrid ...
