TLDR
This finding may provide the basis for important research aimed at understanding the genetic origin of this phenotype, which could be incorporated into genetic breeding programs to develop other boneless strains of tambaqui as well as other Characiforme and Cypriniforme species.About:

South American fish species suitable for aquaponics: a review
Sara Mello Pinho,Sara Mello Pinho,Luiz H. David,Fabiana Garcia,Fabiana Garcia,Karel J. Keesman,Maria Célia Portella,Simon Goddek +7 more
TL;DR: Data for five South American fish species with potential for aquaponics were compared with existing data for the main traditional warm water species in this system, tilapia and catfish and the degree of suitability of the novel species for these systems in terms of zootechnical performance, tolerance to water quality and nutritional composition of fish flesh were discussed.

Genetic parameter estimates for intermuscular bone in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) based on a microsatellite-based pedigree
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the heritability of the number of intermuscular bones (IBs) in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala), which is one major aquaculture species in China.

The intermuscular bones and ligaments of teleostean fishes
Colin Patterson,G. David Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: Patterson and Johnson as discussed by the authors described the intermuscular bones and ligaments of teleostean fishes and provided a detailed description of the skeleton and ligament structures of these fishes.

Life history and management of the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum, Characidae): an important Amazonian food fish
TL;DR: The genus has not been adequately revised, but it appears to be represented by only two species in the Amazon Basin, and the Amazonianspecies are much confused in the literature, but easily distinguished up onexamination of live or dead specimens.

Flesh quality improvement in fish through breeding
TL;DR: There is an unfavourable genetic correlation between body weight and the traits fat percentage and area of fat depot, and the expected response to selection in quality traits varies between 5 and 15% per generation.

Cage culture of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) in a central Amazon floodplain lake
Levy de Carvalho Gomes,Edsandra Campos Chagas,Heitor Martins-Junior,Rodrigo Roubach,Eduardo Akifumi Ono,José Nestor de Paula Lourenço +5 more
TL;DR: Economic sensitivity analysis showed that economic performance of tambaqui raised in cages is more sensitive to sale price then to feed cost, and higher stocking densities should be tested to increase fish yield/m 3.
