Shrimp aquaculture: the Philippine experience
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
An overview is presented of the shrimp farming industry in the Philippines, noting that it was established as brackish-water aquaculture as early as 1521, although it took until the 1970s to take off, blooming during the ...
The environmental effects of aquaculture with emphasis on the intensive prawn farming in the Philippines.
(The Economic Society of Thailand, 1993)
Bacterial exoskeletal lesions of the tiger prawn Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Tank- and pond-reared Penaeus monodon with exoskeletal lesions were examined. The incidence rate was up to 36% for broodstock in concrete tanks and to 20% for pond-reared prawns. The increase in disease incidence was related ...
Current status of prawn farming and prawn health management in the Philippines.
(Aquatic Animal Health Research Institute, 1994)
Studies on the sources of luminescent Vibrio harveyi in Penaeus monodon hatcheries
(Asian Fisheries Society, Fish Health Section, 1992)
One of the major problems in the otherwise highly successful Penaeus monodon hatchery industry in the Philippines is the occurrence of luminescent bacterial disease due to Vibrio harveyi. The possible sources of the bacteria ...
Protein and dry matter digestibility of feedstuffs in complete diets for Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1997)
The digestibilities of animal and plant protein sources were determined for P. monodon (30 ~ 40 g wet weight). Protein sources were incorporated in complete diets containing the indicator, chromic oxide at 1.8%. Casein, ...
Bacterial diseases of penaeid shrimps: An Asian view
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 1995)
In the past 5 Yr, bacterial diseases have become limiting factors in penaeid culture systems, their effects becoming directly proportional to the growth of the industry in terms of severity and imoact. Although eight ...

Mineral requirements of Penaeids
(Institut Francais de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer, 1990)
Marine shrimps absorb minerals from their aquatic environment aside from the minerals that come from the food they eat. Thus, the dietary requirement of shrimps for certain minerals will depend on the amounts and availability ...
Will microbial manipulation sustain the ecological balance in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) hatcheries?
(National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 1998)
A shift in preferred methods employed to contain bacterial diseases in the hatchery phase of shrimp culture has resulted largely from the unsuccessful control by and deleterious effects of chemotherapy. Manipulation of ...
