Behavioural response, welfare, and performance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) under different water temperatures
This work was carried out to detect behavioural response, performance and welfare of Nile tilapia fingerlings under different water temperatures. Fingerlings were reared in eight 90-L aquaria in duplicate for 60 days with 15 fish per aquarium at different temperatures (20 °C (group1), 24 °C (group 2), 28 °C (group 3), and 32 °C (group […]
The effect of temperature on mate preferences and female-female interactions in Syngnathus abaster
Despite much effort to ascertain the consequences of temperature variation for a wide range of animal performance traits, the effect of temperature on interactions among organisms is still poorly understood. The present work tests for a direct influence of water temperature on sexual recognition, mate preferences and female-female interactions in the pipefish, Syngnathus abaster. Three […]
