Mangroves and brackishwater pond culture in the Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 1995)
Around 50% of mangrove loss in the Philippines can be traced to brackishwater pond construction. The decrease in mangroves from 450 000 ha in 1920 to 132 500 ha in 1990 has been accompanied by expansion of culture ponds ...
Preliminary results of feeding aquatic macrophytes to Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Elsevier, 1989)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (PL<sub>50</sub>) were fed live and decaying aquatic macrophytes and a commercial grow-out pellet (40% crude protein) in 80-l glass tanks over a 30-day period. Growth and survival were significantly ...
A review of mangrove rehabilitation in the Philippines: successes, failures and future prospects
(Springer, 2008)
From half a million hectares at the turn of the century, Philippine mangroves have declined to only 120,000 ha while fish/shrimp culture ponds have increased to 232,000 ha. Mangrove replanting programs have thus been ...
Effect of different mangrove-to-pond area ratios on influent water quality and WSSV occurrence in Penaeus monodon semi-intensive farms using the greenwater culture technique
(Elsevier, 2012)
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has been affecting the shrimp industry worldwide for two decades now. It continues to bring economic losses to affected farms. Despite the many studies on its epidemiology, there is no ...
Genetic diversity of wild and cultured black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) in the Philippines using microsatellites
(Elsevier, 2001)
Six microsatellites were used to study (1) the genetic diversity of wild <i>Penaeus monodon</i> shrimp from four geographic regions (Palawan, Quezon, Capiz and Negros Occidental-W) in the Philippines, and (2) its association ...
