Variation of otolith strontium concentration in elongate surgeonfish, Acanthurus mata
(Ite-iba Inc., 2005)
The Elongate surgeonfish Acanthurus mata caught from the sea and feeding in the milkfish’s net cages separated from wild fish were measured for their otolith strontium (Sr) concentration using an wave-length dispersive ...
Mangroves, fishponds, and the quest for sustainability
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2005)
Aquaculture, the farming of shrimp and other useful aquatic and marine plants and animals in artificially confined and tended ponds, pens, and cages, ranks as a phenomenal success story in global food production. In 1975, ...
Anti-luminous Vibrio factors associated with the ‘green water’ grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 2005)
The ability of the “green water” grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon to prevent outbreaks of Luminous Vibriosis was investigated by screening associated isolates of bacteria, fungi, phytoplankton and fish ...
Cell growth, effect of filtrate and nutritive value of the tropical Prasinophyte Tetraselmis tetrathele (Butcher) at different phases of culture
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
A local algal isolate Tetraselmis tetrathele was studied to determine the suitable levels of three growth factors (nutrient medium, light intensity and photoperiod) for mass culture. Significantly higher population cell ...
Seabream GnRH: partial cDNA cloning, localization and stage-dependent expression in the ovary of snake head murrel, Channa striatus
(Springer Verlag, 2005)
Vertebrate reproduction is under the neuroendocrine control of the hypothalamic decapeptide GnRH which synchronizes various reproductive events and influences other reproduction related aspects like spawning behavior and ...
A farmer-oriented Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., breed improvement in the Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Opportunities for developing small-scale tilapia industry in the Philippines is hampered by the shortage of good-quality seeds and broodstock. Most small-scale farmers are dependent on distribution centres for improved ...
Comparison of some live organisms and artificial diet as feed for Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Günther) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Experiments were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of five live organisms (Artemia, Brachionus calyciflorus, Chironomus plumosus, Moina macrocopa and Tubifex sp.) and an artificial diet (40% protein) in the larval rearing ...
Antimicrobial susceptibility of Aeromonas spp., Vibrio spp. and Plesiomonas shigelloides isolated in the Philippines and Thailand
(International Society of Chemotherapy, 2005)
Aeromonas spp., non-cholera vibrios (NCVs) and Plesiomonas shigelloides belong to the expanding group of water and food-borne pathogens. They are widely distributed in aquatic environments and are increasingly regarded as ...
Molecular typing of Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains isolated from the Philippines by PCR-based methods
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2005)
Aim: The main aim of the present study was to use three PCR-based techniques for the analysis of genetic variability among Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains isolated from the Philippines.
Methods and Results: Seventeen ...
Response of the tropical abalone, Haliotis asinina, larvae on combinations of attachment cues
(Springer Verlag, 2005)
The effects of different diatom species and types of substrates in combination with 0.45 μM GABA on the metamorphosis of Haliotis asinina larvae were tested. Diatom slurry elicited the best metamorphic response followed ...
