- A systematic literature review of the major factors causing yield gap by affecting growth, feed conversion ratio and survival in Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) (2020, background): “Eknath et al. (2007) found high genetic correlations (0.76 0.99) among different pond environments and medium to high genetic correlation (0.36 0.82) between pond and cage environments.”
- Tilapia – An Excellent Candidate Species for World Aquaculture: A Review (2019, background): “Consequently, it was decided to form a synthetic population composed of three and four way crossed individuals involving all eight founder strains, and genetic parameters for growth performance in seven different farming environments were estimated [29].”
- Fish to 2030: The Role and Opportunity for Aquaculture (2015, background): “Since the introduction of genetically improved tilapia in Asia in the 1990s, many countries around the globe, including China, currently have ongoing tilapia genetic improvement programs (Dey, 2000; ADB, 2005; Eknath et al., 2007; Gjedrem, Robinson & Rye, 2012).”
- Quality evaluation of tray-packed tilapia fillets stored at 0°C based on sensory, microbiological, biochemical and physical attributes (2010, background): “…improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) strain of oreochromis niloticus introduced from the world fish center (ICLARM -International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management) exhibited higher growth performance and salinity tolerance than any other Nile tilapia strains (Eknath et al., 2007).”
- Genetic improvement of farmed tilapias: Genetic parameters for body weight at harvest in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) during five generations of testing in multiple environments (2012, methodology): “The within test-environment heritability estimates agree well with estimates from the base population (Eknath et al., 2007) and from other tilapia studies based on similar data (0.”
