Substrate preference for burying and feeding of sandfish Holothuria scabra juveniles
(Elsevier, 2017)Substrate preference for both burying and feeding of sandfish Holothuria scabra juveniles (3–6 g wet body weight) and their associated daily behavior, growth and survival were investigated in laboratory and field experiments ... -
Growth response of cultured larvae of silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner, 1864) in outdoor tanks in relation to fertilizer type and fish density
Aya, Frolan; Garcia, Luis Maria (Wiley, 2016)
This study evaluated the effects of fertilizer type and fish density on early growth and survival of silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner, 1864) larvae reared in outdoor tanks. In the first experiment, larvae (1.92 ... -
Temporal changes in innate immunity parameters, epinecidin gene expression, and mortality in orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides experimentally infected with a fish pathogen, Vibrio harveyi JML1
Amar, Edgar C.; Faisan, Joseph P., Jr. ; ; Pakingking, Rolando V., Jr. (Elsevier, 2017)
Changes in innate immunity parameters and epinecidin mRNA transcript levels were examined to characterize the non-specific immune response of E. coioides to pathogenic V. harveyi JML1 isolated from affected cage-cultured ... -
Poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate-enriched Artemia sp. for giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon larviculture
Ludevese-Pascual, Gladys; Laranja, Joseph Leopoldo ; Amar, Edgar C. ; ; ; (John Wiley and Sons, 2017)
The beneficial effects of PHB as supplement for giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon postlarvae using a short-term enrichment strategy via Artemia were examined. The effects of co-supplementing with a lipid emulsion were also ... -
A probiotic Bacillus strain containing amorphous poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) stimulates the innate immune response of Penaeus monodon postlarvae
Laranja, Joseph Leopoldo; Amar, Edgar C. ; Ludevese-Pascual, Gladys ; ; ; ; (Elsevier, 2017)
In this study, the PHB-accumulating Bacillus sp. JL47 strain (capable of accumulating 55% PHB on cell dry weight) was investigated for its effects on the immune response of giant tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) postlarvae ... -
Morphological deformities in mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles exposed to antibiotics during the larval stage
; Quinitio, Emilia T.; (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-1) ... -
Use of agar-bound microparticulate diet as alternative food for tropical abalone, Haliotis asinina (Linnaeus 1758) post-larvae in large-scale cultures
(Springer Verlag, 2017)The efficacy of using agar-bound microparticulate diet (A-MPD) as alternative food for abalone Haliotis asinina Linne post-larvae in large-scale culture was investigated. Larvae sourced from the hatchery-bred (HB) and ... -
Quality assessment of newly hatched mud crab, Scylla serrata, larvae
Quinitio, Emilia T.; ; (Wiley, 2018)
Starvation and exposure to formalin were investigated as possible stress tests for evaluating the quality of mud crab, Scylla serrata, larvae. For the starvation stress test, newly hatched zoeae stocked in 150-ml containers ... -
Optimum low salinity to reduce cannibalism and improve survival of the larvae of freshwater African catfish Clarias gariepinus
; Bagarinao, Teodora; ; ; ; (Springer Verlag, 2017)
