Intensive prawn farming in the Philippines: ecological, social, and economic implications
(Springer Verlag, 1991)
The benefits of intensive farming of the giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon in the Philippines are discussed in relation to the environmental costs. Ecological effects include mangrove conversion into ponds; use of antibiotics ...
Large scale hatchery production of Penaeus monodon using natural food and artificial diets
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Natural food in combination with either SEAFDEC formulated or other commercial larvae diets was tested for large scale production of Penaeus monodon postlarvae. Two trials of 3 treatments each, 2 replications of each ...
Economic feasibility of polyculture of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) with Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in brackishwater ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1991)
The polyculture of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) with milkfish (Chanos chanos) has been practiced in the Philippines, bit little is known about the possible polyculture of the shrimp with the tilapias in spite of increasing ...
Occurrence and pathology of Penaeus monodon baculovirus infection in hatcheries and ponds in the Philippines
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Samples from Penaeus monodon hatcheries (2-3 day old larvae or Zoea 1 to 34 day old post larvae or PL<sub>34</sub>) and ponds (15 to 159 days old in the pond) were histologically examined for the presence of eosinophilic ...
Influence of stocking density and fertilization regime on growth, survival and gross production of Penaeus monodon Fabricius in brackishwater ponds
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Twelve 0.1 ha earthen ponds were stocked at 3,500 or 7,000/ha with 1-month old nursery reared Penaeus monodon Fabricius (1.73 g). Fertilizer treatments were 125 kg chicken manure plus 4.1 kg diammonium phosphate (18-46-0) ...
Performance of recirculating systems for prawn hatchery and broodstock maturation tanks
(Elsevier, 1991)
The potential use of recirculating systems with facilities for waste removal for prawn (Penaeus monodon) hatchery and broodstock maturation tanks was investigated. Recirculating systems evaluated for larval culture tanks ...
Effects of unilateral eyestalk ablation on ovarian histology and oocyte size frequency of wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) broodstock
(Elsevier, 1991)
Effects of eyestalk ablation on ovarian maturation of wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon were determined to compare their reproductive potential. This was done by counting the oocyte size frequency in four regions of the ...
Effects of Gusathion A on the survival and shell quality of juvenile Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 1991)
Juvenile Penaeus monodon (body weight=10–20 g) were exposed to a commonly used organophosphate pesticide, Gusathion A, in ponds for 96 h. Prawns exposed to 1.5–150 ppb Gusathion A had 27–53% shell softening, with a 96 h ...
Effects of unilateral eyestalk ablation on growth and reproductive parameters in wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) broodstock
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1991)
Effects of unilateral eyestalk ablation on wild and pond-reared Penaeus monodon during ovarian maturation were determined by examining the growth (e.g., carapace length, body length, body weight) and reproductive (e.g., ...
Effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of some leguminous seeds as protein sources for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, juveniles
(Elsevier, 1991)
Feeding experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of cowpea and rice bean as protein sources for P. monodon juveniles. Diets were prepared by adding legumes to replace 15.6% of ...
