Digestibility of Insect Meals for Nile Tilapia Fingerlings [PDF]
Insects are a valuable source of nutrients for fish, but little is known about their nutritional value for Nile tilapia fingerlings. To evaluate the nutritional value and energy apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of five insects for Nile Tilapia male fingerlings, 900 fish were distributed in 18 fiberglass conic tanks, in a completely randomized ...

Bacterial pigment for Nile tilapia feeding [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different carotenoids sources in tilapia fish diets on the animals’ performance and fillets characteristics. Nine hundred and sixty tilapias, Oreochromis niloticus, averaging 15 g were distributed into 24 tanks to receive one of the six treatments (four repetitions) for 80 days: basal diet with no ...

Aggressiveness overcomes body-size effects in fights staged between invasive and native fish species with overlapping niches. [PDF]
Approximately 50 years ago, Nile tilapia were accidentally introduced to Brazil, and the decline of pearl cichlid populations, which has been intensified by habitat degradation, in some locations has been associated with the presence of Nile tilapia ...

Transcriptomic response to aquaculture intensification in Nile tilapia [PDF]
AbstractTo meet future global demand for fish protein, more fish will need to be farmed using fewer resources, and this will require the selection of nonaggressive individuals that perform well at high densities. Yet, the genetic changes underlying loss of aggression and adaptation to crowding during aquaculture intensification are largely unknown.

Summary: We identified that the genes heat shock transcription factor 5 (hsf5) and ring finger protein 43 (rnf43) happened fusion in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), called hsf5-rnf43, and provided the characteristic and functional analysis of hsf5 ...

Amino Acid Requirements for Nile Tilapia: An Update
This review aims to consolidate the relevant published data exploring the amino acid (AA) requirements of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, and to reach a new set of recommendations based on those data. There are still inconsistencies in lysine, sulfur-containing AA, threonine, tryptophan, branched-chain AA, and total aromatic AA recommendations in ...

Environmental color affects Nile tilapia reproduction [PDF]
We investigated the effects of environmental color on the reproductive behavior of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. Two environmental colors were tested by covering the aquarium (60 x 60 x 40 cm) with white (12 groups) or blue (13 groups) cellophane and observing reproductive behavior in groups of 2 males (10.27 +/- 0.45 cm) and 3 females (10.78 +/-

Agroindustrial byproducts in diets for Nile tilapia juveniles [PDF]
This study was conducted to evaluate performance and body composition of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fed diets containing byproducts aerial parts of cassava meal (Manihot esculenta), mesquite pod meal (Prosopis juliflora), cocoa meal (Theobroma cacao) and palm kernel cake (Elaeis guineensis) and to analyze the economic viability of the feed.
