Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulating Bacillus spp. improve the survival, growth and robustness of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius, 1798) postlarvae
(Elsevier, 2014)
Low larval survival resulting from suboptimal culture conditions and luminous vibriosis poses a major problem for the larviculture of penaeid shrimp. In this study, a poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulating mixed bacterial ...
Optimum low salinity to reduce cannibalism and improve survival of the larvae of freshwater African catfish Clarias gariepinus
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
The freshwater African catfish Clarias gariepinus is carnivorous and cannibalistic even during the larval and juvenile stages and this behavior causes economic losses in aquaculture. This study examined for the first time ...
Histological observations on the rearing of milkfish, Chanos chanos, fry using different diets
(Blackwell Publishing, 1986)
Six different diets, commonly used in the Philippines for rearing milkfish, Chanos chanos, try, were tested by means of growth, survival and histology. These diets included:
a) live food (Artemia nauplii); b) two different ...
Optimum stocking density and tank size for larval rearing of the grouper, Epinephelus coioides
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1997)
The effect of stocking of stocking density and tank size on early growth and survival of grouper, Epinephelus coioides (=suillus) larvae were determined. In one experiment, larvae were stocked in 500L tanks at densities ...
Interactive effects of vitamin C and E supplementation on growth performance, fatty acid composition and reduction of oxidative stress in juvenile Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus fed dietary oxidized fish oil
(Elsevier, 2014)
A study was conducted to determine the interactive effects of vitamin C (VC) and E (VE) supplementation on growth, fatty acid composition and oxidative status of Japanese flounder juveniles. Fish (initial average body ...
Tolerance of seahorse Hippocampus kuda (Bleeker) juveniles to various salinities
(Blackwell Publishing, 2003)
In line with current conservation efforts, some success in the captive breeding of the seahorse Hippocampus kuda (Teleostei: Syngnathidae) has been achieved. To evaluate the salinity tolerance of these hatchery-bred ...
Improved growth performance of Gracilariopsis heteroclada via short-term nitrogen enrichment
(De Gruyter, 2015)
This study examined the effect of short-term nitrogen (N) enrichment on Gracilariopsis heteroclada growth and agar quality. Planting materials were soaked in different concentrations of ammonium chloride (NH<sub>4</sub>Cl) ...
Larval and early juvenile development of silver therapon, Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Terapontidae), reared in mesocosms
(Szczecińskie Towarzystwo Naukowe, 2017)
The silver therapon, Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner, 1864), is an endemic and economically important freshwater food fish in the Philippines. The natural populations of this species have been declining during the past years, ...
Cloning of mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) growth hormone cDNA and mRNA expression during early development
(University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013)
Growth hormone regulates growth and development in vertebrates. As a first step to understand the role of growth hormone in the regulation of growth and development of the mangrove red snapper Lutjanus argentimaculatus, ...
Illuminated-cage nursery of the Asian sea bass, Lates calcarifer Bloch, (Centropomidae): effects of initial body size and stocking density
(Asian Fisheries Society; World Aquaculture Society - Southeast Asian Chapter, 2000)
This study was conducted to determine the appropriate initial body size and the corresponding stocking density of sea bass, Lates calcarifer, during nursery rearing in illuminated cages. Hatchery-produced sea bass fry of ...
