CULTURE OF DIPLOID AND TRIPLOID OF (HETEROBRANCHUS BIDORSALIS AND CLARIS GARIEPINUS) FED WITH DAPHNIA

PROJECT BODY: ABSTRACT This research work was carried out to examine the effect of cold and warm shock on hybridized fish order of Siluriformes (Heterobranchus bidorsalis and Clarias gariepinus) in indoor tanks crossing of two different species is a process called hybridization, with the offspring known as the hybrids. The length of the cold shock, warm shock

FISH ABUNDANCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF THREE WATER BODIES

PROJECT BODY: ABSTRACT Fish abundance and distribution of three water bodies namely Onah lake, Anwai river and River Niger at cable point was studied. Fish specimens were collected using gill nets, traps, and hook and line  between July-December, 2013.. One thousand four hundred and eighty seven fish specimens were collected and brought to the laboratory

A STUDY ON CONSUMERS ACCEPTABILIY ON FRESH AND SMOKED CATFISH IN AWKA, ANAMBRA STATE.

PROJECT BODY: Fish is a major source of food for humans, providing significant portion of the protein intake in the diet of large proportion of the people, particularly so in developing countries. Fish is less tough and more digestible compared to beef, chicken and mutton. Moreover, has little or no religious rejection that gives it

CHALLENGES OF WOMEN INVOLVED IN AQUACULTURE ACTIVITIES (A CASE STUDY OF OTUOCHA, ANAMBRA EAST LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA ANAMBRA STATE)

CHAPTER ONE Introduction   1.1 Background of the study Aquaculture can be considered as the aquatic complement to agriculture. Specifically, it is the husbandry of fish and/or other aquatic species in a controlled environment (Bardach et al., 1972; Lovell, 1979; Shell, 1983; Lindsay, 1985; Molnar et al., 1987). Molnar reported that the world catch of fish

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF FOUR COMMERCIAL FISH FEEDS IN THE PRODUCTION OF AFRICAN CATFISH (CLARIAS GARIEPINUS).

PROJECT BODY: With global population expansion, the demand for high quality animal protein is rising dramatically (Yisa et al., 2006). Increased aquaculture production is clearly needed to meet this demand, because capture fisheries are showing serious decline due to over fishing, aquatic habitat destruction and pollution (FAO, 2004). World capture fisheries have been in a stable

IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE

PROJECT BODY: ABSTRACT This study examines the major effects of climate change on Fisheries and Aquaculture. Factors responsible for climate change which include burning of fuel, oil, coal, gas, deforestation among others cause the emission of green house gases (carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane and nitrous oxide) into the atmosphere with resultant global warming leading

THE POTENTIALS OF AQUACULTURE DEVELOPMENT IN FISHING COMMUNITIES OF ANAMBRA STATE (A CASE STUDY OF ANAKU COMMUNITY, AYAMELUM)

PROJECT BODY: Aquaculture continues to grow rapidly every day, and then became bigger and bigger industry every year. So understanding the basic part behind aquatic production facilities is of increasing importance for all those working in this industry. Aquaculture requires knowledge and skills of the many general aspects of production such as spawning, production of

THE IDENTIFICATION OF PREVALENCE MICROBES ASSOCIATED WITH FROZEN FISH MARKETED IN OWERRI METROPOLIS

PROJECT BODY: Abstract   Aquaculture products can harbour pathogenic bacteria, which are of the natural micro-flora of the environment. An in-vitro assay was carried out to ascertain and identify major bacterial contaminants of frozen fish, which had constituted an important dietary intake of the people of Owerri, Nigeria. Fish samples collected were identified and bacterial load
