Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulating Bacillus spp. improve the survival, growth and robustness of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius, 1798) postlarvae
Laranja, Joseph Leopoldo
; Ludevese-Pascual, Gladys ; Amar, Edgar C. ; ; ; (Elsevier, 2014)
Low larval survival resulting from suboptimal culture conditions and luminous vibriosis poses a major problem for the larviculture of penaeid shrimp. In this study, a poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulating mixed bacterial ... -

Biomass yield of Isochrysis galbana (Parke; clone T-ISO) and growth of Brachionus rotundiformis (Tschugunoff) using continuous cultivation method
(College of Agriculture, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2014)Batch culture of Isochrysis galbana clone T-ISO is difficult due to its unstable biomass production; hence, the effect of continuous cultivation at different dilution rates was investigated to compare its productivity with ... -
Comparing profits from shrimp aquaculture with and without green-water technology in the Philippines
; Tendencia, Eleonor (Taylor & Francis, 2014)
To reduce disease impact, Philippine farmers developed the green-water (GW) system, which has been spreading rapidly since 2008. In the most applied GW-system, the shrimp pond receives water from a reservoir stocked with ... -
Community-based technology transfer in rural aquaculture: The case of mudcrab Scylla serrata nursery in ponds in northern Samar, central Philippines
; ; Quinitio, Emilia T. (Springer Verlag, 2014)
Finding aquaculture development approaches to open up livelihood opportunities for the rural poor and in mainstreaming smallholder fish farmers to reduce poverty remain a challenge. This paper examines the community-based ... -
Improved resistance against White Spot Virus (WSV) infection in tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon by combined supplementation of peptidoglycan and mannan oligosaccharide (MOS)
; ; Amar, Edgar C.; ; (Bioflux Society, 2014)
An eight-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of combined supplementation of peptidoglycan and mannan oligosaccharide (MOS) in tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon. Tiger shrimp (0.29 ± 0.02 g) were fed diets ... -
Diet-tissue stable isotopic fractionation of tropical sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra
; ; ; Lebata-Ramos, Maria Junemie Hazel (Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences (JIRCAS), 2013)
To provide a basis for a stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratio \(\mathsf{(\delta^{13}C / \delta^{15}N)}\) analysis to determine the assimilated organic matter in sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra, diet-tissue fractionations ... -
Spawning of tiger grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and squaretail coralgrouper Plectropomus areolatus in sea cages and onshore tanks in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India
(Elsevier, 2013)The broodstock of two grouper species, tiger grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and squaretail coralgrouper Plectropomus areolatus, were maintained in sea cages near Rutland Island, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India, and ... -
Diversity and distribution of freshwater fish assemblages in Tayabas River, Quezon (Philippines)
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 2013)Three stream sections (upstream, midstream, and downstream) of Tayabas River, Philippines were surveyed during the wet and dry seasons of 2010 to evaluate the poorly known status of freshwater fish assemblages. The study ... -
Evaluation of post-release behavior, recapture, and growth rates of hatchery-reared abalone Haliotis asinina released in Sagay Marine Reserve, Philippines
Lebata-Ramos, Ma. Junemie Hazel; ; ; ; ; Sibonga, Rema (Taylor & Francis, 2013)
The lucrative returns brought by abalone fisheries have caused overexploitation and decline of the wild population. In the Philippines, the Aquaculture Department of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center has ... -
Evaluation of density and cage design for the nursery and grow-out of the tropical abalone Haliotis asinina Linne 1758
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2013)The effect of stocking density and cage design on the growth, survival rate, and feed conversion ratio was evaluated for the nursery (11–15 mm in shell length) and juvenile grow-out (26–30 mm in shell length) of the tropical ... -
Net mesh size affects production of giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii cultured in lake-based cages
(Wiley, 2013)Cage culture of freshwater prawns in open waters is prone to the entry of predators and competitors that particularly hamper production. This study was conducted to determine how smaller net mesh sizes to reduce entry of ... -
