Genetic improvement of farmed tilapias: the growth performance of eight strains of Oreochromis niloticus tested in different farm environments
Ambekar E. Eknath,Melchor M. Tayamen,Marietta S. Palada-de Vera,Jodecel C. Danting,Ruben A. Reyes,Edna E. Dionisio,Josephine B. Capili,Hernando L. Bolivar,Tereso A. Abella,Antonio V. Circa,Hans B. Bentsen,Bjarne Gjerde,Trygve Gjedrem,Roger S. V. Pullin +13 more
TL;DR: The results indicated highly significant differences among the growth performances of the eight strains, with the exception of the Ghana strain, the newly introduced African wild strains performed as well as or better than the most widely farmed Asian strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth and reproduction in fish and shellfish
TL;DR: More research is needed to better understand both the phenotypic and genetic relationships between growth, survival and fecundity traits and age at maturity in fish and shellfish.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feed intake, growth and feed utilization of offspring from wild and selected Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
TL;DR: The higher growth rate of the selected line was the result of both greater feed consumption and more efficient feed utilization for growth, implying that selection for increased growth rate in Atlantic salmon may improve both of these traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic origin of Norwegian farmed Atlantic salmon
TL;DR: Data from the first three generations of selection have been analysed to study the genetic origin of the four populations of Atlantic salmon, finding one to three strains dominate each population.

Body traits in rainbow trout: II. Estimates of heritabilities and of phenotypic and genetic correlations
Bjarne Gjerde,L.R. Schaeffer +1 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that condition factor is an adequate measure of body shape and the possibilities for genetic improvement of body weight, belly thickness, body shape, abdominal fat, fat in the meat and meat colour are very good in rainbow trout.
