Shrimp diseases in the Philippines: a historical perspective of research, training and development.
(Department of Marine Biology, Ocean University of Qingdao, 1998)
Pioneering research on shrimp diseases in the Philippines was spearheaded at the Aquaculture Department of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center at Tigbauan, Iloilo in 1975. Investigations initially covered ...
Urease activity in soybean meal: effect on its nutritional quality and on growth and survival of Penaeus monodon juveniles.
(International Foundation for Science, 1998)
Based on the results of a survey conducted on the urease activity (UA) in commercial shrimp feed containing soybean meal (SBM) (0.00-29. 70 ppm UA), a study was carried out to determine the effects of different heat ...
Enrichment of live food with essential fatty acids and vitamin C: effects on milkfish (Chanos chanos) larval performance
(Elsevier, 1998)
The effects of essential fatty acids (EFA) and vitamin C-enriched live food on growth, survival, resistance to salinity stress and incidence of deformity in milkfish larvae reared in tanks were investigated. Larvae were ...
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 ...
Major viral and bacterial disease problems in shrimp culture
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, 1998)
Major disease problems particularly viral and bacterial in origin have resulted in significant decline in the production of farmed shrimps worldwide.
The major diseases of viral and bacterial origins are listed and ...
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 ...
Zooplankton distribution during winter using Two-Way Indicator Species Analysis (TWINSPAN) and Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CANOCO).
(1998)
Spatial distribution and community structure of zooplankton species and its relationships with the environmental parameters (temperature, salinity, and turbidity and phytoplankton distribution) in some sandbanks of the ...
Ecological considerations in milkfish farming in marine pens and cages in the Philippines
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 1998)
Milkfish farming in the Philippines has a long history and great importance, being widely regarded as the way to domestic food security. But the industry has faced new challenges in the past decade, with the advent of many ...
Nature's subsidies to shrimp and salmon farming
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1998)
Although many fisheries stocks have declined precipitously throughout the world, fish farming--and especially shrimp and salmon farming--has boomed. The increasingly large scale of these enterprises is now having unforeseen ...
Sensitivity of fertilized milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs to mechanical shock and simulated transport
(Elsevier, 1998)
Naturally-spawned milkfish eggs are routinely subjected to physical manipulation during collection and transport. To avoid unnecessary mortalities, sensitivity of milkfish eggs to mechanical shock was determined at different ...
