The welfare of farmed Nile tilapia: a review. [PDF]
Nile tilapia are, by absolute number of individuals, the most farmed species of fish today, yet we know little about how common husbandry practices impact their welfare. Despite their global importance, there is a notable lack of detailed, species-specific welfare guidelines for tilapia farming.

Identification and Characterization of a Non-muscular Myostatin in the Nile Tilapia [PDF]
The growth and differentiation factor Myostatin (MSTN, also known as GDF8) negatively regulates skeletal muscle development and growth in vertebrates. Most fish genomes contain two or more mstn genes, which are expressed in muscle and other tissues. Yet,

The morphological aspect of a brown tilapia compared to that of the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) [PDF]
Brown tilapia is the descendant of long-finned ornamental tilapia. This is a new kind of tilapia with normal-sized fins. Thus, it is not suitable as an ornamental fish. Despite this, the feasibility of brown tilapia for food fish should be evaluated. The

Polyculture of bullfrog tadpoles and Nile tilapia fry [PDF]
Two experiments were carried out to test better stocking proportion according to animal size for tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and tadpole (Lithobates catesbeianus). The experiments were laid out in a completely randomized design with five treatments (in Experiment I) and four treatments (in Experiment II).

Social Behavior and Welfare in Nile Tilapia [PDF]
Fish social behavior can be affected by artificial environments, particularly by factors that act upon species that show aggressive behavior to set social rank hierarchy. Although aggressive interactions are part of the natural behavior in fish, if constant and intense, such interactions can cause severe body injuries, increase energy expenditure, and ...

Ontogeny in the visual system of Nile tilapia [PDF]
SUMMARYRetinal neurogenesis in fish facilitates cellular rearrangement throughout ontogeny, potentially allowing for optimization of the visual system to shifts in habitat and behaviour. To test this possibility, we studied the developmental trajectory of the photopic visual process in the Nile tilapia.
