Philippine studies support moderate feeding in tilapia
Authors carried out a series of experiments at and around Central Luzon State University designed to determine optimal feeding strategies for tilapia.
HACCP implementation at shrimp farms
HACCP plans bring the benefits of quality assurance, documented chain of custody, monitoring and inputs and better supervision of employee actions.
Freshwater prawns on ice
The Malaysian or giant freshwater prawn can be marketed live, chilled, or frozen. However, farmers face constraints regarding meat quality deterioration.
Microbial flora of aquaculture products
The microbial flora of farmed seafood products, particularly the microorganisms considered human pathogens, are important to individuals and agencies.
Dietary gossypol benefits limited in improving ESC resistance in catfish
The amount of cottonseed meal that can be included in fish diets depends mainly on its levels of free gossypol and available lysine.
Nutrition impacts pigmentation, eye migration In Atlantic halibut
Atlantic halibut juveniles fed artemia in the larval stage often exhibit insufficient pigmentation and lack proper eye migration.
Nutritional considerations for Pacific white shrimp reared in inland, low-salinity waters
Numerous environmental, social and economic advantages support the expansion of euryhaline shrimp and fish production away from coastal environments.
Regional authorities regulate antibiotic use
The regulation of antibiotic use aims to guarantee the safety and efficacy of the drugs for the animals treated and protecting the health of consumers.
Ecuador develops GIS-assisted alert system for shrimp farming
Geographic information systems provide analysis of spatial and temporal datasets in a cartographic form and allow database query and modeling at the same time.
Phospholipids: Essential nutrients for shrimp
Phospholipids play important roles in maintaining normal cell structure and functions and are sources of second messengers in cell signaling.
Ploidy manipulation induces sterility in kuruma prawns
Recent advances in the genetic mapping of kuruma prawns (P. japonicus) have indicated that the female may be the heterogametic sex in this species.
Larval shrimp nutrition, a review
As the industry moves toward the use of domesticated stocks, greater demands will be made on larval shrimp nutrition to support optimum performance.
Improving shellfish aquaculture through triploidy
Triploid bivalves have sparked worldwide interest since the 1980s because of their reported enhanced growth, meat content, flavor and disease resistance.
Broodstock shrimp nutrition, a review
Research into broodstock shrimp nutrition will be a key element in the further use of domesticated and genetically selected stocks for aquaculture.
Ecogenomics: New approach to understanding oyster health
The health of two key oyster species – the American and Pacific – is constantly under threat of parasitic infections leading to diseases MSX and dermo.
Lab studies genes involved with growth, development of bay scallops
In the 1960s, scientists identified bay scallops as a candidate for aquaculture and established many of the techniques behind current culture methodologies.
