Ration reduction, integrated multitrophic aquaculture (milkfish-seaweed-sea cucumber) and value-added products to improve incomes and reduce the ecological footprint of milkfish culture in the Philippines
(AquaFish Collaborative Research Support Program, Oregon State University, 2012)
In the Philippines, cage culture of milkfish in marine environments is increasing. The practice uses high stocking densities, with significantly greater inputs of artificial feeds which more often than not, have led to ...
Evolution of genome size within the genus Haliotis (Vetigastropoda: Haliotidae)
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2018)
Genome size (C-value) and the percentage of adenine and thymine nucleotides in the genome (AT content) are fundamental characteristics of every species, and very important parameters in molecular cytogenetic and phylogenic ...
Hatchery protocol for silver therapon (Leiopotherapon plumbeus, Kner 1864)
(Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines, 2016-09-05)
The hatchery protocol for silver therapon (Leiopotherapon plumbeus, Kner 1864) in outdoor tanks is disclosed. The process includes timed provision of preferred natural food commensurate with the age of larvae, pre-conditioning ...
Alternative feeding strategies to improve milkfish production efficiency in the Philippines
(AquaFish Collaborative Research Support Program, Oregon State University, 2010)
In the Philippines, cage culture of milkfish in marine environments is increasing. The practice uses high stocking densities, with significantly greater inputs of artificial feeds which more often than not, has led to ...
Clearance rates and ingestion efficiency of the Japanese scallop Patinopecten yessoensis
(Plankton Society of Japan, 2013)
In coastal ecosystems, variations in food quantity may have significant effects on the clearance and ingestion rates of suspension-feeding bivalves. In this study, clearance rates and ingestion efficiencies were determined ...

(World Bank, 2016)
This report is part of a national overview of agricultural pollution in the Philippines, commissioned by the World Bank. The overview consists of three ‘chapters’ on the crops, livestock, and fisheries sub-sectors, and a ...
Sustainable milkfish production in marine fish cages through strong government support and effective public-private partnerships: a case study from Panabo City Mariculture Park in Davao del Norte, Philippines
(FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, 2016)
This case study presents the successful practice of sustainable intensification of milkfish aquaculture in marine fish cages under semi-intensive grow-out conditions in the Panabo City Mariculture Park (PCMP) in Davao del ...

(高知大学大学院黒潮圏海洋科学研究科, 2018)
This paper presents the nature of sea cucumber fishery in Palawan, Philippines with information on gathering practices, commonly traded species and secondary accounts on wild populations. Current issues on sea cucumber ...
The genetic improvement of farmed tilapias project: Impact and lessons learned
(Springer, 2010)
In response to challenges that the developing world confront on food security and malnutrition, the last two decades have witnessed increased efforts in genetic improvement to enhance production traits of commercially ...
Protein concentrate of Ulva intestinalis (Chlorophyta, Ulvaceae) could replace soybean meal in the diet of Oreochromis niloticus fry
(Bioflux, 2014)
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing soybean meal with the protein concentrate of Ulva intestinalis (UPC) in the diet of juvenile Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. Four experimental diets ...
