(University of the Philippines Visayas, 2022)
The sustainable livelihood approach (SLA) is a tool for evaluating livelihood strategies that utilize assets categorized as environmental, human, physical, financial and social assets. In this study, the SLA was applied ...
Development of the digestive tract of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal): Histology and histochemistry
(Elsevier, 1987)
The digestive tract of the newly hatched milkfish larva is a simple undifferentiated tube. Three days after hatching, differentiation of the esophagus begins with development of mucous-secreting cells. At this time, the ...
Mercury levels in the sediment, water, and selected finfishes of Laguna Lake, the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1990)
Monthly samples of sediment, water and commercially important species of fish, primarily Oreochromis niloticus and Chanos chanos , plus a few other species, were collected from the West Bay area of Laguna Lake, The Philippines ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
Water quality and holding capacity of intensive and semi-intensive milkfish (Chanos chanos) ponds
(Elsevier, 2003)
This study determined the holding capacity of semi-intensive and intensive milkfish ponds and water quality in relation to fish biomass and feed input. Six units of 1000 m<sup>2</sup> brackishwater ponds were used, three ...
Nitrogen and phosphorus digestibility and excretion of different-sized groups of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) fed formulated and natural food-based diets
(Blackwell Publishing, 2003)
This study determined the digestibility of nitrogen and phosphorus, and the excretion rate of different-sized groups of milkfish fed a commercial diet, a SEAFDEC formulated diet or lab-lab (natural food-based diet). Fish ...
Mass mortality of hatchery-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) caused by Amyloodinium ocellatum (Dinoflagellida)
(Elsevier, 2004)
Outbreaks of heavy infestation by the parasitic dinoflagellate Amyloodinium ocellatum in hatchery-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos) and mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) caused 100% mortality events in hatcheries ...
