The COVID-19 pandemic is now spreading throughout the world affecting the agricultural activities including fish and shrimp culture sectors. Most of the shrimp producing countries particularly in South-east Asia have been affected due to the lockdown, quarantine roles and regulations ordered by the countries, which was assigned to reduce and control the COVID-19 pandemic spreading in the globe....

the study of changes the amount of protein, lipid, carbohydrates, fiber, ash and moisture of farmed litopenaeus vannamei at different stages of growth was performed. samples at the stages of post larvae 12, shrimp with 1, 2 and 3 months age, grow-out and market shrimp at the end of the period were provided from hatchery and breeding centers in khuzestan province. chemical composition w measured...

It is a well-known fact that diseases affect health, survival and recruitment of any individual susceptible for diseases. As a consequence of disease, harvests from natural resources and, in particular, those from aquaculture dwindle quite severely. While an appreciable volume of information on variety of mycotic diseases in the marine organisms is available on global scale, studies from Indian...

Reducing small shrimps in the Gulf of Maine pink shrimp fishery with a new size-sorting grid system Pingguo He, Institute for the Study of Earth, Oceans and Space and NH Sea Grant University of New Hampshire, Durham, NH. (603) 862-3154, [email protected] Vincent Balzano, F/V “North Star”, Saco, Maine, USA INTRODUCTION Since the implementation of the Nordmore Grid in the Gulf of Maine pink shri...

because of being much perishable product as well as having low per capita consumption, much study on shrimp and its different supplying methods such as canned shrimp is needed to improve per capita consumption of seafood especially in case of shrimp. in this study, the effect of different pre-cooking methods on quality of canned penaeus semisulcatus was studied. although frying and baking metho...

BACKGROUND Persistent infection of Penaeus stylirostris densovirus (PstDNV) (also called IHHNV) and its non-infectious inserts in the black tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon (P. monodon) genome are commonly found without apparent disease. Here, we introduced the method of multiplex PCR in order to differentiate shrimp with viral inserts from ones with the infectious virus. The method allowed us to ...

The taxonomic status of the extraintestinal piscine coccidium Calyptospora funduli is based in part on its requirement of an intermediate host (the daggerblade grass shrimp Palaemonetes pugio). In the present study, grass shrimp fed livers of Gulf killifish (Fundulus grandis) infected with sporulated oocysts of C. funduli exhibited numerous sporozoites suspended in the intestinal contents when ...

The Probiotics is “a live microbial feed supplement which beneficially affect the host animal by improving its intestinal microbial balance” (Fuller, 1992). The scientific shrimp culture started during 1980s. There is about 1.2 million hectare of brackish water available for shrimp culture in India. This shrimp culture is carried out by traditional, extensive, semiintensive and intensive method...

In a blind and randomised study, early postlarval stages of the tadpole shrimp Triops cancriformis, the fairy shrimp Branchipus schaefferi, and the clam shrimp Leptestheria dahalacensis were exposed to different concentrations of a commonly available Bti suspension, equivalent to 0, 4.5 (recommended treatment concentration), 45, 450, and 4500 AA/l. No statistically significant correlations were...

The dietary crude protein requirement of penaeid shrimp is an important nutritional consideration because protein is often the major limiting nutrient for growth. In most cases, research has focused on total dietary protein levels rather than a daily requirement for protein. This research utilized three practical diets containing 16%, 32%, and 48% protein and various daily rations to estimate d...
