Ovarian maturation stages of the mud crab Scylla serrata
(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 ...
Prevalence of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in wild shrimp Penaeus monodon in the Philippines
(Inter Research, 2007)
Prevalence of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) was determined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methodology on DNA extracted from the gills of wild black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon collected from 7 sampling sites in ...
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<sup>−1</sup> and a control, without added nitrite) and three salinity levels (25, 30 and 35 g ...

(Springer Verlag, 2007)
Three color morphotypes of Kappaphycus alvarezii var. adik-adik (brown, green and red) collected from a farming area in Tictauan Is., Zamboanga City, Philippines were used as explants in the study in order to micropropagate ...
Formalin as an alternative to trifluralin as prophylaxis against fungal infection in mud crab Scylla serrata (Forsskål) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
The toxicity of formalin and trifluralin to the larval stages of the mud crab Scylla serrata was compared in a static bioassay. Prophylactic doses of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 μg L<sup>−1</sup> formalin and 0.05, 0.1, ...
Cell growth and nutritive value of the tropical benthic diatom, Amphora sp., at varying levels of nutrients and light intensity, and different culture locations
(Springer Verlag, 2007)
Two series of experiments were conducted to determine suitable growth factors for the mass propagation of the local algal isolate Amphora sp. A higher growth rate of 0.2 doubling (μ) day<sup>-1</sup> was attained at a lower ...
