Production of YY-male of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) from atypical fish

Successful YY technology depends on the production of XY females. However, their identification is complicated because they are indistinguishable from normal females. Atypical fish could offer an alternative for a more rapid and precise identification. Progeny of atypical fish was evaluated in order...
