Freshwater prawn culture: a review

Aquaculture, 1990
Abstract Although freshwater prawn farming forms only about 5% of the global aquaculture production of shrimps and prawns it is of considerable local importance, particularly in S.E. Asia. Recent entry into global markets is likely to stimulate renewed interest in Macrobrachium culture.

Studies on the ingestion characteristics of giant freshwater prawn, Chinese prawn and giant tiger prawn

Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2000
The ingestion of giant freshwater prawn, Chinese prawn and giant tiger prawn had continuity and the ingestion high peak occurred at night. Light and temperature had significant effects on the daily ingestion rate (DIR) of giant freshwater prawnMacrobrachium rosenbergii. Red light and blue light favorably induced favorable ingestion.

Excessive use of enrofloxacin leads to growth inhibition of juvenile giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii is an economically important species. However, its growth retardant have brought serious economic losses in recent years. Antibiotics abuse is suggested as a reason for M.

Efficient utilization of poultry by-product meal-based diets when fed to giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii

, 2020
Two feeding trials were conducted to investigate the utilization of poultry by-product meal (PBM) in the post-larvae and juveniles of giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. In experiment 1, five diets were formulated using PBM to replace fish

Osmoregulation in Some Freshwater Prawns

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1957
ABSTRACT A freshwater prawn, Palaemonetes antennarius, from Italy, is shown to have a different level of salt concentration in the blood and urine compared with that of the brackish water P. varians and Palaemon longirostris in Britain.

An improved harvesting net for freshwater prawns

Aquacultural Engineering, 1982
Abstract In Hawaii, because of the transformation from a small-farm operation into fairly large aquacultural enterprises, the need to develop an improved harvesting net for fresh-water prawns has been developed. The design/operation of a mechanized net and the success of the full-scale prototype for the industry is detailed.

Responses of freshwater prawn,Macrobrachium rosenbergii, to chemical attractants

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1987
Chemoreception in the adults of the freshwater prawnMacrobrachium rosenbergii was investigated under controlled laboratory conditions, using behavioral assays. Tests were carried out on groups, as well as on individuals, all at their intermolt stages of the molt cycle, and prestarved for three to four days.

Silencing of prophenoloxidase (proPO) gene in freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, makes them susceptible to white spot syndrome virus (WSSV).

Journal of Fish Diseases, 2020
Prophenoloxidase (proPO) is very important to protect the invertebrates from microbial infections. Our previous studies revealed that proPO was up-regulated in WSSV-injected Macrobrachium rosenbergii and is responsible for protecting M.

Applied Nutrition in Freshwater Prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, Culture

Journal of Applied Aquaculture, 2003
ABSTRACT The freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, commonly called ‘scampi,’ is the most important culturable freshwater species of prawn with a fairly high growth rate, wide range of temperature (15-35°C) and salinity tolerance. The nutrients required by this species for growth and associated physiological functions are similar to those ...

Glutamate related osmoregulation of guanine nucleotide-binding protein G (I) α2 from giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) during molting and salinity stress

, 2020
Giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) is one of the most important cultured freshwater prawn species. Although giant freshwater prawn lives in freshwater, brackish water environment is essential for their larval stage of development.
