Reproductive performance of pond-sourced Scylla serrata fed various broodstock diets
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
Feeding experiments were conducted to determine the effect of diet on reproduction of pond-sourced unablated and ablated Scylla serrrata broodstock. Broodstock were fed either natural food (T1) consisting of mussel, squid, ...
Larval rearing of mud crab (Scylla): What lies ahead
(Elsevier, 2018)
The increasing global demand for mud crabs (genus Scylla) and threats to the wild populations highlight the urgency of fully rearing them in captivity. Despite considerable progress in mud crab production, most crab farms ...
Physiological and avoidance responses of juvenile mud crab Scylla serrata to mercury
(Bioflux, 2014)
The physiological and avoidance responses of juvenile mud crab Scylla serrata to mercury was evaluated by determining mortality using a renewal-type acute toxicity test and assessing crabs’ ability to avoid toxic concentrations. ...
Influence of salinity on survival and molting in early stages of three species of Scylla crabs
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology (SIAMB), 2011)
Early instars of three mud crab Scylla species were reared in different salinities and survival and growth were compared. Scylla olivacea were reared in salinities of 12, 16, 20, 24, and 32 g/l (control). Scylla serrata ...
Midgut gland as monitor organ for the nutritional value of diets in Penaeus monodon (Decapoda)
(Elsevier, 1985)
Midgut gland cells of Penaeus monodon postlarvae were investigated by electron microscopy after starvation and refeeding with different diets.
Well nourished postlarvae could be starved for 5 days without irreversible ...
Extension of nursery culture of Scylla serrata (Forsskål) juveniles in net cages and ponds
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
To address the preference of mud crab farmers for larger size Scylla serrata juveniles (5.0–10 g body weight or BW; 3.0–5.0 cm internal carapace width or ICW), a study was conducted to compare the growth and survival of ...
Quality assessment of newly hatched mud crab, Scylla serrata, larvae
(Wiley, 2018)
Starvation and exposure to formalin were investigated as possible stress tests for evaluating the quality of mud crab, Scylla serrata, larvae. For the starvation stress test, newly hatched zoeae stocked in 150-ml containers ...
The effects of diets on reproductive performance of eyestalk ablated and intact mud crab Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2000)
The reproductive performance of female mud crabs was evaluated as affected by various diets. Dietary treatments were as follows: D<sub>1</sub> — natural diet (mussel meat, squid, trash fish); D<sub>2</sub> — combination ...
Domestication of the mud crab Scylla serrata
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
The significant decrease in wild mud crab population highlights the need to manage the resources and domesticate crabs. This paper presents the initial results of the domestication of mud crab Scylla serrata aimed at ...
Ovarian maturation stages of the mud crab Scylla serrata
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
Ovarian maturation in adult wild-sourced and pond-grown Scylla serrata (Forsskål) was determined based on gross morphology and histological appearance. There were no significant differences noted in the histological features ...
