Dietary Value of Waste-Fed Rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis on the Larval Rearing of Japanese Whiting Sillago japonica
(E3S Web of Conferences, 2020-02-12)Abstract. Live food resources are useful for larval fish rearing. However, production of sufficient live food resources is expensive. This study employed a cost-effective rotifer culture technique using fish waste diet ... -
Using Earthworm, Eisenia fetida, to Bio-convert Agro-industrial Wastes for Aquaculture Nutrition
(BioResources, 2020)Agro-industrial waster pose great economic and evironmental hazards, while the economic success of aquaculture is a threatened bu the unsustainabiloity o fishmeal use. The aim of the present study were to bio-convert ... -
Complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater monogonont rotifer Brachionus rubens (Rotifera, Brachionidae)
(Informa Uk Limited, trading as Taylor & Francil Group, 2019-12-10)The two complete mitochondrial genomes were sequenced from the freshwater monogonont rotifer Brachionus rubens. The genome sequences were 12,041 bp and 13,793 bp in size, and the gene order and contents were identical to ... -
Blending fishwastes and chicken manure extract as low-cost and stable diet for mass culture of freshwater zooplankton, optimized for aquaculture
(IOP Publishing, 2019)This study investigated the feasibility of fishwastes and chicken manure extract (CME) as cheap diet for mass culture of freshwater zooplankton. CME and fishwastes as well as carbon source were used to make fishwaste ... -
Utilization of the earthworm, Eisenia fetida (Savigny, 1826) as an alternative protein source in fish feeds processing
(Aquaculture Research Wiley, 2018-11-27)Use of fish meal in aquaculture is gradually becoming unsustainable due to com‐ petition, cost and ecological challenges hence the need to expand the alternative protein sources. The earthworm, Eisenia fetida is among ... -
Efficiency of pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo), sweet wormwood (Artemisia annua) and amaranth (Amaranthus dubius) in removing nutrients from a smallscale recirculating aquaponic system
(Aquaculture International, 2019-08-28)In aquaponic systems, plants absorb dissolved nutrients from aquaculture wastewater for their growth. The removal of nutrients allows reuse of water and minimises wastewater discharge to the surrounding environment. This ... -
In vitro organic matter disappearance of tanniferous browse using rumen liquid from goats ingesting grass versus browse
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-12-01)In vitro organic matter disappearance (IVOMD) of African browse species often indicates artificially low nutritive value due to the presence of condensed tannins (CT). Diet of the rumen liquor donor may change this if ... -
In vitro assessment of ruminal fermentation characteristics of tropical browse mixtures supplemented with yeast
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2012-03-01)An in vitro ruminal gas production study was conducted to assess the effect of yeast supplementation on rumen fermentation of tanniniferous tropical browse mixtures prepared by mixing Berchemia discolor with Acacia ... -
