Mass production in concrete tanks of sugpo Penaeus monodon Fabricius spawners by eyestalk ablation
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1978)
Two batches of 196 and 181 P. monodon females were ablated on one eyestalk in March and July 1977, respectively, and a control batch of 180 unablated females was stocked in July 1977. The females were stocked with males ...
