    Notes: Abstract. The effect of stocking density on growth and survival of Oreochromis niloticus (L.) fry was evaluated. O. niloticus fry (average weight, 10·56 ± 0·28mg and average length. 9·09 ± 0·05nim) were stocked in 2–1 tanks at 2, 5, 10, 15 and 20 fry/1 and reared for 33 days post fertilization, at 30°C (±1°C). Mean lengths, mean weights, and specific growth rates were found to be significantly lower (P 〈 0·05) at the higher stocking densities. The coefficient of variation for the five stocking densities was significantly (P 〈 0·05) different. Condition factors, however, were not significantly (P 〈 0·05) different and survival was high at all density treatments. These data suggest that the culture of O. niloticus is feasible at the density groups tested but 5–10fry/I is recommended for fry culture in the hatchery, if a more uniform size is desired.

    Notes: Abstract. This paper reports a series of trials on the cryopreservation of Oreochromis niloticus (L.) spermatozoa, using methanol as the cryoprotectant.Immotile milt samples pooled from four males were diluted with two diluents, each being subjected to equilibration periods of 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 min. In addition, samples of fresh pooled milt were kept for 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 days at 4°C prior to cryopreservation. Diluted samples were stored in 250-μl plastic straws and cooled to -50°C at 5°C/min and held under liquid nitrogen for between 1 and 3 weeks. Viability of post-thawed spermatozoa was estimated from video recordings of samples activated under a microscope and from fertilization rates of eggs.The type of diluent and its interaction with equilibration time significantly (P〈 0.05) influenced the post-thaw motility of spermatozoa. Spermatozoa stored for up to 6 days prior to cryopreservation were as fertile as freshly frozen spermatozoa and yielded 60.6 (±SE, 8.4) developing embryos.

    Notes: Abstract. Conical and round-bottomed incubating containers were evaluated for efficiency in producing Oreochromis fry. For Orcochromis niloticus (L.) and Oreochromis mossambicus (Peters): 0-, 12-, 24-, 48- and 72-h-old egg clutches were artificially incubated at 28°C in conical and round-bottomed containers. Hatching occurred within 72–84h and 90–102h after fertilization respectively compared to 96–120h for naturally incubated egg clutches. No significant differences (P 〉 0·05) were found between the hatch and survival rates of O. niloticus and O. mossambicus fry or between fry from the various ages of eggs. The type of containers, however, significantly (P 〈 0·05) influenced the hatchability and survival rates, the overall survival rate from fertilization being 60% and 85% for conical and round-bottomed containers respectively. Possible reasons for these differences are discussed. The feasibility of using the superior round-bottomed containers for artificial egg and fry incubation and the advantages for broodstock management to mass produce Oreochromis fry are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Androgenesis is a potentially valuable technique for recovering fish from gene banks composed of cryopreserved sperm, developing inbred lines, and analyzing patterns of inheritance. The procedure for producing diploid organisms whose nuclear DNA is wholly of paternal origin is dependent on: (1) the denucleation of “host” eggs, and (2) the inhibition of the first mitotic division in order to double the haploid sperm chromosome complement following fertilization of host eggs. Denucleation of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) eggs was carried out using UV irradiation. Treatment durations of 5–8 min (total dose of 450–720 J/m2) produced acceptable yields of viable denucleated eggs [22.9±1.6% (±SE) of controls] as estimated by the survival of haploid androgenetic tilapia to 48 h post-fertilization. Successful mitotic inhibition was accomplished using a heat-shock of 42.5 °C for 3–4 min, applied at 2.5-min intervals from 22.5 to 30 min post-fertilization (mpf). The mean survival of androgenetic diploid fish to yolk-sac absorption for treatment groups varied from 0.4% to 5.3%, relative to the controls. Differences in the suceptibility of eggs from different females to UV irradiation were a significant factor in the overall yield of androgenetic diploids. Paternal effects did not significantly influence the androgenetic yield, suggesting that individual males would not be selected against. For comparative purposes mitotic gynogenetic “mitogyne” diploids were produced from UV-irradiated sperm. Mean survival to yolk-sac absorption varied from 0.5% to 10.64%, relative to controls. Similar optima for androgenetic and gynogenetic induction were found in the period 25–27.5 mpf (minutes post-fertilization). Induction treatments would appear to be operating on the same developmental events in both these techniques, and the results suggest that the UV irradiations used do relatively little damage to the eggs beyond nuclear inactivation. The results indicate that the production of androgenetic O. niloticus is possible on a consistent basis and that the application of this technique may be useful in quantitative and conservation genetics.
