The aquaculture sector is significantly behind plant and farm animal production in applying
selective breeding, in spite of the fact that it has been suggested that the world aquaculture …

The ability to fully control sexual maturation and spawning and to produce large numbers of
high quality seeds 'on demand'(ie all year long) is a primary requirement for the successful …

Carp viscera oil can be obtained by both ensilage and fishmeal processes. This study
examined the refinement of carp (Cyprinus carpio) oils obtained by both processes, and …

Cyprinids are the most important group of farmed fish globally in terms of production volume,

In this study, for the first time on gilthead seabream (Sparus auratus L.), genetic parameters
for growth and carcass traits were estimated at 509 days (harvest size), and for growth only …

The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters and heterosis for weight, length
and survival traits for common carp measured at different time periods at commercial farm …

Background The study evaluated genetic progress of a breeding program for common carp
undergoing four generations of selection for increased harvest body weight from 2004 to …

The Pacific white shrimp is one of the most important species in the aquaculture industry
worldwide, and the growth is regarded as primary trait for selective breeding programmes. In …
