Bioeconomic analysis of intensive production of the blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris (Stimpson)
A bioeconomic approach was used to evaluate random variation of growth and mortality parameters and feed conversion ratio (FCR) for intensive production of the blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris (Stimpson). Severe mortality problems caused by high impact diseases were not considered in this analysis.

Zooplankton, macrozoobenthos and feeding habits of Litopenaeus stylirostris and L. vannamei in monoculture and polyculture semi-intensive experimental ponds were evaluated. Zooplankton was more abundant in monoculture of L. stylirostris (1002 +/- 670 organisms (org.) L(-1)) than in monoculture of L. vannamei (470 +/- 37 org.

Abstract The study was designed to develop a reliable technique for inducing ovarian maturation and spawning in Litopenaeus stylirostris and Litopenaeus vannamei , as an alternative to the traditional and destructive eyestalk ablation. Two combinations of molecules were evaluated: (a) serotonin (5-HT) at 50 μg g −1 body weight (b.w.)+juvenile ...

Haemocytes from penaeid shrimp (Farfantepenaeus californiensis, Litopenaeus vannamei and L. stylirostris) were separated using a discontinuous Percoll gradient. Shrimp haemocytes were spontaneously adhered to glass, allowing slide preparations for staining and microscopic differential counting.

Penaeus stylirostris densovirus (PstDNV) infection is found widespread in peneaid shrimp, especially in economically important species such as black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon and Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Although effective prevention method for viral diseases is not well established in shrimp, the treatment with viral specific ...

Floc contribution on spawning performance of blue shrimpLitopenaeus stylirostris [PDF]
The floc system has been successfully applied for shrimp grow-out, but little is known about floc contribution on reproductive performance. In a 30-day trial, spawning performance of broodstock was evaluated in floc and earthen ponds. Floc spawners achieved better results (P 0.05) compared with pond spawners in terms of number of spawns per ablated ...

Abstract A feeding trial with Macrobrachium acanthurus juveniles was performed to determine growth performance and utilization of diets varying in protein, lipid, and carbohydrate level. Twelve diets were formulated with three levels of protein (P) and supplemented with different proportions of lipids (L) and carbohydrates (C): P30‐L20‐C8, P30‐L15‐C19,

Stylicins, a new family of antimicrobial peptides from the Pacific blue shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris [PDF]
The present study reports the characterization of Ls-Stylicin1, a novel antimicrobial peptide from the penaeid shrimp, Litopenaeus stylirostris. The predicted mature peptide of 82 residues is negatively charged (theoretical pI=5.0) and characterized by a proline-rich N-terminal region and a C-terminal region containing 13 cysteine residues.

This paper is a review paper based on biofloc technology (BFT). In this paper the current global status of BFT, the biology behind the technique and areas for future expansion are discussed. Abstract Increased food demand, reflecting a rising global human population, attaining 8 billion in 2022, has furthered the intensification of farmed aquatic ...

Diseases of the giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii: A review for a growing industry
Abstract The giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, is a major focus of aquaculture in tropical and sub‐tropical regions around the globe. Over the last 30 years, culture of M. rosenbergii has increased exponentially as demand has risen both for domestic consumption and for international export trade.
