      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 ...
    • Thermal tolerance of larval greentail prawn Metapenaeus bennettae (Raced and Dall) a comparison with school prawn Metapenaeus macleayi 

      Murai, Tadashi (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)

    • A new approach in intensive nursery rearing of penaeids 

      Aquacop (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
      The need for a nursery phase between the hatchery and the growing pond to avoid mortalities of young postlarvae, and provide a better assessment of stocked animals is general in crustacean aquaculture. The Centre ...
    • Description of the embryonic stages of Penaeus notialis and the influence of some abiotic factors on the species 

      Fernandez, Isis; Oliva, Mario (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
      The embryonic development of the shrimp Penaeus notialis Farfante, 1967 is studied. The duration from spawning to hatching of the nauplii was 14-16 hr. As soon as spawning occurs, a sequence of transformations is observed ...
    • Induction to ovary maturation by ablation in the pink shrimp Penaeus notialis 

      Ramos, Laida (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 ...
    • Economics of penaeid culture in the Americas 

      Griffin, Wade; Lawrence, Addison; Johns, Michael (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
      Shrimp culture in the Americas began in the early 1970's and has experienced rapid growth in some Latin American countries. Currently, Latin America produces one-third of all cultured shrimp with Ecuador as the leading ...
    • Seasonal abundance of Penaeid prawn seed in the Ennore estuary, Madras in relation to hydrography and lunar phase 

      Vasudevan, S.; Subramoniam, T. (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, ...
    • A brief review of the larval rearing techniques of penaeid prawns 

      Liao, I-Chiu (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
      As early as half a century ago, Hudinaga successfully spawned and attempted to rear the larvae of Penaeus japonicus. Publications in the 1960 s, 70's and 80's on breakthroughs in larval rearing of one penaeid species after ...
