Culture of finfish in netcages
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
This report consists of two parts, the first deals on the cage culture of grouper, and the second on cage culture of tilapia. The culture of groupers is done in netcages set in marine waters, while tilapia is raised in ...
The economics and marketing of cage-raised finfish and pen-raised mudcrab
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
As part of the technology verification exercise for technologies developed through research, the economics and marketing aspects were investigated before such technologies can be extended to industry practitioners. These ...
Effect of different sizes of saline red tilapia hybrid Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus x O. mossambicus Peters on the growth of luminous bacteria Vibrio harveyi
(College of Agriculture, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2010)
Luminous bacterial disease caused by Vibrio harveyi has devasted the shrimp industry. The use of different strains of tilapia and other fish species polycultured with shrimp cultured at a salinity of 24 ppt to control ...
Enrichment potential of HUFA-rich thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei for the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis
(Elsevier, 2009)
An enrichment experiment was performed to evaluate the changes in lipid and essential fatty acid contents of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis fed with freeze-dried cells of tropical thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei ...
Polyculture of green mussels, brown mussels and oysters with shrimp control luminous bacterial disease in a simulated culture system
(Elsevier, 2007)
Shrimp mortality due to luminous bacteria has been a problem of the shrimp industry worldwide. Polyculture of shrimp with finfish, such as grouper, seabass, snapper, siganid, Tilapia hornorum, and the Genetically Improved ...
The effect of thyroxine on the larvae and fry of Sarotherodon niloticus L. (Tilapia nilotica)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of thyroxine (T<sub>4</sub>) (0.1 ppm; 0.3 ppm; 0.5 ppm) on Sarotherodon niloticus L. yolk sac larvae were studied after 4 weeks of treatment from hatching. T<sub>4</sub> at 0.5 ppm accelerated yolk resorption but ...
Effect of artificial diets on growth and survival of milkfish fry in fresh water
(Elsevier, 1983)
Wild milkfish fry (mean weight = 15 mg) were reared in fresh water for 5 weeks using four artificial dry diets, Moina, or blended water hyacinth leaves as feed. The fry fed with artificial diets attained 83–95% mean survival ...
Protective immunity against viral nervous necrosis (VNN) in brown-marbled grouper (Epinephelus fuscogutattus) following vaccination with inactivated betanodavirus
(Academic Press, 2010)
Viral nervous necrosis (VNN) caused by betanodaviruses has been recently implicated in serious mortalities of groupers in the grow-out culture system. A safe and effective vaccine against this disease is urgently needed. ...
Enhancement of innate immunity in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum) associated with dietary intake of carotenoids from natural products
(Elsevier, 2004)
The effects of orally administered carotenoids from natural sources on the non-specific defense mechanisms of rainbow trout were evaluated in a nine-week feeding trial. Fish were fed four diets containing either β-carotene ...
Mass mortality of hatchery-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) caused by Amyloodinium ocellatum (Dinoflagellida)
(Elsevier, 2004)
Outbreaks of heavy infestation by the parasitic dinoflagellate Amyloodinium ocellatum in hatchery-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) caused 100% mortality events in hatcheries ...
