Reproductive and Phenotypic Indices among the Haplotypes of Clarias gariepinus (Buchell, 1822) From Rivers Benue and Donga, Nigeria
The study on reproductive and phenotypic indices of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) haplotype from
Rivers Benue and Donga, Nigeria was carried out from February - May 2021, to evaluate phenotypic and production indices
among the genetic groups of African catfish (C. gariepinus). Sixty (60) matured samples of C. gariepinus of different sizes
were bought from artisanal fisherfolks. Fish samples were utilised for the molecular analysis and also were assessed for
reproductive and phenotypic indices in the genotypes.
