Series: Asia-Pacific Marine Finfish Aquaculture Network; Publication No. 2005–01
A guide to small-scale marine finfish hatchery technology
(Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific, 2005)
Recent improvements in hatchery production technology for high-value marine finfish species such as groupers have led to an increased interest in setting up hatcheries to produce fingerlings for aquaculture. Small-scale ...
Antimicrobial resistance in bacteria isolated from aquaculture environments in the Philippines
(ASIARESIST, 2005)
Antibiotics have been used in aquaculture as feed additives to promote growth and added in water to prevent disease occurrence. Therapeutic doses are used to treat diseases. Long-term use and misuse of antibiotics may ...
Studies on the use of copepods in the semi-intensive seed production of grouper Epinephelus coioides
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Previous studies by the authors have shown the feasibility of using copepods in the semi-intensive seed production of grouper Epinephelus coioides. Early-stage E. coioides larvae preferred to ingest copepod nauplii over ...
Qualitative and quantitative comparison of bacterial flora associated with hatchery-reared and wild-caught shrimp postlarvae
(ASIARESIST, 2005)
Because of high mortality recorded in pond-reared shrimps due to luminescent vibriosis infection, a study was conducted to determine if postlarvae (PLs) could be major sources of luminescent bacteria (LB). Batches of ...
Variation of otolith strontium concentration in elongate surgeonfish, Acanthurus mata
(Ite-iba Inc., 2005)
The Elongate surgeonfish Acanthurus mata caught from the sea and feeding in the milkfish’s net cages separated from wild fish were measured for their otolith strontium (Sr) concentration using an wave-length dispersive ...
Mangroves, fishponds, and the quest for sustainability
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2005)
Aquaculture, the farming of shrimp and other useful aquatic and marine plants and animals in artificially confined and tended ponds, pens, and cages, ranks as a phenomenal success story in global food production. In 1975, ...
Anti-luminous Vibrio factors associated with the ‘green water’ grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 2005)
The ability of the “green water” grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon to prevent outbreaks of Luminous Vibriosis was investigated by screening associated isolates of bacteria, fungi, phytoplankton and fish ...
Cell growth, effect of filtrate and nutritive value of the tropical Prasinophyte Tetraselmis tetrathele (Butcher) at different phases of culture
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
A local algal isolate Tetraselmis tetrathele was studied to determine the suitable levels of three growth factors (nutrient medium, light intensity and photoperiod) for mass culture. Significantly higher population cell ...
Experimental transmission of hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) infection in Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2005)
Hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) infection in penaeid shrimps was first reported in various countries of the Asia-Pacific region in mid-1980. The virus affects the hepatopancreas of postlarvae and juveniles, usually leading ...
Seabream GnRH: partial cDNA cloning, localization and stage-dependent expression in the ovary of snake head murrel, Channa striatus
(Springer Verlag, 2005)
Vertebrate reproduction is under the neuroendocrine control of the hypothalamic decapeptide GnRH which synchronizes various reproductive events and influences other reproduction related aspects like spawning behavior and ...
