Partial replacement of Artemia sp. by the brackishwater cladoceran, Diaphanosoma celebensis (Stingelin), in the larval rearing of sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch)
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1998)A feed experiment was conducted to test the brackishwater cladoceran, Diaphanosoma celebensis, as a partial or complete substitute for Artemia in the larval rearing of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer. The cladoceran was fed ... -
Effect of aquaculture on world fish supplies
(Nature Publishing Group, 2000)Global production of farmed fish and shellfish has more than doubled in the past 15 years. Many people believe that such growth relieves pressure on ocean fisheries, but the opposite is true for some types of aquaculture. ... -
Experimental infection of kuruma prawn (Penaeus japonicus) with Vibrio penaeicida

Thyroid hormones promote early metamorphosis in grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae
(Academic Press, 1998)The response of grouper larvae to the thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), was examined. Two-, 3-, and 4-week-old grouper larvae were reared in seawater containing either ... -
Studies on the reproductive biology of the Donkey's ear abalone, Haliotis asinina Linné
(Elsevier, 1998)The sex ratio, initial size at sexual maturity, spawning period, time interval between successive spawnings and fecundity of the Donkey's ear abalone, Haliotis asinina were studied. The sex ratio of wild abalone (>60 ... -
Use of metaldehyde as a molluscicide in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds
(Elsevier, 1998)The effect of metaldehyde on brackish water pond snails, Cerithidea cingulata, was tested in 250 m2 ponds, and in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds. The field trials were conducted at three locations, namely ... -
Molluscicidal activity of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin)
(Elsevier, 1998)Toxicity tests on the effect of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin) of various stages or size ranges were conducted under controlled laboratory conditions. The 72-h LC50 ... -
Fishing cooperatives in Capiz, central Philippines: their importance in managing fishery resources.
(Elsevier, 1998)Fishery cooperatives can co-manage coastal fishery resources, help improve the living conditions of small-scale fishers, and slow down the rapid depletion of these resources. Ten fisherfolk cooperatives in Capiz, central ... -
Nature parks, museums, gardens, and zoos for biodiversity conservation and environment education: the Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 1998)Public consciousness about biodiversity and the environment, and their importance for sustainable development is not widespread in the Philippines. This article advocates nonformal environment education through nature ... -
Effect of salinity, dietary lipid source and level on growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry
(Elsevier, 1998)Six semi-purified microparticulate diets containing coconut oil (CO), cod liver oil (CLO), and their 1:1 combination (CO+CLO) at 9% and 18% levels were fed to milkfish fry or late postlarvae in freshwater (0 ‰), brackishwater ... -
Culturing seahorse (Hippocampus barbouri) in illuminated cages with supplementary Acetes feeding
(The Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology (SIAMB), 2010)Juvenile Hippocampus barbouri were grown in illuminated cages with or without supplemental daytime feeding of thawed Acetes (a planktonic marine crustacean), or in non-illuminated cages with Acetes feeding, as a supplement ... -
Diet development and evaluation for juvenile abalone, Haliotis asinina: protein/energy levels
(Elsevier, 1999)Juveniles of abalone, Haliotis asinina with mean initial weight and shell length of 0.6±0.03 g and 15±0.07 mm were fed practical diets for 90 days. The practical diets contained graded levels of protein from fish meal, ... -
Dietary onion and ginger enhance growth, hemato-immunological responses, and disease resistance in brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus
(Bioflux, 2012)A 12-week (September to December 2009) feeding trial was conducted to evaluate theimmunostimulatory effects of different substances administered orally through the diet in the brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus. ... -
Optimization of culture conditions for tissue culture production of young plantlets of carrageenophyte Kappaphycus
(Springer Verlag, 2011)To improve the production of Kappaphycus plantlets in tissue culture, optimum media concentrations of an Ascophyllum nodosum extract (Acadian Marine Plant Extract Powder, AMPEP), plant growth regulators (PGR), pH–temperature ... -
Identification of Pseudomonas sp. strain S3 based on small subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences.
(Asian Network for Scientific Information, 2010)Pseudomonas sp. strain S3 was isolated from Paddy (rice) field agricultural area. This organism, which can utilize a halogenated compound of D,L-2-Chloropropionic acid as sole carbon and energy source, catalyses the ... -
