The larval and juvenile fish community in Pandan Bay, Panay Island, Philippines
(Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1986)Long-term (1975-1977) collections of larval and juvelnile fish were made from 1) onshore, a sandy beach flanked by a coral terrace and a river mouth, and 2) 500m offshore in 30 m deep water in Pandan Bay. About 70 species ... -
Larval intervals of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, based on the development of swimming and feeding functions.
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)Developmental sequences of characters concerned in swimming and feeding function were examined on laboratory-reared seabass larvae. Based on a scheme of development events constructed in this study, the early life hisory ... -
Larval rearing of Penaeus monodon: Feeds and feeding techniques
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)Larval rearing of P.monodon requires mass culture of selected phytoplankton and zooplankton species. In the protozocal stage, Skelatonoma; Chaetoceros or Tetraselmis is given singly or in combination. The rotifer Brachionus ... -
Larval survival and megalopa production of Scylla sp. at different salinities
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)Salinity tolerance was determined for each zoeal stage of Scylla sp. Larvae from ablated pond-grown females were abruptly transferred to salinities of 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32 ppt. Spawning salinity or previous rearing ... -
Layout and design of aquaculture project: pen and cage systems
(ASEAN/UNDP/FAO Regional Small Scale Coastal Fisheries Development Project, 1986)Various floating cage and fishpen designs are employed to meet enclosure requirements of shrimp and milkfish brood-stock, and for rearing of other finfish at the lgang Substation of the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department in ... -

The layout, construction and management of brackishwater fishponds in the Philippines
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1977)With the advent of new research and studies into aquaculture practices there is a need to improve the size and shape of brackishwater ponds in the Philippines and to make their management more efficient. This article ... -
Leaf meals as protein sources in diets for milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal)
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)The protencial of partial replacement of fish meal protein with protein indigenous leaf meals in practical diets for milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal) was studied. Five isocaloric (375 kcal/100 g diet), isonitrogenous ... -
LHRHa and pimozide-induced breeding in the catfish, Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther).
(1994)Clarias macrocephalus is endemaic yet dwinding freshwater foodfish in the Philippines. Induced breeding protocol was developed after a series of studies which determined the appropriate egg size, proper time of stripping ... -

A lifetime of mangrove research, management and advocacy
(Vlaams Instituut voor de Zee (VLIZ), 2012)Apart from a decade of undergraduate teaching, my professional life has been directly or tangentially devoted to mangrove issues. Strife in my native Mindanao pushed my family and me to the peace and quiet of Panay Is. in ... -
Lipid composition of milkfish grown in ponds by traditional aquaculture
(International Development Research Centre, 1985)Milkfish is one of the most important food fish in the Southeast Asia. It is widely cultured in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Taiwan(Chen 1976). In the Philippines, about 90% of the total aquaculture production comes ... -
Low-cost production of the marine thraustochytrid isolate, Schizochytrium sp. LEY7 as larval live feed enrichement for the mangrove snapper, Lutjanus sp.
(Laboratory of Aquaculture & Artemia Reference Center, Ghent University, 2013)This study demonstrates the potential of low-cost production substrates in mass producing the Schizochytrium sp. LEY7 for maximum DHA production. High biomass yield was achieved by optimizing the culture conditions ... -
Management of fish health in broodstock and larvae of milkfish, sea bass and grouper
(The Oceanic Institute, 1996)Historically, reports on the occurrence of disease problems in milkfish, seabass and grouper were mainly on the isolation and identification of etiological agents. Studies on the tolereance of fish to chemotherapeutants ... -
Mangrove conversion and brackishwater pond culture in the Philippines
(Asian Wetland Bureau; Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau, 1992)Around 50% of mangrove loss in the Philippines can be traced to brackishwater pond construction. The decrease in mangroves from 450 000 ha in 1920 to 132 500 ha in 1990 has been accompanied by expansion of culture ponds ... -
Mariculture techniques for Epinephelus sp. in the Philippines
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development; French Embassy in the Philippines, 1991)This paper reviews the status of different techniques that are presently practiced for Ephinephelus sp. culture in the Philippines. Constraints and problems encountered as well as possible solutions are also discussed. -
Marine protected areas in the Philippines: The case of Malalison island in community-based management of reef fisheries
(UNESCO Office, 2004)The extensive Philippine coastline of more than 22,540 k m provides the natural habitat of a variety of flora and fauna that make the Philippine archipelago one of the centers of marine biodiversity in the world. Resource-use ... -
Maturation and induced spawning of the mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) reared in a floating net cage in the Philippines
(International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM), 1996)Wild-caught mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) were reared in a floating net cage at SEAFDEC/AQD's Igang Marine Substation at Guimaras Island, Central Philippines. In 1993, monthly samplings and induced ... -
Metabolism of cysteine to taurine by rat hepatocytes.
(Plenum Press, 1992)During the past two decades, many investigators have assumed that the major locus of regulation of cysteine catabolism is the partitioning of cysteinesulfinate between its decarboxylation and transamination pathways. Hepatic ... -
Microbial diseases in aquaculture: issues and challenges
(Marine Science Institute, University of the Philippines, 2007)Aquaculture is the farming of aquatic organisms including fish, molluscs, crustaceans and aquatic plants where farming implies some intervention in the rearing process to enhance production, such as regular stocking, ... -
Microbound larval feed as supplement to live food for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) larvae
(European Aquaculture Society, 1991)Highly variable results using Brachionus as food for milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae may be related to: (1) relatively low content of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) in Brachionus and (2) inability of first feeding ... -
