Complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater monogonont rotifer Brachionus angularis (Rotifera, Brachionidae)
(College of Science, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon 16419, South Korea, 2020)
The two complete mitochondrial genomes were sequenced from the freshwater monogonont
rotifer Brachionus angularis. The mitochondrial genome sequences were 10,764 bp
(mitochondrial DNA I) and 12,238 bp (mitochondrial DNA ...
Fish feeds and feed management practices in the Kenyan aquaculture sector: Challenges and opportunities
(Michigan State University Press, 2021)
Feeds and feed management practices are key to the development of the aquaculture sector. To achieve
high levels of aquaculture production, fish farmers need nutritionally adequate and cost-effective feeds,
which are ...
Selective breeding of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus: A strategy for increased genetic diversity and sustainable development of aquaculture in Kenya
(Taylor & Francis, 2021)
The aquaculture subsector is important in Kenya for food and nutritional security. The rapid growth of the subsector is evident especially in the widespread culture of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus); however, the ...
Aqua-Feed Wastes: Impact on Natural Systems and Practical Mitigations—A Review
(Journal of Agricultural Science, 2021)
Dietary composition of aquaculture feeds (aquafeeds) determines the quality of wastes from aquaculture
production systems. These wastes, which are derived mainly from nitrogenous and phosphorus compounds
subsequently ...
Periphyton Technology Enhances Growth Performance and Delays Prolific Breeding of Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758), Juveniles
(Research Gate, 2021)
This study evaluated the effect of periphyton technology (PPT) on the growth performance and breeding schedule of
Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) juveniles. Six ponds, each measuring 81 m2 were used for the study. ...
Effects of aerated and non-aerated biofilters on effluent water treatment from a small-scale recirculating aquaculture system for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.)
(Sciendo, 2020-04-21)
Most recirculation aquaculture systems (RAS) use aerated biofilters to maintain suitable water quality for fish production. However, application of non-aerated biofilters may provide opportunities to lower aeration costs, ...
Aquatic Ecosystem Health & Management
(Michigan State University Press, 2021)
Capture fisheries and aquaculture have remained important sources of food, nutrition, income and
livelihoods to millions globally, with annual per capita consumption of fish in developing countries having
increased from ...
Comparison of net fish yields in pond cultured Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) fed on peanut-based meals as alternatives to dietary fishmeal
(International Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Studies, 2021)
Although net yield directly relates to actual production at harvest, feeding trials aimed at replacing
dietary fishmeal in cultured fish have largely ignored the performance indicator. A 16-week experiment
aimed at ...
State of aquaculture in Kenya 2021 report
(Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute, 2021)
The report deliberated on the steps being taken to boost and increase aquaculture production in the country.
