Induction of moulting in hatchery-reared mangrove crab Scylla serrata juveniles through temperature manipulation or autotomy
(Wiley, 2019)
The effects of temperature and autotomy of chelipeds on survival, growth and moulting of mangrove crab (Scylla serrata) juveniles were investigated under laboratory conditions for 60 days. Hatchery‐produced crabs with ...
Evaluation of hatchery-based enhancement of the mud crab, Scylla spp., fisheries in mangroves: comparison of species and release strategies
(CSIRO Publishing, 2009)
Ranching, stock enhancement and restocking are management approaches involving the release of wild or hatchery-bred organisms to enhance, conserve or restore fisheries. The present study, conducted from April 2002 to ...
Transport of Scylla serrata megalopae at various densities and durations
(Elsevier, 2000)
The optimal conditions for transport of Scylla serrata megalopae were determined. Loading densities of 50, 100 and 150 ind l<sup>−1</sup> of hatchery-reared megalopae were studied over a 6-h simulated transport, including ...
Pond culture of mud crab Scylla serrata (Forskal) fed formulated diet with or without vitamin and mineral supplements
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
The effects of three diets (Diet 1 – with vitamin and mineral supplements, Diet 2 – without vitamin and mineral supplements, and Diet 3 – fish bycatch) and monosex culture (male or female) on the growth, survival, feed ...
Culture of Scylla serrata megalops in brackishwater ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
Three- to five-day old hatchery-reared megalops (4.0 to 6.4 mg body weight) of the mud crab, Scylla serrata, were cultured to the juvenile stage in 20 m<sup>2</sup> net cages installed in brackishwater nursery ponds. To ...
Morphological deformities in mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles exposed to antibiotics during the larval stage
(Wiley, 2017)
The effects of antibiotics on the external deformities, growth and survival of mud crab Scylla serrata larvae and juveniles were determined. Zoeae were exposed to oxytetracycline (OTC) (0, 3.0, 6.0, 9.0, 12 mg L<sup>-1</sup>) ...
Effects of dietary l-tryptophan on the agonistic behavior, growth and survival of juvenile mud crab Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2010)
The reduction of the survival of mud crab during culture has been largely attributed to aggressive encounters and cannibalism. In some crustaceans, suppressed aggression is linked to increased concentration of circulating ...
Commercial evaluation of monosex pond culture of the mud crab Scylla species at three stocking densities in the Philippines.
(Elsevier, 1999)
The effects of three levels of stocking density (0.5, 1.5 or 3.0 m<sup>−2</sup>) and monosex culture (male or female) on the growth, apparent feed conversion ratio (FCR), survival, and production of mixed species of mud ...
Mud crab fattening in ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
Two independent experiments on mud crab (Scylla serrata, Portunidae) fattening were conducted simultaneously in 150 m<sup>2</sup> ponds for 30 days: Expt. I - monosex male (286 ± 1.2 g) vs. monosex female (267 ± 0.9 g) ...
Phenotypic differences between hatchery-reared and wild mud crabs, Scylla Serrata, and the effects of conditioning
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
Hatchery-reared animals for stock enhancement should be competent to survive and grow at rates equivalent to those of wild conspecifics. However, morphological differences are often observed, and pre-conditioning steps may ...
