Genetic Diversity and Population Differentiation of Farmed Nile Tilapia (<i>Oreochromis niloticus</i> Linnaeus, 1758) to Advance Selective Breeding in Uganda

Genetic Diversity and Population Differentiation of Farmed Nile Tilapia (<i>Oreochromis niloticus</i> Linnaeus, 1758) to Advance Selective Breeding in Uganda

Despite the importance of Nile tilapia as a main aquaculture species in Uganda, limited research has been conducted concerning its genetic diversity, particularly in farmed populations. This gap has hindered the development of a systematic breeding program for this species. Successful aquaculture de...
