Characterization of betanodaviruses in the Philippines
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2008)
Viral nervous necrosis caused by betanodaviruses is one of the most devastating diseases in cultured marine finfish. In the Philippines, mass mortalities occurred in sea bass, Lates calcarifer larvae and grouper, Epinephelus ...
Immunolocalisation of nervous necrosis virus indicates vertical transmission in hatchery produced Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch)—A case study
(Elsevier, 2006)
A probable vertical mode of piscine nodavirus transmission is reported in the present investigation based on a case of nodavirus associated larval mortalities in hatchery produced Asian sea bass. Polyclonal rabbit anti-SJNNV ...
Environmental capacity of receiving water as basis for regulating intensity of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) culture
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
This paper presents the results of the assessment of the environmental condition of a receiving water and demonstrates how the environmental capacity of the system can be estimated based on effluent discharge from milkfish ...
Results of drift card experiments and considerations on the movement of milkfish eggs and larvae in the northern Sulu Sea
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1979)
For a period of one year beginning December 1977, drift card experiments were conducted off the western and southwestern coasts of Panay Island to determine the surface currents in the area.
Of a total 2,384 drift cards ...
Expression and purification of a biologically active recombinant rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) growth hormone
(Elsevier, 2005)
Recombinant rabbitfish growth hormone (rfGH) protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, BL21(DE3) cells. The cDNA encoding the mature protein of rfGH was first cloned in pGEM-Teasy vector and then transferred to pET-3d ...
Withdrawal of exogenous 17-alpha methyltestosterone causes reversal of sex-inversed male grouper Epinephelus suillus (Valenciennes)
(San Carlos Publications, 1992)
The protogynous hermaphrodite groupers Epinephelus suillus were given bi-weekly injections of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone (MT) intramuscularly for three to six months. Spermatogenesis occurred after three months of MT ...
Effect of iodine disinfection on the bacterial flora and hatching rate of grouper, Epinephelus coioides eggs at the cleavage and eyed stages
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2001)
In this study, the effect of iodine disinfection on the bacterial flora and hatching rate of grouper egg at two different stages of development were investigated. The eggs (at cleavage and eyed stages) were soaked for 10 ...
Sea lice (Copepoda, Caligidae) parasitic on marine cultured and wild fishes of the Philippines
(The Fisheries Society of Taiwan, 2004)
Four species of sea lice were found parasitic on ten species of marine fishes either cultured in the coastal ponds or occurring in the sea water supply canals in the Philippines. They are: Caligus epidemicus Hewitt, 1971 ...
Isolation, cDNA cloning, and growth promoting activity of rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) growth hormone
(Elsevier, 2000)
We report the isolation, cDNA cloning, and growth promoting activity of rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus; Teleostei; Perciformes; Siganidae) growth hormone (GH). Rabbitfish GH was extracted from pituitary glands under alkaline ...
Feeding ecology of silverperch, Terapon plumbeus Kner, and the impact fish-pens in Laguna de Bay, Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2000)
Aquaculture is an important factor in the fishery of Laguna de Bay in the Philippines; fish-pens and net-cages covered ≈10% of the lake surface in the late 1990s. The present study was carried out to assess the possible ...
