Length-frequency data collected from fish landings on Lake Naivasha were used to estimate the growth parameters: total mortality (Z), growth performance index (¢'), exploitation rate and recruitment pattern in Oreochromis ...

Studies were conducted in Lake Baringo between May 1994 and April 1995 to map temporal changes in productivity (phytoplankton standing stock) and attempt to relate these changes to environmental parameters in this ...

Fish landing data collected by the Kenyan Fisheries Department from the nearshore coastal marine waters from 1985 to 1994 were statistically analyzed to determine trends in the traditional fisher's catch. Over the ten year ...

The fisheries resources of Lake George and Ugandan waters of Lake Edward are described. The main fish species currently observed in the commercial catches were determined and the reasons of changes in species composition ...

To verify that increments observed in the otoliths of R. argentea were deposited daily, fish were immersed in tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) of 100 - 600 mg V between 2-24 hours. TC was found to be incorporated within ...

Over 90% of Kenya's fish is produced from Lake Victoria, its principle source of fish for domestic consumption and for export. The three fish species of most economic importance are Lates niloticus, Rastrineobola argentea ...

HaematologicaI values other than mean cell haemoglobin concentration, were consistently higher in the male Protopterus annectens(O) than the female. These all showed significant linear correlation with weight at 5% level ...

Under modern conditions of product competition, it is increasingly risky not to innovate and, at the same time, it is extremely expensive to do. Consumers always want a stream of new and improved products. Competition ...

The effects of tagging with Floy FD-68B T-bar anchor tags on estimates of growth in Tilapia (Oreochromis shiranus chilwaei were investigated in a pond and in a field experiment. In the pond experiment, mean length increments ...
