Genetic parameters and response to selection for growth in tambaqui

open access: yesAnimal, 2020
Although the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) is the most cultivated native fish species in Brazil, estimated breeding values for growth traits are rarely used for selection of superior individuals in commercial fingerling production. This study aimed to estimate the (co)variance components of growth traits.

Enzimas digestivas exógenas na alimentação de juvenis de tambaqui Exogenous digestive enzymes in tambaqui juvenile feeding

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2006
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da adição na ração das enzimas digestivas exógenas amilase, lipase e protease sobre o desempenho de tambaqui, em três experimentos independentes. Em cada experimento foi avaliado o efeito da inclusão de uma enzima na ração em diferentes porcentagens: 0,0, 0,05, 0,1 e 0,2%, cada uma com quatro repetições ...

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...
