Point-of-no-return and delayed feeding mortalities in first-feeding larvae of the silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner) (Teleostei: Terapontidae)
Garcia, Luis Maria ; ; Aya, Frolan (Elsevier, 2020-02)
; ; Aya, Frolan (Elsevier, 2020-02)
This study examined the incidence of mortalities among first-feeding post-yolk sac silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner) larvae deprived of live food in the hatchery. Starting after their yolk was consumed at 40 ...

Improved survival, prey selectivity and diel feeding cycle of silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Perciformes: Terapontidae) larvae reared in tanks with substrate
Aya, Frolan ; ; ; Garcia, Luis Maria (Springer Verlag, 2019)
; ; ; Garcia, Luis Maria (Springer Verlag, 2019)
Physical substrates in the rearing environment can influence the early survival and feeding patterns of captive-reared fish. In this study, we determined whether substrates affect the survival and growth of hatchery-reared ...

Spawning response of mature female sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch), to a single injection of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue: effect of dose and initial oocyte size
Garcia, Luis Maria (Blackwell Publishing, 1989)
(Blackwell Publishing, 1989)
The effect of various doses of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (LHRHa) ranging from 1 to 100 μg/kg body weight on the spawning response of mature female sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch) was tested. A single ...

Critical factors influencing survival and hatching of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport
Garcia, Luis Maria ; (Elsevier, 1988)
; (Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of loading density, length of transit time, temperature and salinity on milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport were examined. Rocking motion approximating conditions of transport of ...
