Techniques on algae harvesting and preservation for use in culture and as larval food
(Elsevier, 1990)A method of algae harvesting and preservation was developed. Test algal species consisted of two diatoms: Chaetoceros calcitrans and Skeletonema costatum, and two flagellates: Tetraselmis chui and Isochrysis galbana. ... -
Organic pollution resulting from excess feed and metabolite build-up: Effect on Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Elsevier, 1990)Penaeus monodon postlarvae, PL, with mean weight and mean total length of 0.57 mg and 6.5 mm respectively, were stocked in aerated aquaria at 20 litre−1 of seawater. They were fed minced shrimp meat at rates of ... -
Daily amount of rotifers taken by a sea bass Lates calcarifer larvae
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1990)The amount of rotifers consumed by a single sea bass Lates calcarifer larva per day (R) was examined by both the direct and by the satiation-digestion methods. In the direct method, R is estimated by the number of rotifers ... -
Vertical rope cultivation of Gracilaria (Rhodophyta) using vegetative fragments
(Walter de Gruyter, 1990)Preliminary field culture of Gracilaria using vegetative fragments inserted between braids of ropes suspended vertically inside a floating cage was undertaken to assess the daily growth rate and monthly yield as influenced ... -
Spawning response latency and egg production capacity of LHRHa-injected mature female sea bass, Lates calcarifer Bloch
(Blackwell Publishing, 1990)Mature female sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) were injected once intramuscularly with 20 μg luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (D-Ala6, Pro9-LHRH-ethylamide) per kg body weight (BW) at ... -
Year-round sexual maturation of bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis (Richardson) reared in floating cages in Laguna de Bay (Philippines).
(Blackwell Publishing, 1990)Sexual maturation in bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis reared without supplemental feeding in floating cages in Laguna de Bay was observed year-round. Percent maturation ranged from 3 to 94% in females and 0 to 82% in males ... -
Development of mouth width and larval growth in three marine fish species
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1990)Hatchery-bred larvae of three marine fish species, milkfish (Chanos chanos), seabass (Lates calcarifer) and rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) were reared on rotifers and Artemia nauplii. Development of the mouth width and ... -
Milkfish (Chanos chanos) fingerling production in freshwater ponds with the use of natural and artificial feeds
(Elsevier, 1989)Milkfish fry were reared to fingerling size in freshwater ponds. For the first experiment, fish were fed the blue-green algae Oscillatoria inoculated and grown in the ponds, Oscillatoria supplemented with a fishmeal-based ... -
Ion chromatography of inorganic anions in brine samples
(Oxford University Press, 1989)An ion chromatographic method for separating and detecting anions in brine samples is described. Nitrite, bromide, nitrate, and sulfate ions in brine samples are well separated when chloride ion concentration in the sample ... -
Food preference of wild milkfish juveniles in connection with habitat and food availability
(Taylor & Francis, 1989)Through quantitative determination of the gut content of wild milk fish (Chanos chanos) juveniles, the study aimed to evaluate the food preference of the fish in relation to its availability in the pond so that necessary ... -
Ovarian development and changes in the serum vitellogenin levels in the river sculpin, Cottus hangiongensis, during an annual reproductive cycle
(Faculty of Fisheries, Hokkaido University, 1989)Annual changes in the ovarian development and serum vitellogenin concentration were investigated in the river sculpin, Cottus hangiongensis, sampled monthly from a river in southern Hokkaido, Japan. Ovarian development ... -
Identification and characterization of vitellin in a hermaphrodite shrimp, Pandalus kessleri
(Elsevier, 1989)1. A female specific protein (FSP, vitellogenin) in hemolymph and its related ovarian protein (vitellin) of Pandalus kessleri were studied by means of electrophoretical and immunological procedures. 2. The vitellin was ... -
An evaluation of indigenous protein sources as potential component in the diet formulation for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, using essential amino acid index (EAAI)
(Elsevier, 1989)The essential amino acid index (EAAI) could be used in screening potential protein sources. However, when formulating diets, EAAI should be supported with feeding trials and digestibility tests to determine the extent of ... -
Effect of salinity on hemolymph calcium concentration during the molt cycle of the prawn Penaeus monodon
(Springer Verlag, 1989)Prawns (Penaeus monodon) were obtained from ponds in Iloilo, Philippines, in 1984 and 1985 and maintained in salinities from 8 to 44‰. Total hemolymph calcium was largely affected by molt stage and less so by salinity. A ... -
Effect of fatty acid composition of broodstock diet on tissue fatty acid patterns and egg fertilization and hatching in pond-reared Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)The effect of dietary fatty acid composition on tissue fatty acid patterns and Penaeus monodon was evaluated with the use of 3 practical diets. Diets were formulated to contain the same basal components but with various ... -
Ingestion saturation and growth responses of Penaeus monodon larvae to food density
(Elsevier, 1989)Different larval stages of Penaeus monodon were fed with increasing densities of Tetraselmis sp. to evaluate the relationship between food density, ingestion rates, development and growth of Penaeus monodon larvae. Ingestion ... -
Preliminary results of feeding aquatic macrophytes to Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Elsevier, 1989)Penaeus monodon juveniles (PL50) were fed live and decaying aquatic macrophytes and a commercial grow-out pellet (40% crude protein) in 80-l glass tanks over a 30-day period. Growth and survival were significantly ... -
Effects of feeding frequency and amount of feeding on the growth of the grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1989)The effects of feeding frequency and amount of food on the growth of juvenile groupers (Epinephelus malabaricus) were investigated for 12 weeks of rearing in net-cages set in an earthen pond. The juveniles (110-130 g in ... -
Development of an ovarian biopsy technique in the sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch).
(Elsevier, 1989)A convenient and rapid biopsy method for taking ovarian samples from mature sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) is described. Intra-ovarian oocytes siphoned with polyethylene tubing from any region of the ovary provide a ... -
