Antibacterial activity of tilapia Tilapia hornorum against Vibrio harveyi
(Elsevier, 2004)
Disease due to luminous Vibrio has been a major problem of the shrimp industry. Different technologies have been introduced to control the disease. One of the techniques reported to work against luminous bacteria in the ...
Enhancing nonspecific immune response of grouper, Epinephelus coioides using levamizole as immunostimulant
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 2008)
The use of levamisole as an alternative approach to disease prevention and control has been resorted to in aquaculture. Its immunomodulatory effect in several fish species is well documented but its effect on grouper, ...
A farmer-oriented Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., breed improvement in the Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Opportunities for developing small-scale tilapia industry in the Philippines is hampered by the shortage of good-quality seeds and broodstock. Most small-scale farmers are dependent on distribution centres for improved ...
Effect of Epinephelus coioides, Chanos chanos, and GIFT tilapia in polyculture with Penaeus monodon on the growth of the luminous bacteria Vibrio harveyi
(Elsevier, 2006)
Studies have shown that the presence of Tilapia hornorum hybrid has antibacterial effect against luminous bacteria. The present study aims to determine the effect of different fish species such as grouper, milkfish and ...
Effect of aquaculture on world fish supplies
(Nature Publishing Group, 2000)
Global production of farmed fish and shellfish has more than doubled in the past 15 years. Many people believe that such growth relieves pressure on ocean fisheries, but the opposite is true for some types of aquaculture. ...
Effect of shrimp biomass and feeding on the anti-Vibrio harveyi activity of Tilapia sp. in a simulated shrimp–tilapia polyculture system
(Elsevier, 2006)
The efficiency of Tilapia hornorum to control luminous bacteria in a simulated shrimp farm environment has been reported. However, the effects of different factors such as feed input and the shrimp biomass were not taken ...
Characterization of betanodaviruses in the Philippines
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2008)
Viral nervous necrosis caused by betanodaviruses is one of the most devastating diseases in cultured marine finfish. In the Philippines, mass mortalities occurred in sea bass, Lates calcarifer larvae and grouper, Epinephelus ...
Effect of stunting of juvenile bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis (Richardson) on compensatory growth and reproduction
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
The study was conducted to determine if stunting of young bighead carp Aristichtys nobilis (Richardson) would affect subsequent growth and reproduction. Juveniles (3 g each) were stocked directly in cages (control) in a ...
Susceptibility of fish species cultured in mangrove brackish area to piscine nodavirus
(Tropical Agricultural Research Centre, 2007)
Susceptibility of orange-spotted grouper Epinephelus coioides, Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer, mangrove red snapper Lutjanus argentimaculatus, milkfish Chanos chanos, and rabbitfish Siganus guttatus to piscine nodavirus ...
Genetic diversity in farmed Asian Nile and red hybrid tilapia stocks evaluated from microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA analysis
(Elsevier, 2004)
We analyzed microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (mtDNA-RFLP) in two domesticated (NIFI and Israel) and four genetically improved (GIFT, GMT, FAC-selected and SEAFDEC-selected) Nile ...
