Dietary lipid requirement of whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei juveniles cultured in biofloc system
(Wiley, 2020-06)
An eight-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the contribution of biofloc on dietary lipid requirement in whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Five diets with graded levels of dietary lipid (45, 60, 90, 120 and ...
Mortality of pond-cultured Litopenaeus vannamei associated with acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) and white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection in the Philippines
(Japanese Society of Fish Pathology, 2017)
Mortalities of up to 60% were observed in pond-cultured Litopenaeus vannamei in Bohol, Philippines. Histopathological examination revealed typical acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) pathology. PCR test generated ...
Sensory systems and feeding behaviour of the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and the marine whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei
(Borneo Marine Research Institute, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 2017)
Information on the sensory basis of shrimp feeding provides the means for assessment of the effectiveness of food items in terms of smell, taste, size, and colour. This chapter summarizes information about the sensory basis ...
Abdominal segment deformity syndrome (asds) and fused body segment deformity (fbsd) in cultured Penaeus indicus
(Elsevier, 2017)
The abdominal segment deformity disease (ASDD) is a new shrimp disease reported only in cultured Penaeus vannamei in Thailand. Shrimp with ASDD have deformed abdominal segment, jagged gut line and bumpy surfaces. Similar ...
Cage culture of the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) at different stocking densities in a shallow eutrophic lake
(Blackwell Publishing, 2009)
Postlarvae of Litopenaeus vannamei were acclimated and stocked in lake-based cages at the following stocking densities: 10, 20, 30 and 40 shrimp m<sup>−2</sup>. Another set of shrimp was stocked in concrete tanks as reference ...
Application of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB)-based biodegradable plastic as artificial substratum in Litopenaeus vannamei culture
(Springer, 2019)
The use of artificial substratum made out of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) based biodegradable plastic for penaeid shrimp culture was investigated for the first time. Provision of PHB substratum consisting of PHB type P209 ...
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) outbreaks in Penaeus vannamei and P. monodon cultured in the Philippines
(Inter Research, 2015)
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) has recently emerged as a serious disease of cultured shrimp. It has also been described as early mortality syndrome (EMS) due to mass mortalities occurring within 20 to 30 ...
Immune response of Litopenaeus vannamei juveniles immersed in Gracilariopsis heteroclada hot-water extract
(Research Unit of Philippine Science High School - Western Visayas Campus, 2019)
The emergence of diseases such as Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease and White Spot Syndrome has compelled researchers in shrimp aquaculture to develop more innovative methods in improving shrimp health management for ...
Determination of poly‐β‐hydroxybutyrate assimilation by postlarval whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei using stable 13C isotope tracing
(Wiley, 2021-02)
A preliminary study was conducted to demonstrate fate of the bacterial storage compound poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) once ingested and degraded in vivo in crustaceans. The 2% supplementation of <sup>13</sup>C-labeled ...
Culture guide of Penaeus vannamei using pond liner to mitigate the effects of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND)
(Biosolutions International Corporation, 2016)
This manual aims to share the methodologies leading to the success of shrimp farming operations. It is a work in progress to be regularly updated as new techniques are developed to deal with future challenges and diseases ...
