Size and diel differences in activity patterns of Metapenaeus ensis, Penaeus latisulcatus and P. merguiensis
(Taylor & Francis, 2000)
The nursery function of mangroves as shelter has been postulated to explain the positive correlation between shrimp catches and mangrove area. This study was undertaken to document shelter use and other activities in ...
Collection of the clam Anodontia edentula in mangrove habitats in Panay and Guimaras, central Philippines
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2002)
The mangrove clam Anodontia edentula is highly prized in the Philippines for its flavor and large size. Because this infaunal species is found down to one meter deep in mangrove areas, harvesting the clam reportedly damages ...
Growth and survival of oyster Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932): A comparison of wild and hatchery-bred spat in grow-out culture
(Elsevier, 2020-12-25)
Oyster farming is an important industry both in developed and developing countries. The high demand for oysters has caused overexploitation of natural stocks. This led to dwindling spat fall and unstable production. This ...
Nursery and grow-out culture of the abalone Haliotis asinina on a reef flat: A comparison of growth and survival using different culture containers
(Elsevier, 2021-08)
The study was conducted to compare four different culture containers [cage, recycled oil container, tray (control), and tube] in the nursery and grow-out culture of the abalone Haliotis asinina on a reef flat. For nursery ...
The synergistic impacts of anthropogenic stressors and COVID-19 on aquaculture: A current global perspective
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-02)
The rapid, global spread of COVID-19, and the measures intended to limit or slow its propagation, are having major impacts on diverse sectors of society. Notably, these impacts are occurring in the context of other ...

(Springer, 2021-02-04)
Abalone are among the most important fishery resources with high commercial values worldwide, with Haliotis asinina being the most in demand and widely studied species in the Philippines. Abalone culture in the country ...
Producing young, single and meaty oyster Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932) in grow‐out culture using pouches suspended from rafts
(Wiley, 2021-06-11)
Growth and survival of the slipper oyster <i>Crassostrea iredalei</i> using traditional (tires and oyster shells) and new methods (pouches and trays) suspended from floating rafts were compared. After six months of grow-out ...
Single and mixed species of microalgae as larval food for the tropical sea cucumber Holothuria scabra
(Springer, 2021-05-31)
Different microalgae as larval food for Holothuria scabra, a high-value sea cucumber species with hatchery technology continually being refined to improve production, were studied. Two experiments were conducted to determine ...
Elemental sulfur in the gills of the mangrove mud clam Anodontia edentula (Family Lucinidae)
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2000)
Different sizes of the mangrove mud clam <i>Anodontia edentula</i> were collected from the mangroves in Brgy. San Roque in Estancia, Iloilo, central Philippines, and the mantle, gill, and foot tissues were analyzed for ...
Settlement of oyster Magallana bilineata (Röding, 1798) spat in the natural environment: Seasonality and substrate texture preference
(Malacological Society of Australasia; Society for the Study of Molluscan Diversity; Taylor and Francis, 2022-05-12)
This study determined the seasonality of Magallana bilineata spat settlement in a natural oyster bed and established surface texture preference of competent larvae by comparing the numbers of spat settling on the smooth ...
