Aquaculture Soft Coral Lobophytum crassum as a Producer of Anti-Proliferative Cembranoids. [PDF]

Mar Drugs, 2018
Our continuous search for marine bioactive secondary metabolites led to the screening of crude extracts from a variety of aquaculture soft corals. The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extract of Lobophytum crassum showed a distinctive chemical profile that was different from the wild type.

Osteo-replacement properties of scleractinium coral aquaculture skeleton (experimental study)

Вестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2019
Aim: to evaluate the osteo-replacement properties of the coral aquaculture skeleton of P. verrucosa and A. abrotanoides (CAS) on a model of a fenestral defect in the femur of rats in comparison with the natural coral skeleton of A.

Improving Coral Grow-Out Through an Integrated Aquaculture Approach [PDF]

Aquaculture Nutrition
Some coral species in natural reef systems derive benefits from fish which live in close association with them. This study investigates the benefits of incorporating fish in ex situ coral culture to enhance coral physiological performance.

Biological controls to manage Acropora-eating flatworms in coral aquaculture [PDF]

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020
Coral aquaculture is expanding to supply the marine ornamental trade and active coral reef restoration. A common pest of Acropora corals is the Acropora-eating flatworm Prosthiostomum acroporae, which can cause colonial mortality at high infestation ...

Optimizing facility location, sizing, and growth time for a cultivated resource: A case study in coral aquaculture.

PLoS ONE, 2023
Production of cultivated resources require additional planning that takes growth time into account. We formulate a mathematical programming model to determine the optimal location and sizing of growth facilities, impacted by resource survival rate as a ...

Ulcerated yellow spot syndrome: implications of aquaculture-related pathogens associated with soft coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi tissue lesions [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2012
We introduce a new marine syndrome called ulcerated yellow spot, affecting the soft coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi. To identify bacteria associated with tissue lesions, tissue and mucus samples were taken during a 2009 Indo-Pacific research expedition near the Wakatobi Island chain, Indonesia.

Low light intensity increased survival of coral spat in aquaculture [PDF]

Coral Reefs
AbstractCoral reef ecosystems are declining and may not recover under future climate scenarios without intervention. Seeding reefs with corals bred in aquaculture is a promising restoration intervention; however, early coral recruits (spat) are vulnerable to overgrowth by benthic algae and maximizing their survival is essential for the feasibility of ...

Field Observations and Analyses of Water Quality Characteristics in a Dense Aquaculture Area Adjacent to a Coral Reef in Bolinao, Philippines

PROCEEDINGS OF COASTAL ENGINEERING, JSCE, 2008
Bolinao is located along the north western coast of Luzon Island in the Philippines. Uncontrolled aquaculture has contributed to deterioration of water quality, indicated by massive milk fish kills and destruction of ecosystem of the Bolinao reef complex.

Fouling release coatings reduce colonisation of coral seeding devices [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The increasing frequency and severity of coral bleaching underscores the need for effective coral reef restoration programs. These initiatives include deploying coral fragments or early recruits (spat), with large-scale coral seeding success dependent on

Species-specific metabolomic profiles of coral reef coralline algae and their influence on the larval settlement of corals and crown-of-thorns starfish [PDF]

Scientific Reports
To address a significant knowledge gap in chemical ecology underpinning larval settlement processes on coral reefs, we examined the tissue-associated metabolomes using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy across 14 species of crustose coralline ...
