Transport of Scylla serrata megalopae at various densities and durations
(Elsevier, 2000)
The optimal conditions for transport of Scylla serrata megalopae were determined. Loading densities of 50, 100 and 150 ind l<sup>−1</sup> of hatchery-reared megalopae were studied over a 6-h simulated transport, including ...
Occurrence and histopathogenesis of a didymozoid trematode (Gonapodasmius epinepheli) in pond-reared orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides
(Elsevier, 2001)
A didymozoid trematode encapsulated in the gills of orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides Hamilton, was observed in October 1997 and September 1999 among pond-reared fish in the Philippines. Capsule prevalence was ...
Economic evaluation of grow-out diets for Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) production
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 2000)
The economic feasibility of four grow-out diets for the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus was evaluated on a 1000 m<sup>2</sup>/crop basis. Hatchery-bred catfish juveniles with mean body weight (MBW) of 3.6 g and mean ...
Fatty acid composition of five candidate aquaculture species in Central Philippines
(Elsevier, 2004)
Fatty acid composition was determined in five candidate aquaculture species, mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus), two rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus and S. canaliculatus), coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus) ...
Price dynamics and cointegration in the major markets of aquaculture species in the Philippines
(Southeast Asian Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture, 2009)
This study explored the interdependencies of aquaculture markets in the Philippines by establishing price cointegration between wholesale and retail prices of three major species commonly farmed in the country, i.e., ...
Diurnal feeding pattern and gut content of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskål, 1775) cultured semi-intensively during the wet and dry season in brackish ponds in the Philippines
(Blackwell Publishing, 2008)
To improve feeding management and reduce feed cost in semi-intensive grow-out culture of milkfish (Chanos chanos, Forsskål 1775) in brackish ponds, the relative shares of natural food (NF) and supplemental feed (SF) ingested ...
Coastal ecosystem-based management with nonlinear ecological functions and values
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2008)
A common assumption is that ecosystem services respond linearly to changes in habitat size. This assumption leads frequently to an “all or none” choice of either preserving coastal habitats of converting them to human use. ...
Biodegradition of monochloroacetic acid by a presumptive Pseudomonas sp. strain R1 bacterium isolated from Malaysian paddy (rice) field
(Asian Network for Scientific Information, 2008)
A bacterial strain tentatively identified as Pseudomonas sp. R1 was isolated from a paddy (rice) field that could degrade monochloroacetic acid (MCA) for concentrations ranging from 5 to 40 mM. Quantitative agreement between ...
Purification and properties of a non-stereospecific dehalogenase enzyme E (DehE) from Methylobacterium sp. HJ1
(Academic Journals, 2008)
The bacterial isolate HJ1, which was identified as a Methylobacterium sp., grew on 2, 2-dichloropropionic acid as the sole carbon source and produced a 2-haloalkanoic acid hydrolytic dehalogenase. This non-stereospecific ...
In-vitro evaluation of some commercial probiotics used in the grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon: Effect on bacterial parameters
(Research India Publications, 2007)
This study was conducted to evaluate 8 commercial probiotic products being marketed for the grow-out culture of the tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon and the “SEAFDEC Indigenous Probiotic”. Bacterial parameters investigated ...
