Effects of dietary l-tryptophan on the agonistic behavior, growth and survival of juvenile mud crab Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2010)
The reduction of the survival of mud crab during culture has been largely attributed to aggressive encounters and cannibalism. In some crustaceans, suppressed aggression is linked to increased concentration of circulating ...
Survival and growth of mud crab, Scylla serrata, juveniles subjected to removal or trimming of chelipeds
(Elsevier, 2011)
The effects of removing or trimming the chelipeds at various molt stages on regeneration, molt interval (MI) and specific growth rate (SGR) were determined in mud crab Scylla serrata. These strategies in combination with ...
Seed production of mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
A protocol for the large-scale rearing of the mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles was developed based on the results of small-scale experiments on feeding and water management. This paper also reports the success in producing ...
Formalin as an alternative to trifluralin as prophylaxis against fungal infection in mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
The toxicity of formalin and trifluralin to the larval stages of the mud crab Scylla serrata was compared in a static bioassay. Prophylactic doses of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 μg L<sup>−1</sup> formalin and 0.05, 0.1, ...
Lipids and fatty acids in wild and pond-reared mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål) during ovarian maturation and spawning
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2007)
Wild-caught and pond-reared female mud crab Scylla serrata at different stages of ovarian maturation were collected from Samar and Capiz, Philippines. Crabs were categorized into five stages according to the external ...
Phenotypic differences between hatchery-reared and wild mud crabs, Scylla Serrata, and the effects of conditioning
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
Hatchery-reared animals for stock enhancement should be competent to survive and grow at rates equivalent to those of wild conspecifics. However, morphological differences are often observed, and pre-conditioning steps may ...
Comparative study on the embryonic development of three mud crabs Scylla spp.
(Blackwell Publishing, 2012)
Morphological changes in the embryos, egg size and development, incubation period and morphological structures of newly hatched zoea of three mud crab Scylla species were determined. The three species exhibited similar ...
Reproductive performance, lipids and fatty acids of mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål) fed dietary lipid levels
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Natural food (NF, control), artificial diets (AD) containing total lipid levels of 10%, 12% and 14% (AD10, AD12 and AD14) and their combinations (AD10+NF, AD12+NF and AD14+NF) were fed for 112 days to pond-sourced ...
Seed production of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Some aspects of the reproductive biology of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus) were investigated to identify suitable techniques for broodstock management and seed production. Likewise, factors such as ablation, water depth and ...
Ontogeny of feeding apparatus and foregut of mud crab Scylla serrata Forsskål larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
The development of the feeding apparatus of the mud crab Scylla serrata larvae was studied using electron microscopy for mandibles and light microscopy for other paired mouthparts and the foregut. The six paired mouthparts, ...
