Effects of copper and zinc on growth, feeding and oxygen consumption of Farfantepenaeus paulensis postlarvae (Decapoda: Penaeidae)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2000
The effect of chronic exposure (35 days) to sub-lethal concentrations of copper (17-212 ppb) and zinc (41-525 ppb) on growth of Farfantepenaeus paulensis postlarvae 17 days old (PL(17)) was analysed. The effects of acute exposure of PL(17) to the same metal on food ingestion and oxygen consumption were also evaluated.

A Comparison of the Reproductive Performance of the Wild Pink Shrimp SpeciesFarfantepenaeus paulensisandFarfantepenaeus brasiliensisin Captivity

Journal of Shellfish Research, 2011
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare the reproductive performance of the wild shrimp species Farfantepenaeus paulensis and Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis in captivity. The broodstocks were collected in offshore waters in Santa Catarina and transferred to the Marine Station of Aquaculture of the Federal University of Rio Grande.

Influence of artificial insemination on the reproductive performance of Farfantepenaeus paulensis in conventional and unisex maturation systems

Aquaculture, 2004
The application of artificial insemination techniques as a way to overcome the lack of mating of the closed thelycum Farfantepenaeus paulensis under large scale conditions is reported. The performance of artificially inseminated females (49.4 ± 11.6 g) maintained in conventional versus unisex maturation systems was compared.

Importance of biofilm as food source for shrimp (Farfantepenaeus paulensis) evaluated by stable isotopes (δ13C and δ15N)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2007
Abstract The contribution of biofilm and artificial feeds for the growth of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis reared in tanks and net cages were evaluated by using stable isotope (δ13C and δ15N) analysis. In the net cage experiment, mass balance and mixing equations showed that the biofilm contribution to shrimp growth was over 49% of carbon ...

Evaluation of some hemato-immunological parameters in the shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis submitted to environmental and physiological stress

Aquaculture, 2002
Abstract The modulation of some immunological and/or physiological parameters, as a response to stressful conditions, may function as an important indicator of health status especially in cultivated animals such as shrimps, where a rapid and precise assessment of health conditions is crucial to ensure the success of culture programs.

Nursery of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis in cages with artificial substrates: Biofilm composition and shrimp performance

Aquaculture, 2007
Abstract The use of artificial substrates (polyethylene screens) was investigated during the nursery rearing of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis cultured in fixed cages installed in a shallow estuarine inlet of the Patos Lagoon, southern Brazil.

Energy partitioning into growth, respiration, excretion and exuvia during larval development of the shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis

Aquaculture, 2001
Abstract Energy channeled into growth (P), metabolism maintenance (R), excretion (E) and exuvia (Ev) were quantified in feeding larval stages of Farfantepenaeus paulensis reared under commercial practices at 26±1°C and 34±1‰ S. Dry weight, oxygen consumption, ammonia-N excretion and energy content were determined in protozoeal (PZ I–PZ III) and mysid

Larviculture output and stress tolerance of Farfantepenaeus paulensis postlarvae fed Artemia containing different fatty acids

Aquaculture, 2006
Abstract Fatty acid nutrition is known to play a vital role on survival, growth and stress tolerance of aquatic animals. In this study, we assessed whether the enrichment of Artemia franciscana (GSL strain, USA) with emulsions containing different fatty acid profiles would affect larviculture output and tolerance to salinity, temperature and total ...

Spermatophore and sperm quality of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis fed with fresh food supplemented with pollen and paprika

Aquaculture, 2013
Abstract An inadequate feeding strategy can compromise the larval production of penaeids through a decline in reproductive performance, including that of males. For Farfantepenaeus paulensis , it is known that the feed should contain fresh food to avoid a loss of spermatophore and sperm quality.
