Gonadal and reproductive patterns in Tilapia leucosticta (Teleostei: Cichlidae) in an equatorial lake, Lake Naivasha (Kenya)
(University of Nairobi, 2009-08)The cichlid fish T. leucosticta (Trewavas) was studied by fortnightly seining an area of an equatorial lake (Lake Naivasha) in Kenya to study their reproductive and gonadal patterns. The study lasted 16 months during which ... -
Gonadal Development And Reproductive Activity Of The Cichlid Fish Tilapia Leucosticta (trewavas) In An Equatorial Lake
(University of Nairobi, 1969)THE most important external factors that influence gonadal development and reproductive activity are day length and temperature1. In temperate zones both factors show dramatic changes in the annual cycle. In the tropics, ... -
Gonotrophic cycle duration, fecundity and mating behavior of Anopheles gambiae complex mosquitoes in a dryland ecosystem in Baringo, Kenya
(2014)An entomological longitudinal survey was carried out over a 22 month period in two semi-arid villages in Baringo District in Kenya to study how adult malaria vectors survive under semi-arid conditions and during extended ... -
