farming systems; food availability; geographic information systems; image analysis; models; moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer; mollusc culture; scallops; shellfish; temperature; Japan
Abstract:
... Scallop aquaculture has grown to become the most successful marine shellfish farming venture in Japan. To ensure long-term sustainability of scallop production, suitable sites need to be selected. This study was conducted to identify the most suitable sites for hanging culture of Japanese scallop (Mizuhopecten yessoensis) based on measured biophysical parameters and modeled using geographic inform ...

sequence analysis; abalone; antibiotic resistance; antibiotics; avirulent strains; ribosomal DNA; Haliotis diversicolor; disease outbreaks; mortality; nucleotide sequences; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; mollusc culture; bacteria; postlarvae; China
Abstract:
... Outbreaks of mass mortality of postlarval abalone, Haliotis diversicolor supertexta, have occurred in south China since 2002 and have forced many abalone farms to close. About 30 representative bacterial strains were isolated from a sample of five diseased postlarval abalone, taken 25 days post-fertilization during an outbreak of postlarval disease in Shenzhen, China, in October 2006. Bacterial ch ...

Abstract:
... The progress of gametogenesis was studied in oysters Crassostrea gigas having the same origin (Tremblade), but cultured during 1 year in two distinctive French marine areas, the Baie des Veys and Marennes-Oléron. We assessed seasonal changes in the reproduction cycle on the basis of stereological techniques to estimate reproductive investment and measurement of gonad evolution area by quantitative ...

interspecific variation; ropes; mussels; hybrids; taxonomy; farms; nuclear genome; indigenous species; Mytilus edulis; shellfish; biogeography; Scotland; Baltic Sea
Abstract:
... Mussel (Mytilus spp.) production is one of the most economically important aspects of global aquaculture and, in Scotland, production has increased from 262 t in 1986 to 4,219 t in 2006. Until recently, mussel production in Scotland was considered to be based exclusively on the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, the native species. In Europe, production is known to consist of M. edulis and M. galloprovin ...

Abstract:
... For establishing nitrification in prawn (non-penaeid, salinity 10-15 ppt) and shrimp (penaeid, salinity 30-35 ppt) larval production systems, a stringed bed suspended bioreactor (SBSBR) was designed, fabricated, and validated. It was fabricated with 5 mm polystyrene and low density polyethylene beads as the substrata for ammonia and nitrite oxidizing bacterial consortia, respectively, with an over ...

Abstract:
... The recent decreasing worldwide supplies of marine oils have forced the aquaculture industry to investigate alternative lipid sources for use in marine fish feeds. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of dietary replacement of fish oil by vegetable oils on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) growth performance, nutritive utilization, body composition, and fatty acid profile as well as f ...

Abstract:
... Several tilapia species in Mexican reservoirs have been used as food source for more than 40 years but little effort has been devoted to the conservation and genetic selection of those species. Our objective was to evaluate genetic variability in feral (n = 59) and hatchery-produced (n = 58) Oreochromis niloticus stocked in the Benito Juarez dam. Allozyme analyses for 13 enzymatic systems and gene ...

Abstract:
... The effects of four modes of diel temperature-fluctuation with two designated fluctuating temperatures (15 ± 3°C and 18 ± 3°C) on the growth and energy budget of young sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus Selenka, were studied to develop a highly efficient temperature-control scheme for aquaculture of the species. Sea cucumbers with a mean wet body weight of 8.0 ± 1.2 g (mean ± SD) were allocated ...
