Annual cycle of metabolites in relation to breeding and feeding in Ambassis commersoni in Goa waters
(Society of Biosciences, 2000)Seasonal variations in moisture, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and ash content in both the sexes of Ambassis commersoni were studied separately over an annual cycle (1989-1990). The results indicate that percentage of ... -
Effects of different feeding levels on moulting, growth, food conversion efficiency and biochemical composition of the prawn, metapenaeus monoceros (Fabricius)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)Growth efficiency (K sub(1) and K sub(2)) increased from 7 to 15% feeding levels, Maximum water content was recorded in starved prawns and the minimum at 20% feeding level On theoretical basis, average daily feeding level ... -
Growth and food conversion efficiency in the fish Etroplus suratensis in relation to different feeding levels
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)Based on chemical composition of feed and body constituents, food utilization at maintenance and different production levels was estimated. On theoretical derivations, 175, 450 and 650 kcal/kg super(0.8)/week represented ... -
Growth of juvenile shrimp Metapenaeus monoceros fed with squid and mussel
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Small juveniles of both sexes and females of large juveniles of Metapenaeus monoceros attained faster growth with squid diet. Males of large juveniles registered better growth with mussel diet. No significant difference ... -
Parthenogenetic reproduction of Diaphanosoma celebensis (Crustacea: Cladocera): influence of salinity on feeding, survival, growth and neonate production
(Springer, 2000)Effect of salinity on the feeding rate and parthenogenetic reproduction of asexual females of the cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin was studied. Short-term (10 h) grazing experiments were conducted using Isochrysis ... -
Stable isotopic analysis of Barnacle larvae and their faecal pellets to evaluate the ingested food
(Elsevier, 2013)Stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen are useful in the evaluation of food web dynamics and have been used extensively in the feeding studies. Barnacles are dominant component of the intertidal and bio-fouling communities. ... -
Studies on the growth of Penaeid prawns. 3. Growth pattern of Penaeus indicus and Metapenaeus Dobsoni
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)Experimental studies on the growth of @iPenaeus indicus@@ and @iMetapenaeus dobsoni@@ for three and a half months under different levels of feeding gave a growth pattern different from that of von Bertalanffy. The two ... -
Studies on the growth of penaeid prawns: 1. Length-weight relation and condition factor under different levels of feeding
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Length-weight relation and earthworm feeding conditions under different levels for @iPenaeus indicus@@ and @iMetapenaeus dobsoni@@ were estimated. Length-weight exponent in both species was unaffected by the feeding levels ... -
Studies on the growth of penaeid prawns: 2. Growth of Penaeus indicus under different levels of feeding
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)Penaeus indicus was subjected to four different levels of feeding with live earthworm. The growth increments irrespective of the feeding levels did not show any decreasing trend throughout the experimental period. This is ...
