We evaluated movement of fish, especially Misgurnus spp. (loach), in paddy fields and irrigation ponds by conducting an inventory of δ13C and δ15N of fish, potential food sources, and soil organic matter in two ...

Although microalgae show a great potential in the biotechnology sector, high production costs have limited industrial applications. Biomass harvest is one of the major bottlenecks in microalgae cultivation due to high ...

The algae production on non-arable land in the al-Wusta region of the Sultanate of Oman was evaluated. Pre-cleaned production water (pPW) from the oil production was enriched with nutrients and used as growth medium. The ...

Relatively conserved exon sequences among distant aquatic animal taxa (Copepoda, Echinodermata, and Teleostei) were determined for 12 ribosomal protein genes, and 19 primer pairs were designed for an exon-primed intron-crossing ...

As a new class of agricultural insecticides, synthetic pyrethroids are widely used to control insect pests. Synthetic pyrethroids have been shown to enter the aquatic environment from agricultural runoff or drift from ...

The increase in global demand for fishery products has led to a fivefold increase in aquaculture production since 1990. Commercial feed is the highest production cost in intensive aquaculture, and residual commercial feed ...

To date, several protocols have been developed to achieve clear and identifiable metaphase chromosome spreads from larvae of a single fish species. However, the efficiency of these protocols in more than one fish species ...
