Allotriploidy increases sterility in the hybrid between Clarias macrocephalus and Clarias gariepinus
2004-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Hybrids between female Thai walking catfish (Clarias macrocephalus) and male African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) are capable of reproducing, and this has led to introgression of genes from the paternal species into natural populations of the native C. macrocephalus. Therefore this study was conducted aiming at producing sterile triploid hybrids by means of cold shock. Eggs from C. macrocephalus were fertilized wi...
