The current state of aquaculture in Laguna de Bay
(Philippine Institute for Development Studies, 2007)
This paper presents some of the preliminary results and findings of an ongoing study, jointly conducted by the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC AQD) and Philippine Institute for Development Studies ...
Shell marking by artificial feeding of the tropical abalone Haliotis asinina Linne juveniles for sea ranching and stock enhancement
(Blackwell Publishing, 2003)
A method of marking abalone (Haliotis asinina Linne) for sea ranching and stock enhancement purposes was developed. Three-month-old abalone juveniles (11.8-mm shell length, 0.28 g) were fed artificial diets for 1, 2, or 3 ...
Quality of hatchery-reared juveniles for marine fisheries stock enhancement
(Elsevier, 2007)
The potential for stock enhancement by release of hatchery-reared juveniles continues to be a topic of interest to researchers and fisheries managers. While, in many studies, the focus has tended to be on the technology ...
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, ...
Distribution and symptoms of epiphyte infection in major carrageenophyte-producing farms
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
High density commercial farming of carrageenophyte Kappaphycus alvarezii is often plagued with “ice-ice” disease and epiphyte infection, which eventually leads to reduced production and in some cases collapse of crop. ...
Community fishery resources management on Malalison Island, Philippines: R & D framework, interventions, and policy implications
(Taylor & Francis, 2000)
In 1991, the Aquaculture Department of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center launched a community-based fishery resources management project on Malalison Island, in central Philippines, to help conserve the ...
A preliminary summary on Kappaphycus farming and the impact of epiphytes
(Japanese Society of Phycology, 2004)
The read seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty) Doty ex. P.C. Silva, commonly called "cottonii" in the processing industry, is used as raw material for the production of the hydrocolloid kappa carrageenan. Through biotechnological ...
Seed production of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Some aspects of the reproductive biology of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus) were investigated to identify suitable techniques for broodstock management and seed production. Likewise, factors such as ablation, water depth and ...
Polyculture of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) and the red seaweed Gracilariopsis bailinae (Zhang et Xia) in brackish water earthen ponds
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2004)
Growth, net production, and survival rates of milkfish cultured with Gracilariopsis bailinae at two stocking density combinations (T<sub>1</sub>– 30 fingerlings 100-m<sup>−2</sup> pond+1-kg G. bailinae 4-m<sup>−2</sup> net ...
Development and conservation of Philippine mangroves: institutional issues
(Elsevier, 2000)
The decline of Philippine mangroves from half a million hectares in 1918 to only 120 000 ha in 1994 may be traced to local exploitation for fuelwood and conversion to agriculture, salt beds, industry and settlements. But ...
