Hormonal sex reversal in red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus and Oreochromis mossambicus) and inheritance of body colour in O. mossambicus and red tilapia: implications for commercial farming

2017-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The present investigation was conducted with a view to produce a female-free population and to test the heredity of body colour in tilapia. In this study, 6-day-old red tilapia were fed diets incorporated with 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/kg diet of a synthetic androgen, 17α-methyltestosterone (17α-MT), for 30 days. Administration was followed by 120 days of rearing in nylon hapas where hormone-free diet was given. At...
