A survey of stock of the donkey’s ear abalone, Haliotis asinina L. in the Sagay Marine Reserve, Philippines: Evaluating the effectiveness of marine protected area enforcement
(Elsevier, 2004)Marine protected areas (MPA) are tools for integrated coastal management (ICM); they have gained worldwide acceptance as a strategy for resource restoration and conservation. Research must gauge the effectiveness of MPA ... -
The reestablishment of mangrove crabs (Scylla spp.) in an abandoned pond following natural mangrove recolonization
(Wiley, 2023-09-04)Scylla spp. are among the most economically important fisheries resources derived from the mangroves. However, the widespread mangrove destruction resulted in the loss of habitat, thus the dwindling capture production ... -
Effect of diet isotopic ratios on the \(\mathsf{\delta^{13}C}\) and \(\mathsf{\delta^{15}N}\) signatures of scallop-gut contents in a natural setting
(The Plankton Society of Japan, 2023)The relationship between diet isotopic signatures and the extent of the tissue-diet isotope fractionation factors have been shown previously in controlled feeding studies, but this relationship remains poorly resolved for ... -
Comparative analysis of small-scale aquaculture industry in three Southeast Asian countries
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2007)In many Southeast Asian countries, coastal fishing villages are increasingly encouraging their inhabitants to start small-scale aquaculture as a way of reducing the labor involved in fishing and diversifying their sources ... -
Comparative analysis of pattern of fishcage culture using marine/brackish water in three Southeast Asian countries
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2007)Production by fishcage culture using marine/brackish water has increased drastically since the mid-1980s, when the technology for developing sea bass hatchery fry was established. In the 1990s, it grew further, due to the ... -
Detection of betanodaviruses from different organs of broodstocks and wild juveniles of orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)Aquaculture of grouper including orange-spotted grouper suffers losses from viral nervous necrosis (VNN). This disease usually occurs in larval stage resulting in a high rate of mortality. It is conceivable that vertical ... -
Arachidonic acid enrichment of rotifers and effects of dietary arachidonic acid on broodstock performance of rabbitfish Siganus guttatus
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)Rotifers (Brachionus sp.) were cultured with various combinations of baker’s yeast, Nannochloropsis sp., Culture selco, and DHAPS with or without supplementation of arachidonic acid (triacylglycerol form). Rotifers were ... -
Arachidonic acid distribution in mangrove organisms in the Philippines, Malaysia and Japan
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)There has been little information on the importance of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6, ArA) in fish and other aquatic animals, although the importance of eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3, EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, ... -
Analysis of the sustainability of extensive and intensive methods in brackish water fishpond culture primarily producing shrimp in three Southeast Asian countries
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2006)This study is an investigation of the aquaculture methods used in brackish water fishpond culture mainly producing shrimp in the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia. Extensive methods are practiced in the Philippines and ... -
