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 ... -
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 ... -
Biofloc-based nursery production system: Heeding the call towards a sustainable shrimp culture industry in the Philippines
(International Network for Natural Sciences, 2022)The increasing global population resulted in intense pressure on the food production sectors to meet the rise in food demand. The aquaculture industry, which is one of the major food production sectors, provides opportunities ... -
Effect of background tank color in combination with sand substrate and shelters on survival and growth of Scylla tranquebarica instar
(Elsevier, 2022-05)Effect of tank color in combination with substrate-shelters on the survival and growth of the instar of purple mud crab, Scylla tranquebarica (initial body weight of 28.7 ± 2 mg) was investigated. Ten treatments were tested ... -
Phylogenetic analysis of tilapia lake virus (TiLV) isolates from the Philippines based on partial genome segment 3 sequences
(College of Agriculture and Food Science, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2022-03)This study aimed to expand current knowledge on TiLV genetic diversity by sequence analysis of a portion of genome segment 3 of TiLV detected from the Philippines.
