Culturing Brachionus rotundiformis Tschugunoff (Rotifera) using dried foods: application of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-07-01)
This study investigated the population growth of the rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis (S-type) in batch cultures using dried Nannochloropsis oculata and Chlorella vulgaris with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) supplementation. ...
Effect of starvation and accumulation of generations on mixis induction in offspring of the monogonont rotifer Brachionus manjavacas hatched from resting eggs
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-07-01)
The effect of starvation on sexual reproduction in cyclic parthenogenetic rotifers has been studied using life history experiment. Short-time starvation of rotifers that experienced starvation immediately after hatching ...
Effect of replacing marine protein with hydrolyzed feather meal on growth, apparent digestibility and body composition of juvenile tilapias; Oreochromis mossambicus (peters, 1852)
(KENYA MARINE AND FISHERIES RESEARCH INSTITUTE, 2017)
The effects of substituting hydrolyzed feather meal for fresh water shrimp meal on growth, apparent digestibility and body composition in tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus were evaluated under laboratory condition. Five ...
Studies on the development of low-cost and stable live food production technologies for tropical aquaculture: a case study of Rotifera (Family: Brachionidae)
(Nagasaki University's, 2017-09-20)
Live food resources e.g. rotifers, copepods, cladocerans and Artemia are critical
for successful fish larviculture. However, the hatchery production of these live foods
depends on the availability of high density microalgae, ...
Substitution of fish meal with sunflower seed meal in diets for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) reared in earthen ponds
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01-02)
This study investigated sunflower seed meal (SSM) as dietary protein replacement of fish meal (FM) for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) juveniles (initial mean weight of 19.8 ± 6.3 g) reared in earthen ponds for 210 ...
BLENDING FISHWASTES AND CHICKEN MANURE EXTRACT AS A LOW-COST AND STABLE DIET FOR PLANKTONIC LIVE FOOD PRODUCTION
(Ghent University, Belgium, 2017)
The global increase of aquaculture has expanded the demand for the zooplankton as live foods for larviculture. Although freshly cultured microalgae is the common diet for zooplankton, microalgal culture protocols are ...
A SIMPLE AND LOW-COST TECHNIQUE FOR CULTURING ROTIFERA WITHOUT MICROALGAE
(Ghent University, Belgium, 2017)
So far, microalgae are the first choice diet for feeding rotifers (Maruyama et al., 1997), thanks to their excellent influence on rotifer growth rate (Hagiwara et al., 1997; Dhert et al., 2001; Yoshimatsu and Hossain, ...
