Resumo: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of individual selection for body weight on morphometric characteristics of the Nile tilapia, Gift-Epagri strain, and as well as to determine the phenotypic correlations of these measurements. We used 325 males and 272 females derived from seven different populations of the breeding program. The following morphometric characteristics were measured: body weight (BW), total length (TL), standard length (SL), corrected length (CL), head length (HL), body height (BH) and body width (BW). Thereafter, the data were used to determine the following ratios: Fulton condition factor (FC), HL/SL, BH/SL, BW/SL and CL/SL. Fish selected for body weight showed greater FC and BH/SL compared to unselected fish. In addition, all correlations between variables were high (above 0.70), indicating that the selection of individuals with higher body weight may provide indirect gains in other desirable characteristics.

Foram utilizados 325 machos e 272 fêmeas, derivados de sete diferentes populações do programa de melhoramento. De cada indivíduo foram avaliados os seguintes parâmetros: peso corporal (PC), comprimento total (CT), comprimento padrão (CP), comprimento do tronco (CTr), comprimento da cabeça (CC), altura corporal (AC) e largura corporal (LC). Posteriormente, foram determinadas as seguintes relações: fator de condição de Fulton (FC), CC/CP, AC/CP, LC/CP e CTr/CP. Os indivíduos selecionados para peso corporal das diferentes populações apresentaram maior FC e AC/CP, em relação aos indivíduos não selecionados. Além disso, todas as correlações entre as variáveis analisadas foram altas (acima de 0,70), indicando que na seleção dos indivíduos com maior peso há boa possibilidade de haver ganhos indiretos para outras características desejáveis. Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina - Epagri2018-10-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/213Agropecuária Catarinense Journal; Vol. 31 No. 3 (2018); 38-40Agropecuária Catarinense; v. 31 n. 3 (2018); 38-402525-60760103-0779reponame:Agropecuária Catarinense (Online)instname:Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)instacron:EPAGRIenghttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/213/251Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Agropecuária Catarinensehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Bruno CorrêaMarchiori, Natália da CostaSilva, Fabiano Muller2018-10-24T17:34:03Zoai:ojs.publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br:article/213Revistahttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/RAC/indexPUBhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/index.php/RAC/oaieditoriarac@epagri.sc.gov.br || lamperuch@epagri.sc.gov.br2525-60760103-0779opendoar:2018-10-24T17:34:03Agropecuária Catarinense (Online) - Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)false
