Salinity tolerance in superior genotypes of tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, Oreochromis mossambicus and their hybrids
2005-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Tilapias are important candidate species for brackish water aquaculture and are increasingly cultured in coastal ponds including in polyculture with shrimp, thus creating a demand for tilapia genotypes well suited to elevated salinities. The Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus dominates freshwater tilapia culture and has been the subject of recent efforts in genetic improvement but is one of the least salt tolerant...
