Mudcrab pen culture in mangroves
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
Over the years, commercial production of mudcrab, Scylla spp, has been undertaken only in bamboo or net-fenced brackishwater ponds. Its feasibility was proven through series of verification trials conducted in commercial ...
Pen culture of mud crab Scylla serrata in tidal flats reforested with mangrove trees
(Elsevier, 2002)
Growth and survival of mixed sex mud crabs <i>Scylla serrata</i> (Forskal), held in 200 m<sup>2</sup> pens located in reforested mangrove tidal flats, were evaluated. The effects of stocking density (0.5 or 1.5 m<sup>−2</sup>) ...
From triphenyltins to integrated management of the 'pest' snail Cerithidea cingulata in mangrove-derived milkfish ponds in the Philippines
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2000)
The potamidid snail Cerithidea cingulata is considered a pest in brackishwater milkfish ponds in the Philippines and has been controlled by the triphenyltin (TPT) compounds Aquatin and Brestan. But TPT is also toxic to ...
Salinity tolerance of larvae of the mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) during ontogeny
(Elsevier, 2000)
Salinity tolerance and the effects of salinity on growth, condition factor and chloride cell (CC) densities were evaluated for Lutjanus argentimaculatus larvae during ontogeny. Tolerance of L. argentimaculatus larvae to ...
Size and diel differences in activity patterns of Metapenaeus ensis, Penaeus latisulcatus and P. merguiensis
(Taylor & Francis, 2000)
The nursery function of mangroves as shelter has been postulated to explain the positive correlation between shrimp catches and mangrove area. This study was undertaken to document shelter use and other activities in ...

To evaluate the impact on biota of the release of arrow up million liters of bunker oil off Guimaras Island, Central Philippines, the penaeid shrimp populations in a protected island mangrove (Tandog) and a riverine mangrove ...
Elemental sulfur in the gills of the mangrove mud clam Anodontia edentula (Family Lucinidae)
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2000)
Different sizes of the mangrove mud clam <i>Anodontia edentula</i> were collected from the mangroves in Brgy. San Roque in Estancia, Iloilo, central Philippines, and the mantle, gill, and foot tissues were analyzed for ...
Genetic diversity of wild and cultured black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) in the Philippines using microsatellites
(Elsevier, 2001)
Six microsatellites were used to study (1) the genetic diversity of wild <i>Penaeus monodon</i> shrimp from four geographic regions (Palawan, Quezon, Capiz and Negros Occidental-W) in the Philippines, and (2) its association ...
