Country report: Philippines
(International Development Research Centre, 1982)
Natural populations of oysters and mussels have long been gathered for food by coastal communities in the Philippines, and bivalve farming began in early 1900. The first farms were no more than a series of bamboo poles ...
Comparison of commercial Spirulina, live Navicula sp. and Chaetoceros calcitrans concentrate as settlement cues for sandfish, Holothuria scabra
(Springer, 2022-05-23)
The settlement of sea cucumbers is a crucial phase of larval development because the highest mortality occurs at this stage. Substrates and cues are commonly used to induce larval settlement. Commercial algae and live ...
Use of rotifers-fed microalgal paste in the seed production of mangrove crab Scylla serrata in the Philippines
(Springer, 2022-09-09)
Despite the progress in the production of artificial diets for marine larvae, feeding during the early life stages of most aquaculture species still relies on live feeds such as rotifers. Advanced rotifer culture techniques ...
Simulated transport of silver therapon (Leiopotherapon plumbeus) fingerlings at different durations and loading densities: Effects on survival and water quality
(College of Agriculture and Food Science, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2024-06)
The silver therapon, Leiopotherapon plumbeus, is being promoted as a new species for aquaculture. However, information on the optimal conditions for the transport of this species for grow-out culture needs to be established ...
Field evaluation of hydrogen peroxide bath technique for controlling sea lice (Lepeoptheirus spinifer) infestation in snubnose pompano (Trachinotus blochii)
(Elsevier, 2024-08)
Sea lice infestations can pose significant challenges in the aquaculture sector, affecting fish health and overall production. In the search for effective and eco-friendly solutions, hydrogen peroxide bath treatment has ...
High genetic diversity in anguillid glass eels across three Southeast Asian countries revealed through mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequences, with notes on population structure
(Elsevier, 2024-09)
Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of anguillid eels is crucial for effective management. In this study, we used the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D-loop marker to identify anguillid glass eels and ...
Morphological and genetic diversity assessment of freshwater prawns (Macrobrachium spp.) in the Cairawan river, Antique province, Panay island, Philippines
(National Fisheries Research and Development Institute, 2024)
Pichia kudriavzevii as feed additive in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) diet
(Oxford University Press; Applied Microbiology International, 2024-06)
Yeasts are unicellular eukaryotic microorganisms extensively employed in various applications, notably as an alternative source of protein in feeds, owing to their nutritional benefits. Despite their potential, marine and ...
Population genetic variation and genetic structure of widely distributed Japanese endemic freshwater crustaceans: Geothelphusa dehaani and Gammarus nipponensis
(2024)
Freshwater crustaceans, Geothelphusa dehaani (White 1847) and Gammarus nipponensis (Ueno 1940), are commonly found in rivers, streams and lakes in Japan. The distribution range of G. nipponensis is concentrated in the ...
Nutritional strategies for efficient reproductive performance of captive Indian white prawn, Penaeus indicus (H. Milne Edwards, 1837)
(2021-08)
Broodstock nutrition in penaeid is a vital component of a successful hatchery operation, however, there are still gaps in our present understanding of the nutrient requirements and strategies to optimize successful seed ...
