Research on marine and freshwater fishes
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Most of the fish research at SEAFDEC AQD in 1992-1994 was on milkfish. Studies were conducted on year-round spawning through hormonal or environmental manipulation; optimum lipid and protein levels and ration size for ...
Larviculture of marine fishes at SEAFDEC/AQD
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1993)
The recent glut in the world market for shrimp dealt a heavy blow to the aquaculture industry. It is thus apparent that fish farmers should not depend on only a single species for culture. The popularity and market demand ...
Recent developments in aquaculture in Japan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Aquaculture production in Japan in 1993 was 1,351,000 tons, 15.6% of the total fisheries production. About 93.6% came from mariculture and 6.4% from freshwater aquaculture. The per cent contribution of aquaculture to total ...
Research on marine fishes
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2001)
Research on marine fishes at SEAFDEC/AQD from 1995 to date was mostly on milkfish Chanos chanos. Studies focused on the refinement of broodstock and seed production techniques to improve egg and larval production as well ...
Status and prospects of aquaculture of threatened echinoderms in the Philippines for stock enhancement and restocking
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2006)
Echinoderms are either specifically targeted by gleaners and divers, or form part of the multispecies invertebrate fishery in many coastal areas in the Philippines. The existence of a local sea urchin market in northern ...
Tilapia breeding and seed production for brackishwater culture in the Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Tilapias are important foodfishes in the Philippines second only to milkfish. While farming of tilapias in freshwater ponds and cages is already established, there is a need for wider application of the available technologies ...
Mass larval rearing technology of marine finfish in Japan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
With economic development and increased demand for high price fish, industrial scale marine finfish culture in Japan was started in 1960-1965 for yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata. Sustainable supply of wild juvenile and ...
2010 and beyond: better seeds for sustainable aquatic food production in Asia.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2011)
Asia is a major contributor to world aquaculture production. Most Asian countries have maintained their rank in the ten top aquatic food producing nations after developing refined techniques for major commercially important ...
Successful use of cryopreserved oyster trocophores as a live first feed larval marine fish and invertebrates
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Trochophore-stage larvae of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas were cryopreserved in bulk and stored in liquid nitrogen for periods up to two years before thawing and feeding to a variety of warmwater and coldwater larval ...
Research on seaweeds and mollusks
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1995)
Research on seaweeds focused on the carrageenan-producing Kappaphycus alvarezii and the agar-producing Gracilaria spp. Growth of K. alvarezii was better on horizontal lines than on vertical or cluster lines from bamboo ...
