Differences in sexual size dimorphism among farmed tilapia species and strains undergoing genetic improvement for body weight
Many tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) farmers produce all-male populations because of the superior growth rate of males compared to females. To investigate differences in body weight at harvest of males and females among different tilapia strains, we analyzed data from 62,787 individuals collected from pe...
