Abstract:In archipelagic countries, aquaculture of tilapia is commonly affected by variable and fluctuating salinities associated with tidal flow, salt water intrusions, rainfall and season which can cause stress to the species and affects the overall production. In the present study, the effect of salinity exposure on stress response and amino catabolic enzymes of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus was investigated. Seventy two Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (size: 44.57±0.48 g) were distributed to 6 units of 60 L… Show more
