Microbiome dynamics in tank- and pond-reared Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia (GIFT)
These results establish valuable baseline information on the types of bacteria associated with healthy, genetically defined (GIFT) tilapia strains. This foundational information will help identify specific microbial taxa associated with beneficial or detrimental effects on tilapia health and productivity across varying rearing conditions. Such insights can guide the development of practical microbiome monitoring strategies, such as early-warning tools for farm health, and inform targeted interventions to improve aquaculture performance.
