Acute toxicity of nitrite to mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)Early larval stages of mud crab Scylla serrata were exposed to different concentrations of nitrite (40, 80 and 160 mg L−1 and a control, without added nitrite) and three salinity levels (25, 30 and 35 g ... -
Extension of nursery culture of Scylla serrata (Forsskål) juveniles in net cages and ponds
; ; Quinitio, Emilia T. (Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
To address the preference of mud crab farmers for larger size Scylla serrata juveniles (5.0–10 g body weight or BW; 3.0–5.0 cm internal carapace width or ICW), a study was conducted to compare the growth and survival of ... -
Ovarian maturation stages of the mud crab Scylla serrata
Quinitio, Emilia T.; ; (Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Ovarian maturation in adult wild-sourced and pond-grown Scylla serrata (Forsskål) was determined based on gross morphology and histological appearance. There were no significant differences noted in the histological features ... -
Meristic and morphometric variation in the silver perch, Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner, 1864), from three lakes in the Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)A number of researchers have applied multivariate methods to elucidate the population structure of fishes. In this study, we also used multivariate techniques to examine meristic and morphological variations in the silver ... -

Primavera, Jurgenne; ; Lebata, M. J. H. L. ; ; (University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, 2007)
The capacity of a natural mangrove system in Ibajay, Aklan province, central Philippines to process shrimp pond culture effluents was assessed through analysis of mangrove community structure and 24-hr monitoring of water ... -
Seed production of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus)
; Quinitio, Emilia T.; (Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Some aspects of the reproductive biology of Charybdis feriatus (Linnaeus) were investigated to identify suitable techniques for broodstock management and seed production. Likewise, factors such as ablation, water depth and ... -
Susceptibility of fish species cultured in mangrove brackish area to piscine nodavirus
(Tropical Agricultural Research Centre, 2007)Susceptibility of orange-spotted grouper Epinephelus coioides, Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer, mangrove red snapper Lutjanus argentimaculatus, milkfish Chanos chanos, and rabbitfish Siganus guttatus to piscine nodavirus ... -
