Tilapia, carp and catfish
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1994)
Research activities on tilapia focused on Oreochromis niloticus and red tilapia. Experiments include developing new experimental and statistical procedures for strain evaluation, development of a stable reference strain, ...
Milkfish, rabbitfish and mullet
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1994)
This paper reviews studies conducted on milkfish (Chanos chanos), rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus), and mullet (Mugil cephalus) at the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department from 1968 to 1991. Milkfish studies focused on hormonal ...
Recent trends in fish diseases in Japan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Losses of cultured marine and freshwater fishes due to diseases averaged about 20,000 tons each year or 6% of the aquaculture production in Japan in 1980-1991. During this last decade, bacterial diseases have been responsible ...
Aquaculture in the Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Aquaculture is regarded as the most promising source of protein food in the years ahead. Milkfish and Nile tilapia are the major fishes now produced but groupers, sea bass, rabbitfish, red snappers, carps, and catfishes ...
Aquaculture in Indonesia
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Indonesia has a long tradition in aquaculture, particularly in fresh water and brackish water. Most aquaculture is still in extensive systems with low productivity. Mariculture only started in the 1980s and contributes yet ...
Feed quality problems and management strategies
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Feed is the single most important input in increasing aquaculture production and profits. Success or failure in augmenting yield with feeding depends, to a large extent, on the quality of the diet. Feed quality, generally ...
Artificial incubation for intensive fry production of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate and compare the production, quality, and survival of eggs and the subsequent growth and survival of fry in two small scale production systems: (i) natural incubation (NI), and ...
Coastal aquaculture in Thailand
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1994)
The coastal area has been explored for aquaculture and coastal aquaculture has expanded quite rapidly in Thailand. The economically important culture species are shrimp (Penaeus monodon), sea bass (Lates calcarifer), and ...
Overview of seafarming and searanching technology in Japan

In 1989, artificial seed production was attained in 37 species of fishes, 16 species of Crustacea, 25 species of shellfishes, and 9 species of other fishery animals in Japan. Eighty species of fishery animal seed, including ...
Transgenic fish and aquaculture
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Transgenic fish species can be routinely produced by transferring foreign DNA into developing embryos via microinjection or electroporation. This technology offers an excellent opportunity for modifying or improving the ...
