Journal ArticleDOI
Zooplankton of Lake Kivu, East Africa, half a century after the Tanganyika sardine introduction
Mwapu Isumbisho,Mwapu Isumbisho,Hugo Sarmento,Boniface Kaningini,Jean-Claude Micha,Jean-Pierre Descy +5 more
TL;DR: Measurements of body size indicate that sardine predation affects the cladoceran Diaphanosoma excisum, whereas the larger copepods may efficiently escape predation by migration in the deep mixolimnion at daytime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of a natural aquatic fern, Azolla microphylla, as a main component in food for the omnivorous-phytoplanktonophagous tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L.
TL;DR: An aquatic fern, Azolla microphylla (strain 175 MI, Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium), a natural source of protein, was used in this study to produce low-cost feeds for the omnivorous-phytoplanktonophagous tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of stocking density on growth, yield and profitability of farming Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., fed Azolla diet, in earthen ponds
TL;DR: Nile tilapia could be raised at a density of 3 fish m−2 with A40 to improve production and generate profit for nutritional security and poverty alleviation in rural areas and on the basis of growth values and economic return.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling trophic interactions in Lake Kivu: What roles do exotics play?
Maria Concepcion Villanueva,Mwapu Isumbisho,Boniface Kaningini,Jacques Moreau,Jean-Claude Micha +4 more
TL;DR: An Ecopath model of the southern part of Lake Kivu, a deep African equatorial lake, was constructed to quantitatively describe the possible impact of fish introductions in this ecosystem and the possible influence and role in the ecosystem's functioning of introduced fish species are discussed.
