Fate and effects of water-borne heavy metals in Penaeus monodon
(European Aquaculture Society, 1991)
Heavy metals impair the aquaculture of shrimps and the quality of shrimp products. Some heavy metals occur in high amounts particularly in the hepatopancreas and the antennal gland (Gibson and Barker, 1979). This study was ...
Development of hatchery techniques for the mud crab Scylla serrata (Forskål): Comparison of feeding schemes
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
Scylla serrata larvae were reared in 3 L plastic containers and fed various amounts of artificial diets (AD) with or without natural food (NF: Brachionus rotundiformis and newly-hatched Artemia). The amounts of AD fed alone ...
Larval survival and megalopa production of Scylla sp. at different salinities
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
Salinity tolerance was determined for each zoeal stage of Scylla sp. Larvae from ablated pond-grown females were abruptly transferred to salinities of 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32 ppt. Spawning salinity or previous rearing ...
Reproductive performance of pond-sourced Scylla serrata fed various broodstock diets
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
Feeding experiments were conducted to determine the effect of diet on reproduction of pond-sourced unablated and ablated Scylla serrrata broodstock. Broodstock were fed either natural food (T1) consisting of mussel, squid, ...
Isolation and characterization of vitellin from the ovary of Penaeus monodon
(International Society of Invertebrate Reproduction and Development, 1990)
Female-specific protein (FSP, vitellogenin) in Penaeus monodon hemolymph and its related ovarian protein (vitellin, lipovitellin) were identified and characterized using electrophoretical and immunological procedures. The ...
Changes in the steroid hormone and vitellogenin levels during the gametogenic cycle of the giant tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 1994)
The levels of estradiol-17β, and progesterone in the hemolymph, ovaries and hepatopancreas, in relation to the vitellogenin levels of captive female Penaeus monodon, were determined during the gametogenic cycle. Estradiol ...
Accumulation and excretion of metal granules in the prawn, Penaeus monodon, exposed to water-borne copper, lead, iron and calcium
(Elsevier, 1994)
Juveniles of the giant tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, were exposed for 10 days to 1 mg/l copper, lead, iron or calcium in order to investigate the formation and accumulation of metal granules in major soft tissues as well ...
Ovarian changes and female-specific protein levels during sexual maturation of the white shrimp Penaeus indicus
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
The histological changes in the ovary and female-specific protein levels in the hemolymph during sexual maturation of Penaeus indicus were determined. Ovarian maturation was classified into four stages: immature stage, ...
Ovarian development in relation to changes in the external genitalia in captive Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 1993)
Hatchery-reared Penaeus monodon postlarvae were cultured in ponds until they attained adult size. Thereafter, the shrimps were transferred to concrete broodstock tanks for maturation. During the culture period, the ...
Profiles of progesterone- and estradiol-like substances in the hemolymph of female Pandalus kessleri during an annual reproductive cycle
(Elsevier, 1991)
The changes in GSI and HSI of Pandalus kessleri were monitored during an annual reproductive cycle. GSI reached a peak when ovaries were composed of yolky oocytes and decreased sharply during the spawning season. HSI ...
