Proceedings of a 1979 conference held jointly in Manila by ICLARM and the Southeast Asian Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture. The conference sought to provide an overview of integrated agriculture-aquaculture farming systems currently practised in Southeast Asian...

Tilapia culture in Asia and other non African countries is practiced on a narrow genetic base. In contrast, African countries, many of which need assistance to develop their own aquaculture sectors, hold the global wealth of tilapia genetic resources. These resources have yet to be tapped to...

A summary report of the 15 major sessions û Biology, Physiology and Culture - of the conference which brought together 19 eminent tilapia biologists and experimental culturists from 10 countries.

Tilapias, because of the low cost and relative ease of their production, are a potential food fish staple for many people ini tropical countries and a globally traded commodity. This volume of symposium proceedings shows a strong interest in production systems research and a dawning interest in...

Naturally occurring fish genetic resources are of great importance for fisheries and aquaculture. Fish farmers and fishers face a future in which the diversity of their basic resources is under threat and the genetic composition of these resources will be increasingly reliant on human protection...

A summary report of the workshop held at the Freshwater Aquaculture Center, Central Luzon State University, Nueva Ecija, Philippines, on 9-10 November 1989. It discusses the effects wrought by the golden snail since its introduction to the Philippines, particularly on rice farming systems. Ways...

Contains 15 reviews on the environmental impact of aquaculture including inland and coastal ecosystems, integration of agriculture and aquaculture, shrimp culture, antibiotics and other trace environmental contaminants, toxic algal blooms, socioeconomic aspects and regional overviews for Africa,...

Proceedings of the 1985 Bellagio Conference on Detrital Systems for Aquaculture held in Bellagio, Como, Italy, to analyze and summarize available information on detrital food chains and the means for their manipulation in aquaculture. Contains 16 papers and related discussions.

A summary report of the proceedings of the Asian regional conference on carp hatchery and nursery technology held in Manila, Philippines, on 1-3 February 1984, sponsored by the Asian Development Bank and ICLARM.

This publication is both a manual for the biochemical analysis of several tissues of tilapias and an empirical demonstration of the methods for several species. Given the great and growing importance of tilapia in aquaculture and the importance of knowing the genetic composition of broodstock,...
