Milkfish, Chanos chanos
(CAB International Publishing, 2002)
This chapter reviews information on nutrient requirements, feeds and feeding practices of milkfish.
Nutrition and feeds
(Oceanic Institute, 1986)
Milkfish culture is gradually shifting from the traditional extensive aquaculture system, where in the fish depends mainly on natural food for growth, to semi=intensive or intensive culture systems in which additional ...
Hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Steroid hormone profiles accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish are described. There were no significant differences in levels of serum estradiol 17-β (E<sub>2</sub>) and testosterone (T) between immature male ...
Fry and fingerling collection and handling
(The Oceanic Institute, 1986)
A review is made of methods and practices of collection, storage, transport and acclimation of milkfish (Chanos chanos ) fry and fingerlings in various countries. Factors affecting catch and survival are examined.
Collection of naturally-spawned milkfish eggs in floating cages
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Natural spawnings of milkfish from floating cages were obtained from different stocks of 5-7 year-old milkfish in 1980, 1981, 1983 and 1985. The maximum number of eggs collected in 1980, using a series of 1-m diameter ...
Viability of milkfish eggs and larvae after simulated and actual transport
(American Fisheries Society, Physiology Section, 1996)
The viability of milkfish eggs and larvae after simulated and actual transport was investigated. Naturally-spawned milkfish eggs were collected and subjected to simulated or actual transport at early cleavage stage (stage ...
Economics of milkfish culture in the Philippines
(Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, South Pacific Aquaculture Development Project, 1990)
This paper discusses the costs and returns of three phases in milkfish culture as practiced in the Philippines namely: nursery; stunting or retarding the growth of milkfish fingerlings; and modular culture system.
The ...
Hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation in milkfish Chanos chanos Forsskal
(Nagoya University Corporation, 1987)
In spite of the economic importance of milkfish to the Southeast Asia, relatively little information is available on its reproductive biology and physiology. Milkfish has a prolonged juvenile phase undergoes first sexual ...
Development and characterization of nine novel microsatellite markers for the milkfish Chanos chanos
(Springer Verlag, 2015)
The milkfish, Chanos chanos, is an important aquaculture resource in Southeast Asia. Using NGS data, 72 microsatellite markers were developed. PCR product confirmation using agarose gel electrophoresis allowed the ...
Microbound larval feed as supplement to live food for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) larvae
(European Aquaculture Society, 1991)
Highly variable results using Brachionus as food for milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae may be related to: (1) relatively low content of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) in Brachionus and (2) inability of first feeding ...
