Microsatellite–centromere mapping in the Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) by half-tetrad analysis using induced triploid families
(Elsevier, 2006)
Genetic improvement of the Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) can be achieved by artificially controlling its life cycle using recent advances in reproductive biology. In this study, we developed 43 microsatellite loci to ...
Biodiversity in mangrove-derived aquaculture ponds in Dumangas, Iloilo, Philippines
(Science and Technology Information Institute, Department of Science and Technology, 2021-02)
Large tracts of mangroves have been converted into aquaculture ponds and the consequent loss of biodiversity has been much decried. This paper shows that high aquatic biodiversity is retained in mangrove-derived aquaculture ...
Effects of low nitrogen-phosphorus ratios in the phytoplankton community in Laguna de Bay, a shallow eutrophic lake in the Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 2004)
The effects of low nitrogen-phosphorus ratios on microalgae from a large eutrophic freshwater lake in the Philippines were investigated. Natural microalgal populations from Laguna de Bay, the largest lake in the Philippines, ...
Fish performance, nutrient digestibilities, and hepatic and intestinal morphologies in grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus fed fermented copra meal
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
Protein enhanced copra meal (PECM®) is an alternative, cheap, and sustainable source of plant protein for the aquafeed industry, albeit its use on carnivorous fish species has been very limited. A 70-day feeding trial using ...
Collection of the clam Anodontia edentula in mangrove habitats in Panay and Guimaras, central Philippines
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2002)
The mangrove clam Anodontia edentula is highly prized in the Philippines for its flavor and large size. Because this infaunal species is found down to one meter deep in mangrove areas, harvesting the clam reportedly damages ...
Butylated hydroxytoluene: its effect on the quality of shrimp diet stored at various temperatures and on growth and survival of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Elsevier, 1999)
Shrimp diets with and without the antioxidant, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) were stored at 10°, 20°, 28°–30°, and 40°C for 10 weeks. To monitor lipolysis and lipid oxidation, free fatty acid (FFA) content, peroxide values ...
The effects of temperature and starvation on the ultrastructure of the hepatocytes of seaperch fingerlings, Lates calcarifer (Bloch).
(Elsevier, 1987)
The hepatocytes of seaperch fingerlings reared on trashfish at constant water temperatures of 20 and 35°C were examined through electron microscopy and compared with those of controls fed identical diet or deprived of food ...
Growth, survival and feed conversion of juvenile shrimp (Penaeus monodon) fed a betaine/amino acid additive
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1996)
Diets low in animal but high in plant protein were enhanced with a chemoattractant FinnStim (FS), a betaine/amino additive. These were fed to juvenile shrimp, Penaeus monodon, in three tank experiments. All diets were ...
Natural spawning, egg and fry production of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), broodstock reared in concrete tanks
(Blackwell Publishing, 1994)
Gonadal maturation, rematuration, and spawning of nine- (1982 stock) and ten-year-old (1981 stock) milkfish reared in 150 and 200 m<sup>3</sup> concrete tanks were observed in 1990 and 1991. From 23 September to 9 November ...
Effect of thyroxine on growth and development in post-yolk-sac larvae of milkfish, Chanos chanos
(Elsevier, 1985)
Post-yolk-sac larvae of milkfish, Chanos chanos (commonly referred to as “fry”) were collected along the shore in the Philippines. Treatment of these long, slender and transparent larvae with L-thyroxine-sodium (Eltroxin, ...
