Characterization of the morphology of the three strains of oreochromis macrochir (boulenger, 1912) in Zambia
The study was conducted at Misamfu Aquaculture Research Station in Zambia to evaluate the morphology of three Oreochromis macrochir populations from Chambeshi, Kafue and Luapula rivers for recommendation to the species genetic improvement programme, as a prerequisite before a genetic improvement programme is undertaken. Body measurements were collected on 20 adult specimens of each population to study morphological differences among the three strains.
