Transport of hatchery-reared and wild grouper larvae, Epinephelus sp.
(Elsevier, 2003)Optimum packing conditions for the transport of hatchery-reared and wild grouper larvae were investigated under simulated condition or actual air transport. Simulation of transport motion was done through the use of an ... -
Advanced broodstock diets for the mangrove red snapper and a potential importance of arachidonic acid in eggs and fry
(Springer Verlag, 2003)Mangrove red snapper fed advanced broodstock diets containing squid meal and squid oil exhibited higher hatching rates, cumulative survival and survival activity index than those fed a basal diet or a basal diet supplemented ... -
A practical broodstock diet for the mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus
(Elsevier, 2003)A practical broodstock diet (39% protein, 8.6% lipid) was formulated for the mangrove red snapper as part of a project to ensure consistent production of good quality eggs and larvae through broodstock nutrition. Reproductive ... -
Reproductive performance in induced and spontaneous spawning of the mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus: a potential candidate species for sustainable aquaculture
(Blackwell Publishing, 2003)A reliable breeding technique was developed for the mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus (Forsskal 1775), to help sustain the aquaculture of this immensely popular species in Southeast Asia. Using ... -
Mortality in pond-cultured shrimp Penaeus monodon in the Philippines associated with Vibrio harveyi and white spot syndrome virus
(Japanese Society of Fish Pathology, 2003)Heavy mortalities were observed among pond-cultured Penaeus monodon in the provinces of Bohol, Misamis Occidental, Lanao del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. Vibrio harveyi was isolated purely from the hepatopancreas ... -
Growth and yield of Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) fed different grow-out diets
(The Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology (SIAMB), 2003)Juveniles of the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (3.6±0.17 g; 78.0±0.09 mm) were fed one of four diets: a laboratory-formulated diet of 18.9% (Diet 1) or 34.2% (Diet 2) protein, a com- mercial feed pellet of 28.9% ... -
Dietary P regulates phosphate transporter expression, phosphatase activity, and effluent P partitioning in trout culture
(Springer Verlag, 2003)Phosphate utilization by fish is an important issue because of its critical roles in fish growth and aquatic environmental pollution. High dietary phosphorus (P) levels typically decrease the efficiency of P utilization, ... -
Phosphorus utilization in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fed practical diets and its consequences on effluent phosphorus levels
(Elsevier, 2003)Excessive dietary phosphorous (P) concentrations in effluents from aquaculture present a major environmental problem. We therefore studied the effect of dietary P and vitamin D3 on P utilization by rainbow ... -
Apparent digestibility of selected feedstuffs by mud crab, Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2003)A feeding experiment was conducted to determine apparent digestibility coefficients for dry matter (ADMD), crude protein (ACPD), crude fat (ACFD), crude fiber (ACFbD), nitrogen-free extract or NFE (ANFED), and crude ash ... -
Potential of feed pea (Pisum sativum) meal as a protein source in practical diets for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 2003)A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the use of feed pea meal as a dietary protein source for juvenile milkfish. Six isonitrogenous (30% crude protein) and isocaloric (16.5 kJ/g) practical diets were formulated. ... -
Diet development and evaluation for juvenile abalone, Haliotis asinina: animal and plant protein sources
(Elsevier, 2003)Growth studies were conducted to determine the suitability of animal and plant protein sources in the diet of abalone, Haliotis asinina. Juvenile abalone with mean initial weight and shell length of 0.69±0.04 g and 11.4±0.35 ... -
Utilization of feed pea, Pisum sativum, meal as protein source in practical diets for juvenile shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 2003)The potential of feed pea meal as an alternative protein source to soybean meal in practical diets for the juvenile tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon, was assessed in several experiments. Six isonitrogenous diets were formulated ... -
Microcystin production during algal bloom occurrence in Laguna de Bay, the Philippines
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 2003)The amount of microcystin in Microcystis aeruginosa bloom was investigated during the rainy season of 1999 in Laguna de Bay, the Philippines. Bloom samples taken from the West Bay and East Cove stations of the lake were ... -
Pen culture of mud crab Scylla serrata in tidal flats reforested with mangrove trees
(Elsevier, 2002)Growth and survival of mixed sex mud crabs Scylla serrata (Forskal), held in 200 m2 pens located in reforested mangrove tidal flats, were evaluated. The effects of stocking density (0.5 or 1.5 m−2) ... -
Effects of salinity, aeration and light intensity on oil globule absorption, feeding incidence, growth and survival of early-stage grouper Epinephelus coioides larvae
(Springer Verlag, 2002)A series of experiments were conducted to examine the effects of salinity, aeration and light intensity on oil globule absorption, feeding incidence, and growth and survival of early-stage Epinephelus coioides larvae. ... -
Level and percentage recovery of resistance to oxytetracycline and oxolinic acid of bacteria from shrimp ponds
(Elsevier, 2002)The bacterial level of the water, sediment and cultured shrimp (Penaeus monodon) from different ponds were determined using a general medium, a presumptive Vibrio medium and a presumptive Pseudomonas–Aeromonas medium. ... -
Growth and fry production of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), on different feeding schedules
(Blackwell Publishing, 2002)The effect of scheduled use of high-protein and low-protein diets on body weight and fry production of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), was determined. A preliminary feeding trial was first conducted on fingerlings. ... -
The coral reef fisheries of Malalison Island, west central Philippines two years after fish sanctuary protection
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 2002)Fish landings in Malalison Island, west central Philippines were monitored from June 1995 to January 1997 to determine species composition of catch, catch per unit effort (CPUE) and yield from the different fishing areas. ... -
Evaluation of plant proteins as partial replacement for animal proteins in diets for Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2002)The growth rate and survival of two white shrimps, Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis, fed diets in which fishmeal was partially replaced with plant protein sources were investigated in three trials. In trial 1 with P. ... -
