The survival and growth of larvae to Stage II was higher when fed ongrown (1.5 mm long) Artemia enriched with Isochrysis galbana (Tahitian strain) at 3 ml-1 compared to those fed pieces (0.5-1 mm) of blue mussel (Mytilus edulis planulatus), clam (Katelesia scalarina) or Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) at 0.08 pieces ml-1. There were no differences in survival, size or intermoult interval for newly-hatched larvae grown to Stage III when fed ongrown Artemia only at densities of 1.5, 3 or 6 ml-1 or for Stage III larvae grown to Stage VI when fed ongrown Artemia at densities of 1.5, 3 or 6 ml-1 plus mussel (0.04 pieces ml-1). Stage VI larvae fed ongrown Artemia plus mussel (0.08 pieces ml-1) were larger by instar 10 than larvae fed mussel only (0.08 or 0.16 pieces ml-1). Lower survival became apparent for the mussel-only treatments 205 days after hatch (at Stages IX or X). The pattern of moulting became progressively less synchronised with each successive stage and instar, so that after instar 11 (about Stage IX), it was difficult to discern discrete peaks in the moulting pattern. The first larva reached Stage XI 288 days after hatch. The size of larvae and duration to successive moults, but not survival, were influenced by parent of origin indicating the importance of selection of broodstock in hatchery rearing." name="eprints.abstract" /> <meta content="2002-09" name="eprints.date" /> <meta content="published" name="eprints.date_type" /> <meta content="Aquaculture" name="eprints.publication" /> <meta content="212" name="eprints.volume" /> <meta content="1-4" name="eprints.number" /> <meta content="179-190" name="eprints.pagerange" /> <meta content="10.1016/S0044-8486(02)00015-7" name="eprints.id_number" /> <meta content="UNSPECIFIED" name="eprints.thesis_type" /> <meta content="TRUE" name="eprints.refereed" /> <meta content="http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0044-8486(02)00015-7" name="eprints.official_url" /> <meta content="Booth, J.

left; margin: 1em auto 0em auto">Newly-hatched phyllosoma larvae from southern rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii) were grown in culture vessels containing 10 l sea water in a flow-through system at 18 degrees C and fed diets of Artemia sp. and shellfish. The survival and growth of larvae to Stage II was higher when fed ongrown (1.5 mm long) Artemia enriched with Isochrysis galbana (Tahitian strain) at 3 ml-1 compared to those fed pieces (0.5-1 mm) of blue mussel (Mytilus edulis planulatus), clam (Katelesia scalarina) or Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) at 0.08 pieces ml-1. There were no differences in survival, size or intermoult interval for newly-hatched larvae grown to Stage III when fed ongrown Artemia only at densities of 1.5, 3 or 6 ml-1 or for Stage III larvae grown to Stage VI when fed ongrown Artemia at densities of 1.5, 3 or 6 ml-1 plus mussel (0.04 pieces ml-1). Stage VI larvae fed ongrown Artemia plus mussel (0.08 pieces ml-1) were larger by instar 10 than larvae fed mussel only (0.08 or 0.16 pieces ml-1). Lower survival became apparent for the mussel-only treatments 205 days after hatch (at Stages IX or X). The pattern of moulting became progressively less synchronised with each successive stage and instar, so that after instar 11 (about Stage IX), it was difficult to discern discrete peaks in the moulting pattern. The first larva reached Stage XI 288 days after hatch. The size of larvae and duration to successive moults, but not survival, were influenced by parent of origin indicating the importance of selection of broodstock in hatchery rearing.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available online at http://www.sciencedirect.com/</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">rock lobster, phyllosoma, larval rearing, Artemia, diet </td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300701.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300700 Fisheries Sciences > 300701 Physiology and Genetics</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300703.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300700 Fisheries Sciences > 300703 Aquaculture</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1567</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Dr Arthur J Ritar</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">07 Aug 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1567;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=1567">item control page</a></p> </td></tr></table> </div> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --></td> </tr> <tr> <td><!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/footer_eprints.lbi" --> <table width="795" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" class="footer"> <tr valign="top"> <td colspan="2"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au">UTAS home</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/library/">Library home</a> | <a href="/">ePrints home</a> | <a href="/contact.html">contact</a> | <a href="/information.html">about</a> | <a href="/view/">browse</a> | <a href="/perl/search/simple">search</a> | <a href="/perl/register">register</a> | <a href="/perl/users/home">user area</a> | <a href="/help/">help</a></div><br /></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><p><img src="/images/eprints/footerline.gif" width="100%" height="4" /></p></td></tr> <tr valign="top"> <td width="68%" class="footer">Authorised by the University Librarian<br /> © University of Tasmania ABN 30 764 374 782<br /> <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/cricos/">CRICOS Provider Code 00586B</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/copyright/copyright_disclaimers.html">Copyright & Disclaimers</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/accessibility/index.html">Accessibility</a> | <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/feedback/">Site Feedback</a> </td> <td width="32%"><div align="right"> <p align="right" class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/"><img src="http://www.utas.edu.au/shared/logos/unioftasstrip.gif" alt="University of Tasmania Home Page" width="260" height="16" border="0" align="right" /></a></p> <p align="right" class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/"><br /> </a></p> </div></td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td><p> </p></td> <td><div align="right"><span class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.eprints.org/software/"><img src="/images/eprintslogo.gif" alt="ePrints logo" width="77" height="29" border="0" align="bottom" /></a></span></div></td> </tr> </table> <!-- #EndLibraryItem --> <div align="center"></div></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
