Price relationships in Philippine milkfish markets: Univariate and causality analysis
(International Association of Aquaculture Economics and Management (IAAEM), 2006)
Uncertainties and lack of information on milkfish product prices, along with production-related problems with inputs, generally constrain efficient resource use in milkfish grow-out operations. Milkfish growers complain ...

(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 2006)
An assessment of the extensive fringing reefs surrounding Mararison lsland, Culasi, Antique was undertaken in 1994 to 1996 and in 1998 to provide scientific basis for management and enhancement of the island s resources ...
Enrichment potential of HUFA-rich thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei for the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis
(Elsevier, 2009)
An enrichment experiment was performed to evaluate the changes in lipid and essential fatty acid contents of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis fed with freeze-dried cells of tropical thraustochytrid Schizochytrium mangrovei ...
Successful spawning of cultured Penaeus monodon Fabricius after eyestalk ablation
(Elsevier, 1977)
Preliminary experiments resulted in successful spawning of captive stock of the prawn Penaeus monodon, or “sugpo”, to complete the life cycle and produce a viable F1 generation of larvae. Gonadal development was induced ...
Breeding and larval rearing of the rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus (Bloch)
(Elsevier, 1985)
Females of Siganus guttatus reared to sexual maturity in canvas tanks were induced to spawn by using human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG, Ayerst) at 500 IU/fish or about 2 IU/g body weight. The amount of HCG used depended ...
Artificial diets for milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), fry reared in seawater
(Elsevier, 1988)
Milkfish fry obtained from the wild (0.009 g body weight, 10 mm total length) were stocked at 200 individuals in each of 18 fiberglass tanks containing 30 l of filtered aerated seawater. Mean salinity and temperature were ...
Quantitative lysine requirement of milkfish (Chanos chanos) juveniles
(Elsevier, 1990)
A feeding experiment was conducted to determine the quantitative dietary requirement of milkfish juveniles for lysine. Milkfish (Chanoschanos Forsskal) of mean weight 5.92±0.14 g were fed diets containing 7.0, 11.0, 15.0, ...
Polyculture of green mussels, brown mussels and oysters with shrimp control luminous bacterial disease in a simulated culture system
(Elsevier, 2007)
Shrimp mortality due to luminous bacteria has been a problem of the shrimp industry worldwide. Polyculture of shrimp with finfish, such as grouper, seabass, snapper, siganid, Tilapia hornorum, and the Genetically Improved ...
The effect of thyroxine on the larvae and fry of Sarotherodon niloticus L. (Tilapia nilotica)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of thyroxine (T<sub>4</sub>) (0.1 ppm; 0.3 ppm; 0.5 ppm) on Sarotherodon niloticus L. yolk sac larvae were studied after 4 weeks of treatment from hatching. T<sub>4</sub> at 0.5 ppm accelerated yolk resorption but ...
Effect of artificial diets on growth and survival of milkfish fry in fresh water
(Elsevier, 1983)
Wild milkfish fry (mean weight = 15 mg) were reared in fresh water for 5 weeks using four artificial dry diets, Moina, or blended water hyacinth leaves as feed. The fry fed with artificial diets attained 83–95% mean survival ...
