“…Polymorphisms in the prolactin 1 ( prl 1 ) promoter were associated with differences in prl 1 gene expression and growth performance in salinity‐stressed hybrid tilapia generated with O. mossambicus and O. niloticus 135 . This association was confirmed in several F 2 families of hybrids generated by crossing O. mossambicus with O. niloticus 136 . However, there was no association in several other families, suggesting that this polymorphism may not be the causative polymorphism for salinity‐tolerance, and that salinity‐tolerance is a complex trait which is determined by many genes, environmental factors and their interactions.…”

“…135 This association was confirmed in several F 2 families of hybrids generated by crossing O. mossambicus with O. niloticus. 136 However, there was no association in several other families, suggesting that this polymorphism may not be the causative polymorphism for salinity-tolerance, and that salinity-tolerance is a complex trait which is determined by many genes, environmental factors and their interactions. A study on the sequence of the transferrin gene and its expression under salinity stress found that transferrin is involved in the salinity tolerance of O. niloticus.…”

Aquaculture is an important sector for ensuring global food security. Due to the scarcity of freshwater available for expanding aquaculture, the development of omnivorous fish species and varieties that can tolerate high salinity will enhance fish production. Some tilapia species are good candidates for aquaculture in brackish and seawater because they can grow in high salinity. Among tilapia species, Oreochromis mossambicus, Oreochromis aureus, Oreochromis spilurus, Oreochromis urolepis hornorum, Sarotherodon galilaeus and Coptodon zillii are the most salinity‐tolerant. Hybrids derived from salinity‐tolerant tilapia species are tolerant to a certain level of salinity. They have been used in aquaculture production in brackish water and full seawater. Conventional selective breeding has been applied to increase the growth rate of salinity‐tolerant tilapias. However, their growth rate is lower than that of the freshwater Oreochromis niloticus. Recently, many genomic resources and tools have been developed for salinity‐tolerant tilapia. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) for important economic traits, including salinity tolerance and other desired traits, have been carried out and applied in molecular breeding for superior salinity‐tolerant tilapia lines. In this review, we systematically analysed tilapia species that can be cultured in brackish and saltwater. We summarized previous works in conventional breeding and molecular breeding for salinity‐tolerant tilapia. We pointed out a few known and potential challenges in the selective breeding and culture of salinity‐tolerant tilapia. Due to the rapid advances in molecular and other disruptive technologies, we are optimistic that novel breeding approaches will significantly increase the production salinity‐tolerant tilapia.

Of all the mineral cations, potassium (K) is an essential nutrient for animals, and it is the third most common mineral in the body. Potassium has a role in maintaining normal cardiac and renal function, neuronal transmission, muscular contraction, and acid-base balance. The main thrust of this chapter is to review the physiology, pathology, pharmacology, occurrence, etiology, clinical signs of hypokalemia and its diagnostic and therapeutic approach in cows. The ambulatory measures to minimize the agony and preventive strategies to reduce the incidence of hypokalemia were discussed. Beside the potassium salt therapy, the inclusion of Taurine in the therapeutic regime was rational and to be appreciated.
