Distribution of the tropical seaweed crops Eucheuma spp. and Kappaphycus spp. inside and outside of their native range
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)
Seaweed aquaculture is a fast-growing industry worldwide and has the potential to change the seascape of coastal regions, including the movement of species outside their native range. Two of the crops with the highest ...
Growth and survival of oyster Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932): A comparison of wild and hatchery-bred spat in grow-out culture
(Elsevier, 2020-12-25)
Oyster farming is an important industry both in developed and developing countries. The high demand for oysters has caused overexploitation of natural stocks. This led to dwindling spat fall and unstable production. This ...
Exploring, harnessing and conserving marine genetic resources towards a sustainable seaweed aquaculture
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-03-27)
Seaweed cultivation is the fastest‐growing aquaculture sector, with a demonstrable potential to drive development in some of the poorest coastal populations worldwide. However, sustainable exploitation, fair access and ...
Preliminary survey of pests and diseases of eucheumatoid seaweed farms in the Philippines
(Springer, 2021-05-04)
Farmed eucheumatoids are the top aquaculture commodity in the Philippines, contributing more than 60% of total national aquaculture production by volume. Despite significant production losses observed in recent years due ...
Nursery and grow-out culture of the abalone Haliotis asinina on a reef flat: A comparison of growth and survival using different culture containers
(Elsevier, 2021-08)
The study was conducted to compare four different culture containers [cage, recycled oil container, tray (control), and tube] in the nursery and grow-out culture of the abalone Haliotis asinina on a reef flat. For nursery ...
Producing young, single and meaty oyster Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932) in grow‐out culture using pouches suspended from rafts
(Wiley, 2021-06-11)
Growth and survival of the slipper oyster <i>Crassostrea iredalei</i> using traditional (tires and oyster shells) and new methods (pouches and trays) suspended from floating rafts were compared. After six months of grow-out ...
Single and mixed species of microalgae as larval food for the tropical sea cucumber Holothuria scabra
(Springer, 2021-05-31)
Different microalgae as larval food for Holothuria scabra, a high-value sea cucumber species with hatchery technology continually being refined to improve production, were studied. Two experiments were conducted to determine ...
Settlement of oyster Magallana bilineata (Röding, 1798) spat in the natural environment: Seasonality and substrate texture preference
(Malacological Society of Australasia; Society for the Study of Molluscan Diversity; Taylor and Francis, 2022-05-12)
This study determined the seasonality of Magallana bilineata spat settlement in a natural oyster bed and established surface texture preference of competent larvae by comparing the numbers of spat settling on the smooth ...
Comparison of commercial Spirulina, live Navicula sp. and Chaetoceros calcitrans concentrate as settlement cues for sandfish, Holothuria scabra
(Springer, 2022-05-23)
The settlement of sea cucumbers is a crucial phase of larval development because the highest mortality occurs at this stage. Substrates and cues are commonly used to induce larval settlement. Commercial algae and live ...
