Larval growth and survival optima for four species of penaeids from Australia, as indicated by their distribution and abundance in the field
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Prawn catches from tropical northern Australia are dominated by four species of prawns: Penaeus merguiensis, P. semisulcatus, P. esculentus and P. latisulcatus. Three of the species (P. merguiensis, P. semisulcatus and P. ...
Growth and productivity of juvenile banana prawns, Penaeus merguiensis in natural and laboratory systems
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Growth and survival of Penaeus merguiensis juveniles were measured over four years in the Norman River estuary, south-eastern Gulf of Carpentaria. Growth in carapace length for the first 8-9 weeks after settlement was ...
Factors affecting maturation and spawning of Penaeus esculentus in the laboratory
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Adult tiger prawns Penaeus esculentus were held in laboratory tanks under varying conditions of tank size, density, temperature and photoperiod for assessment of ovarian maturation and spawning. Both eyestalk ablated and ...
Studies on the artificial insemination and fertilization of grass shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The culture of grass shrimp, Penaeus monodon has become a fast-growing enterprise in Taiwan since formulated shrimp feed was successfully developed in 1978. In 1983, the total postlarval production for stocking reached 600 ...
Culture of blue shrimp, Penaeus stylirostris in Sonora, Mexico
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The Centro de Investigaciones Cientificas y Tecnologicas de la Universidad de Sonora has been conducting research on the culture of the blue shrimp Penaeus stylirostris since 1972. Most of the programs carried out are ...
Induction to ovary maturation by ablation in the pink shrimp Penaeus notialis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
A partial unilateral ablation was carried out on immature females of the pink shrimp Penaeus notialis. They were maintained in 1,600 ℓ asbestos-cement tanks together with apparently mature males, not submitted to ...
Description of the embryonic stages of Penaeus notialis and the influence of some abiotic factors on the species
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The embryonic development of the shrimp Penaeus notialis Farfante, 1967 is studied. The duration from spawning to hatching of the nauplii was 14-16 hr. As soon as spawning occurs, a sequence of transformations is observed ...
Thermal tolerance of larval greentail prawn Metapenaeus bennettae (Raced and Dall) a comparison with school prawn Metapenaeus macleayi
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The thermal tolerance of four larval stages of Metapenaeus bennettae was studied in the laboratory. Critical Thermal Maximum (CTM), One hour Median Lethal Temperature (lhLT50), and Median Resistance Time (MRT) were measured. ...
Effect of various levels of squid protein on growth and some biochemical parameters of Penaeus japonicus juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
An unknown growth factor previously suspected in squid meal was found in the protein fraction of squid (Loligo vulgaris). It is clearly different from hydro-alcohol-soluble feed attractants that are also present in squid ...
A preliminary economic analysis for extensive and semi-intensive shrimp culture in South Carolina, U.S.A.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
South Carolina has some 28,500 ha of impounded coastal wetlands. These impoundments are remnants of the rice culture industry of the 19th century and are now of interest for waterflow management and possibly aquaculture. ...
