Milkfish aquaculture in the Philippines: An overview
(National Taiwan University; The Fisheries Society of Taiwan; Asian Fisheries Society; World Aquaculture Society, 2010)
Milkfish farming has been, and will remain the backbone of Philippine aquaculture. To date, over 260,000 ha of brackishwater ponds, 6, 700 ha of freshwater pens and about 500 ha of marine pens and cages are used to culture ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Survival and growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) larvae reared on larval feeds as supplement to live food
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)
Problems associated with hormonal induction of gonad development in milkfish (Chanos chanos)
(Hong Kong University Press, 1985)
Recent developments in milkfish breeeding include succesful induced spawning of wild<sup>1,2</sup> and captive<sup>3-5</sup> fish and spontaneous spawning of broodstock.<sup>6</sup> Gravid spawners, however, are available ...
Studies on breeding and seed production of the new species of fish with high commercial value
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2001)
Aquaculture contributes significantly to food production and provides the means to generate increased revenue for countries in Southeast Asia. As the catch from the capture fisheries stagnate and population growth rate in ...
Development of larval diets for milkfish (Chanos chanos)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2000)
This study aimed to develop nutritionally balanced and costeffective processed diets for milkfish larvae (Chanos chanos). Two larval diets (feed A and feed B) were formulated and prepared to contain 45% protein and 10% ...
Natural spawning, egg and fry production of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), broodstock reared in concrete tanks
(Blackwell Publishing, 1994)
Gonadal maturation, rematuration, and spawning of nine- (1982 stock) and ten-year-old (1981 stock) milkfish reared in 150 and 200 m<sup>3</sup> concrete tanks were observed in 1990 and 1991. From 23 September to 9 November ...
