The significant role of aquaculture in providing food security has been recognized, not only through its contribution to food supply, but also through the promotion of economic and social well-being. Aquaculture is also ...
Swollen hindgut syndrome (SHG) in hatchery-reared Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
In the course of routine microscopic analysis of hatchery-reared Penaeus monodon postlarvae, several batches were found with hindgut abnormalities not previously described in shrimp postlarvae. The abnormality was named ...
Disease management in shrimp farming
(INFOFISH, 2002)
Shrimp monoculture systems have been beset with devastating losses due to infectious diseases and environmental deterioration. On a global scale, efforts to make shrimp culture a sustainable industry are warranted because ...
Studies on the efficacy of Sarafin® (sarafloxacin hydrochloride) on vibrios associated with vibriosis in black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
In vitro activity of Sarafin® (sarafloxacin hydrochloride) was determined against 7 luminous Vibrio harveyi isolates and 3 non-luminous Vibrio species (V. parahaemolyticus, V. alginolyticus and Vibrio species) isolated ...
A strategy for sustainable mariculture
(Malacca Straits Research and Development Centre (MASDEC), Universiti Putra Malaysia, 2002)
From merely growing shellfish and macroalgae along the freinges of the sea, man is naw growing marine fish in cages thus expanding the range of mariculture. While the farming of shellfish may have its own set of problems ...

Differential expression of insulin-like growth factor I and II mRNAs during embryogenesis and early larval development in rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Academic Press, 2002)
In rodents, the expression of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) is higher than that of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) during fetal life while the reverse is true after birth. We wanted to examine whether this ...
Pen culture of mud crab Scylla serrata in tidal flats reforested with mangrove trees
(Elsevier, 2002)
Growth and survival of mixed sex mud crabs <i>Scylla serrata</i> (Forskal), held in 200 m<sup>2</sup> pens located in reforested mangrove tidal flats, were evaluated. The effects of stocking density (0.5 or 1.5 m<sup>−2</sup>) ...
