Low or partial discharge and closed-recirculating systems for the culture of shrimp [Penaeus monodon (Fabricius)] at several demonstration sites in the Philippines
(College of Agriculture, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2011)
A series of verification runs on the farming of shrimp [Penaeus monodon (Fabricius)] using environment-friendly techniques was conducted in different pilot demonstration sites including privately owned farms in the Philippines ...
Temperature fluctuation, low salinity, water microflora: Risk factors for WSSV outbreaks in Penaeus monodon.
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2011)
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has been devastating the shrimp industry for almost a decade. This study compares water parameters, alkalinity, and microflora in three ponds on a farm on Negros Island (Philippines) during ...
Prevalence of viral nervous necrosis (VNN) virus in wild-caught and trash fish in the Philippines
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2011)
Viral nervous necrosis (VNN) caused by piscine nodavirus is a devastating disease affecting mainly marine finfish. In the Philippines, VNN was first reported in hatchery-reared grouper (Epinephelus coioides) broodstock in ...
Survival and growth of mud crab, Scylla serrata, juveniles subjected to removal or trimming of chelipeds
(Elsevier, 2011)
The effects of removing or trimming the chelipeds at various molt stages on regeneration, molt interval (MI) and specific growth rate (SGR) were determined in mud crab Scylla serrata. These strategies in combination with ...
Phenotypic differences between hatchery-reared and wild mud crabs, Scylla Serrata, and the effects of conditioning
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
Hatchery-reared animals for stock enhancement should be competent to survive and grow at rates equivalent to those of wild conspecifics. However, morphological differences are often observed, and pre-conditioning steps may ...
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) risk factors associated with shrimp farming practices in polyculture and monoculture farms in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 2011)
White spot sydrome virus (WSSV) is one of the most important viral disease of shrimp. Several studies to control the disease have been done. Tank experiments identified WSSV risk factors related to the physico chemical ...

Optimization of culture conditions for tissue culture production of young plantlets of carrageenophyte Kappaphycus
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
To improve the production of Kappaphycus plantlets in tissue culture, optimum media concentrations of an Ascophyllum nodosum extract (Acadian Marine Plant Extract Powder, AMPEP), plant growth regulators (PGR), pH–temperature ...
Developmental historicity and saccharide heterotrophy of Schizochytrium sp. OT01: Implication of docosahexaenoic acid production for biotechnological applications
(Rushing Water Publishers, 2011)
Thraustochytrids have been targeted worldwide in search of highly oleaginous strains for industrial applications and newly collected holotypes are described based on life cycle developmental history and saccharide heterotrophy. ...
