Relationships among ration, salinity, 17alpha-methyltestosterone and growth in the euryhaline tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus

The effects of long-term 17alpha-methyltestosterone (MT) treatment and ration size on the growth of the euryhaline tilapia in fresh water (FW) and seawater (SW) were examined. The reduction to routine metabolism in tilapia in SW may account for the increase in growth of the SW animals over their FW...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of long-term 17alpha-methyltestosterone (MT) treatment and ration size on the growth of the euryhaline tilapia in fresh water (FW) and seawater (SW) were examined. The reduction to routine metabolism in tilapia in SW may account for the increase in growth of the SW animals over their FW counterparts.
