Mangroves as nurseries: Shrimp populations in mangrove and non-mangrove habitats
(Elsevier, 1998)
A total of 4845 penaeids belonging to nine species—Metapenaeus anchistus, M. ensis, M. moyebi, M. philippinensis, Penaeus merguiensis, P. monodon, P. semisulcatus, P. latisulcatus and Metapenaeopsis palmensis—were collected ...
Supplemental feeding of Penaeus monodon juveniles with diets containing various levels of defatted soybean meal
(Elsevier, 1990)
Varying levels of defattedsoybeanmeal DSM (15, 25, 35, 45 and 55%) in supplementaldiets with approximately 40% crude protein and 10% crude fat were fed to tiger prawn juveniles in 1 m×1 m×1 m net cages set on the bottom ...
Requirements of juvenile marine shrimp, Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) for lysine and arginine
(Elsevier, 1998)
Feeding experiments were conducted using amino acid test diets to determine the dietary requirements of juvenile Penaeus monodon for lysine and arginine. Two sets of the test diets were prepared. The natural protein was ...
Organic pollution resulting from excess feed and metabolite build-up: Effect on Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Elsevier, 1990)
Penaeus monodon postlarvae, PL, with mean weight and mean total length of 0.57 mg and 6.5 mm respectively, were stocked in aerated aquaria at 20 litre<sup>−1</sup> of seawater. They were fed minced shrimp meat at rates of ...
Methionine requirement of juvenile tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1996)
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the dietary requirement of postlarval Penaeus monodon for the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Shrimp postlarvae (mean weight 21 ± 0.3 mg) were reared in 40-1 ...
A practical method of extracting mimosine from ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves and its effect on survival and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
Soaking fresh ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves in tap water (1:1, v/v; or 50 g in 500 ml) for 30-48 hours with a water change after 24 hours extract atleast 90% of its mimosine, a toxic lysine derivative. This ...
Growth and survival of juvenile tiger shrimp fed diet where fish meal is partially replaced with papaya (Carica papaya L.) or camote (Ipomea batatas Lam.) leaf meal
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1995)
Fish meal is the major protein source in shrimp and fish diets but its continuous use would make it scarce and expensive. There are, however, potential substitutes like soybean or leaf meals. Papaya or camote leaf meals ...
Aflatoxin B1 contamination of shrimp feeds and its effect on growth and hepatopancreas of pre-adult Penaeus monodon
(Society of Chemical Industry, 1994)
A survey of aflatoxin B<sub>1</sub> (AFLB<sub>1</sub>) levels in commonly used commercial shrimp finisher feeds in the Philippines showed a various range of values from not detected to 120 μg kg<sup>−1</sup> using ...
L-ascorbyl-2-phosphate Mg as source of vitamin C for juvenile Penaeus monodon
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
Phosphated ascorbic acid (MAP), a stable vitamin C derivative, was used in practical diets for Penaeus monodon (wet weight, 126-254 mg) as a source of vitamin C. In Experiment I, the levels were from 0 to 1,500 ppm MAP. ...
Effect of streamer tags on survival and growth of juvenile tiger prawns, Penaeus monodon, under laboratory conditions
(CSIRO Publishing, 1992)
The effects of streamer tags and initial prawn size on survival and growth in 2-month- and 7-month-old pond-reared juveniles of Penaeus monodon Fabricius (11-30 mm carapace length, CL) were assessed under laboratory ...
