Abstract:

Oysters have been collected from wild since long time ago for human consumption. Recent development in aquaculture has allows the production of its seed in hatchery. Factors favoring the oyster production are stocking density, water quality and the availability of live food. These factors can increase the growth and survival of the oyster. Fundamental knowledge on life cycle and biology of oyster is important as it can become the basis for successful development of oyster culture. Due to the limited seed supply, hatchery produce seedlings are important to support the development of oyster industry.

Assessment of Temperature Effects on Early Larval Development Survival of Hatchery-reared Tropical Oyster, Crassostrea iredalei.

The influence of the cool and warm temperatures on early life development and survival of tropical oyster, Crassostrea iredalei was studied. D-hinged larvae (day 1 larvae) were reared to three different temperatures (20°C, 27°C, and 34°C) for nine days. Oyster larvae reared in temperature 27°C, acted as control (ambient temperature). The highest survival rate occurred when the larvae were reare...

Evaluation of selected substrates for collection of hatchery reared black-lip pearl oyster (Pinctada margaritifera) spat

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of collector materials and position on Pinctada margaritifera spat attachment. Settlement on polyethylene pipes (54.6%) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than on plastic baskets (25%). Significantly higher (P < 0.05) spat catch was recorded from the collectors which were installed on lower height of settlement tank than upper. The number o...

Constraints to seed production: temperate and tropical forest trees.

Reforestation requires a constant supply of high quality seed. Different methods have been used to measure seed and fruit production as a proportion of that which potentially could be produced. These estimates coupled with developmental studies permit determination of when and to what extent different biological constraints reduce seed and fruit production. These vary among species, years and s...

Hatchery Technology for High Quality Juvenile Production

Benedenia disease caused by the ectoparasite Benedenia seriolae is a serious parasitic disease in yellowtail aquaculture, leading to secondary viral or bacterial infections. Benedenia disease is difficult to prevent in marine aquaculture systems. To evaluate the genetic basis of Benedenia disease resistance in yellowtail, a genome-wide and chromosome-wide linkage analysis was initiated using F1...
