Acute nitrite toxicity and methemoglobinemia in juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1987)
Nitrite was about 55 times more toxic to milkfish juveniles in fresh water than in 16% brackish water: the 48-h median lethal concentrations were 12 mg NO<sub>2-</sub>N/l (95% confidence limit=7.4–19.6) and 675 mg ...
The economics of retarding milkfish growth for fingerling production in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1987)
Two experiments were conducted to measure the economic viability of retarding milkfish growth (stunting) in brackishwater ponds. In the first experiment, 2-month-old fish were reared for 6 months in ponds with initial ...
Occurrence and distribution of milkfish larvae, Chanos chanos off the western coast of Panay Island, Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 1987)
The occurence and distribution of milkfish larvae (∼3–17 mm TL) off western Panay Island, Philippines are reported based on 594 plankton net tows made in April and May 1980. Forty-two tows yielded 44 larvae, together with ...
Induced spawning of maturing milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues administered in various ways
(Elsevier, 1987)
The response of mature female captive milkfish to mammalian and salmon gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues (mGnRH-A and sGnRH-A) was investigated. Prior to spawning, six groups of three females received (1) 10–16 μg ...
Nutrition-related histopathology of the intestine of milkfish Chanos chanos fry
(Inter Research, 1987)
A histopathological study was conducted on the intestine of milkfish larvae Chanos chanos, subjected to different nutritional conditions. Newly caught milkfish fry, ca 20 d old, were starved for 7 d and and then fed with ...
Morphological aspects of the development of swimming and feeding functions in the milkfish Chanos chanos
(The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1987)
Development of swimming and feeding abilities based on morphological development of larval and early juvenileChanos chanos was investigated. In larvae smaller than about 6.5 mm SL, mechanical supports of fins and branchial ...
Effects of Chlorella-feeding on larval milkfish, Chanos chanos, as evidenced by histological monitoring
(Elsevier, 1987)
Milkfish, Chanos chanos, larvae were found to suffer 100% mortality within 6 days of feeding when reared on Chlorella sp. According to the liver ultrastructure, Chlorella-fed fish underwent starvation. Likewise, no signs ...
Development of the digestive tract of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal): Histology and histochemistry
(Elsevier, 1987)
The digestive tract of the newly hatched milkfish larva is a simple undifferentiated tube. Three days after hatching, differentiation of the esophagus begins with development of mucous-secreting cells. At this time, the ...
Evaluation of various leguminous seeds as protein sources for milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, juveniles
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1987)
The nutritive value of four leguminous plant seeds: pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan), mungo (Phaseolus radiatus), kidneybean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and soybean (Glycine max), were evaluated as protein sources for milkfish (Chanos ...
