Utilization of Distiller’s Dried Grains with Soluble in Catfish Feeds
(2009-07-16)
Feed is generally the largest expenditure in semi-intensive and intensive catfish culture operations, and protein is the most expensive component of feeds. Efforts to reduce feed costs have resulted in increased use of ...
The Roles of Acoustic and Visual Signals in the Reproductive Behavior of the Federally Threatened Pygmy Sculpin, Cottus paulus, (Cottidae)
(2009-07-02)
Animals use many modes of communication (i.e. tactile, visual, acoustic and chemical) for territory defense, resource defense, and/or courtship. These communication systems can be used singularly or combined together, such ...
Demonstration for Integration of Genetic Linkage and Physical Maps of Catfish Using BAC-Anchored Microsatellites
(2009-03-30)
Catfish is the major aquaculture species in the United States. The development of genetic linkage maps with high marker densities and the development of physical maps are important steps toward genome-enable genetic ...
Investigating Interactions Between Channel Catfish and Other Sport Fishes in Alabama’s State Public Fishing Lakes
(2009-02-23)
Channel catfish Ictalurus puntatus is a popular sportfish maintained by annual stocking in Alabama's State Public Fishing Lakes. Channel catfish may negatively affect bluegill Lepomis macrochirus and largemouth bass ...
Privately-Owned Small Impoundments of Central Alabama: A Survey and Evaluation Of Management Techniques and Enhancements
(2009-07-15)
Small impoundments are abundant and widespread throughout central Alabama, and support a large portion of recreational fishing effort. Because the quality of fishing in these ponds is directly related to the management ...
The Use of Ultrasonic Telemetry to Estimate Residency, Movement Patterns, and Mortality of Red Snapper, Lutjanus campechanus
(2009-07-07)
Site fidelity, emigration, and mortality were estimated from telemetry for large (500 – 860 mm TL) red snapper Lutjanus campechanus (N = 87) from four artificial and one natural reef in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. ...
Potassium Fertilization of Bluegill Ponds
(2009-11-18)
Bluegill ponds at Auburn University, Alabama were treated with potassium (K) fertilizer at rates of 0, 0.125, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 Kg/ha with either one or two ponds per rate. Concentrations of potassium in pond water ranged ...
Development of smoked and gelatin-based products from catfish
(2009-08-03)
Catfish is the most important aquaculture species in the southern United States. A major part of the catfish production is processed and sold in raw (fresh or frozen) form. There is a lack of catfish product forms in the ...
Hatchery, Nursery, Nutrition and Stock Evaluation of Redclaw Crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus
(2009-08-03)
The redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) aquaculture industry has developed rapidly in tropical and subtropical regions of the world during the last decade. Important advances have been made; however, technology for ...
Assembly of 500,000 Inter-Specific Catfish Expressed Sequence Tags and Large Scale Gene-Associated Marker Development for Genome Selection Studies
(2009-08-05)
Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) sequencing is one of the most efficient means for gene discovery and gene expression profiling. With a good resource of ESTs, a large number of molecular markers can be identified, and issues ...
