Intermediate culture of chinese prawn without feeding in nursery ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The aim of the experiments is to find a new way to accomplish intermediate culture of the penaeid prawn in nursery ponds. Experiments have been carried out in prawn farms in Haiyang County, Shandong Province. Prawn fry ... -
An improved strategy for building brackishwater culture ponds with iron pyrite soils in mangrove swamps
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The problems associated with acid sulfate soil limit the potential utilization of vast coastal areas of mangrove swamps for brackishwater aquaculture. There is an estimated 4.8 million ha of mangrove area in the ASEAN ... -
Hepatopancreas cells as monitor cells for the nutritional value of prawn diets in aquaculture
; ; Quinitio, Emilia T.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The hepatopancreas is considered to be the central organ of metabolism in decapod Crustacea. It is a system of blind tubules consisting of four cell types. The E-cells at the summits of the tubules develop into R-cells ... -
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon postlarvae with different feeding regimes and stocking densities in earthen brackishwater nursery ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The effect of different stocking densities (50, 100 and 150/m2) and two feeding regimes (natural food, consisting mainly of lablab, and natural food plus artificial diet) on the growth and survival of Penaeus monodon ... -
Characterization of ovarian maturation stages in wild unablated Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)At least five wild-caught Penaeus monodon from various maturation stages (initially classified in vivo as 0, I, II, III, IV, V) were measured, weighed and dissected for histological and histochemical studies. The anterior ... -
Seasonal abundance of Penaeid prawn seed in the Ennore estuary, Madras in relation to hydrography and lunar phase
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)An estimate of seed resources in the coastline, estuarine, and backwater bodies is an important prerequisite for developing prawn farming. A one-year (1983) survey on penaeid seed, based on tide and lunar periodicity, ... -
Effect of carrageenan micro-binded diet on the larval stages of Penaeus indicus
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)At present, most hatcheries depend on live food like diatoms, Chlorella, rotifer and brine shrimp to rear the larval stages of various penaeid species. Mass production of live feed requires much space (tanks) and labor, ... -
Effect of various levels of squid protein on growth and some biochemical parameters of Penaeus japonicus juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)An unknown growth factor previously suspected in squid meal was found in the protein fraction of squid (Loligo vulgaris). It is clearly different from hydro-alcohol-soluble feed attractants that are also present in squid ... -
Staggered harvesting as a method of increasing prawn production with supplemental feeding
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Prawns, like any other animals, exhibit dissimilarities in growth rates. As they grow, a wide range of body weight distribution from the same population is observed. Staggered harvesting method is commonly practised in ... -
Growth and productivity of juvenile banana prawns, Penaeus merguiensis in natural and laboratory systems
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Growth and survival of Penaeus merguiensis juveniles were measured over four years in the Norman River estuary, south-eastern Gulf of Carpentaria. Growth in carapace length for the first 8-9 weeks after settlement was ... -
Evaluation of artificial feeds for shrimp (Penaeus monodon) production in brackishwater ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The experiment was conducted in fifteen 500-m2 brackishwater ponds to determine the response of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed with various artificial diets. Five treatments with three replicates each were: two commercial ... -
Heterotrophic bacteria associated with eggs and larvae of Penaeus indicus in a hatchery system
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Total viable aerobic heterotrophic bacteria (THB) associated with egg, nauplius, zoea, mysis and postlarva of Penaeus indicus and seawater in a hatchery system were estimated for three years from 1981 to 1984. The bacterial ... -
Imperatives for the future development of prawn culture in the Cochin backwater system (Kerala, India)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)A traditional system of prawn culture practised in the Cochin Backwater System, the largest backwater system in Kerala State, has an estimated yield of 4,000 tons from about 4,500 ha. Governmental investments to encourage ... -
The integrated use of artemia in shrimp farming
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The use of freshly hatched Artemia nauplii in penaeid hatcheries is a common practice, although a broader application of Artemia in shrimp farming is gaining more and more interest. In this regard, an integrated use of ... -
A preliminary economic analysis for extensive and semi-intensive shrimp culture in South Carolina, U.S.A.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)South Carolina has some 28,500 ha of impounded coastal wetlands. These impoundments are remnants of the rice culture industry of the 19th century and are now of interest for waterflow management and possibly aquaculture. ... -
Induction to ovary maturation by ablation in the pink shrimp Penaeus notialis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)A partial unilateral ablation was carried out on immature females of the pink shrimp Penaeus notialis. They were maintained in 1,600 ℓ asbestos-cement tanks together with apparently mature males, not submitted to ... -
Recruitment of postlarval penaeid prawns in the Vellar estuary, South India
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The northern bank of Vellar estuary (Parangipettai, India) is ideal for postlarval penaeid prawn recruitment. The annual recruitment, distribution and the substratum preference of postlarval immigrants at three different ... -
Effect of temperature and salinity on the hatching of eggs and larval development of sugpo, Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Incubation of Penaeus monodon eggs and rearing of different larval stages were undertaken at nine temperature-salinity combinations. The eggs, nauplii, zoea and mysis from one spawner kept as stock culture at ambient ... -
Larval growth and survival optima for four species of penaeids from Australia, as indicated by their distribution and abundance in the field
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Prawn catches from tropical northern Australia are dominated by four species of prawns: Penaeus merguiensis, P. semisulcatus, P. esculentus and P. latisulcatus.
