Tilapia represent an important commercial fish for aquaculture. The sterilization of this
species is expected to not only promote efficient cultivation and improve flesh quality, but …

High temperature treatments induce germ cell loss in gonads of vertebrate animals,
including fish. It could be a reliable source for induction of sterility if the treatments led to a …

Nile tilapia is globally one of the most important food fish in aquaculture. It is a gonochoric
species showing an enormous plasticity in sex determination. In response to exposure of …

Introduction In order to clarify the effect of extremely high temperature on gonads of fish,
juveniles of the Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus, at three days after hatching …

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a kind of GSD+ TE (genotypic sex determination with
temperature effects) fish. It is known that in some reptiles with temperature dependent sex …

The present study aims to evaluate the effects of triploidy induction by temperature-shocks
(heat shock at 41° C for 5min and cold shock at 9° C for 30min of duration, starting 4min after …

Triploidy induction has been opted as an effective management tool in tilapia fish culture in
the past. At present scenario, the production of tilapia monosex population through hormone …

Nile tilapia has proven to be sensitive to change phenotypic sex upon exposure to steroid
hormone and high temperature during the critical period of gonad differentiation. It is more …

In teleosts, elevated temperature during embryogenesis can act on germline cell
development, which in turn plays a role for sexual fate. In Nile tilapia, a species with high …

Triploid induction offers a way of considerably reducing fertility in fish, and could therefore
be employed to help ensure that any adverse environmental impact of transgenic fish was …
