Influence of stocking density and fertilization regime on growth, survival and gross production of Penaeus monodon Fabricius in brackishwater ponds
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Twelve 0.1 ha earthen ponds were stocked at 3,500 or 7,000/ha with 1-month old nursery reared Penaeus monodon Fabricius (1.73 g). Fertilizer treatments were 125 kg chicken manure plus 4.1 kg diammonium phosphate (18-46-0) ...
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 ...
Mortalities of pond-cultured juvenile shrimp, Penaeus monodon, associated with dominance of luminescent vibrios in the rearing environment
(Elsevier, 1998)
Severe mortalities due to luminescent vibrios occurred in pond-cultured Penaeus monodon juveniles particularly in the first 45 days of culture. Luminescent vibriosis epizootics led to reduced shrimp production due to ...
Mortality in pond-cultured shrimp Penaeus monodon in the Philippines associated with Vibrio harveyi and white spot syndrome virus
(Japanese Society of Fish Pathology, 2003)
Heavy mortalities were observed among pond-cultured Penaeus monodon in the provinces of Bohol, Misamis Occidental, Lanao del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. Vibrio harveyi was isolated purely from the hepatopancreas ...
Bamboo back disease in tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2002)
This report describes bamboo back disease affecting Penaeus monodon in the Philippines. Affected and normal shrimps were processed for bacterial isolation and histopathology. Morphological changes in the external anatomy ...
A survey of chemical and biological products used in intensive prawn farms in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1993)
With attractive prawn export prices and the availability of hatchery fry and commercial feeds, Philippine aquaculture has experienced a shift from milkfish to prawn Penaeus monodon and an intensification from traditional ...
Effect of dietary astaxanthin and vitamin A on the reproductive performance of Penaeus monodon broodstock
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)
The reproductive performance of pond tiger shrimp given astaxanthin (100 mg·kg<sup>−1</sup>) and/or vitamin A (20 000 IU·kg<sup>−1</sup>) for 61 d in tanks was assessed in a 2 × 2 factorial experiment in a completely ...
Bacterial diseases in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture in the Philippines
(Japanese Society of Fish Pathology, 1998)
The hatchery system for Penaeus monodon evolved from the Japanese community culture system to the modified Galveston method and this shift in culture technique triggered the outbreak of diseases due to opportunistic bacteria. ...
Effect of salinity on hemolymph calcium concentration during the molt cycle of the prawn Penaeus monodon
(Springer Verlag, 1989)
Prawns (Penaeus monodon) were obtained from ponds in Iloilo, Philippines, in 1984 and 1985 and maintained in salinities from 8 to 44‰. Total hemolymph calcium was largely affected by molt stage and less so by salinity. A ...
Assimilation of aquatic macrophytes in Penaeus monodon
(Taylor & Francis, 1993)
The macrophytes Najas graminea and Ruppia maritima are common aquatic plants found in brackishwater ponds in the Philippines. The assimilation efficiencies of these plants by male and female Penaeus monodon (30-40 g wet ...
