Book (stand-alone)Introductions and movement of Penaeus vannamei and Penaeus stylirostris in Asia and the Pacific 2004
Also available in:
No results found.Both Penaeus vannamei and Penaeus stylirostris originate on the western Pacific coast of Latin America. They were introduced in the early 1970s to the Pacific Islands, where research was conducted into breeding and their potential for aquaculture. Beginning in 1996, P. vannamei was introduced into Asia on a commercial scale. The main reason behind the importation was the perceived poor performance, slow growth rate and disease susceptibility of the major indigenous cultured shrimp species, P. ch inensis in China and P. monodon elsewhere in Asia. However, there remain many unanswered questions regarding the possible effects of introduced species. This report has attempted to gather all the currently available data on the extent of P. vannamei and P. stylirostris importation and culture in Asia, their advantages and disadvantages and potential problems. It offers recommendations, for both governments and the private sector, aimed at controlling the importation, testing and culture of thes e species. -
Book (series)Introductions and movement of two penaeid shrimp species in Asia and the Pacific 2005Both Penaeus vannamei1 and P. stylirostris are introduced species in Asia and the Pacific. They have now become important commercial shrimp species in many countries in Asia. The main reason behind the importation of P. vannamei to Asia has been the perceived poor performance, slow growth rate and disease susceptibility of the major indigenous cultured shrimp species, P. chinensis in China and P. monodon virtually everywhere else. However, for many reasons, particularly with the evidence of the introduction of exotic viruses to the region, there has been caution on the part of many Asian governments for the introduction of P. vannamei and P. stylirostris. Nevertheless, this caution has not been demonstrated by the private sector, which has been bringing stocks of illegal and often disease carrying P. vannamei into Asia from many locations, as well as moving infected stocks within Asia. The commercial success of these introductions, despite disease problems, has allowed the development of substantial culture industries for these alien penaeids within Asia, particularly in China and Thailand. One effect of this is that it is rapidly becoming difficult to control the importation and development of this new industry. This report attempts to gather all of the currently available data on the extent of P. vannamei and P. stylirostris importation and culture in Asia, its potential problems and benefits, and in this way to serve as a source document from which to investigate further m eans by which control over this issue might be re-established. Recommendations aimed at controlling the importation, testing and culture of these species have been made for all levels and are included in this report.

Book (series)Manejo sanitario y mantenimiento de la bioseguridad de los laboratorios de postlarvas de camarón blanco (Penaeus vannamei) en América Latina 2004La acuicultura representa un importante sector de la produccin alimentaria mundial y constituye una importante fuente de protenas, empleo e ingresos, siendo la base del sustento de una gran parte de la poblacin mundial. En concreto, el camarn es un producto de alto valor, que se produce principalmente en Asia y Amrica Latina, fundamentalmente para su exportacin, generando riqueza en muchos de los pases en vas de desarrollo de estas regiones. Durante la pasada dcada, surgieron considera bles problemas en el cultivo del camarn, principalmente debido a enfermedades virales. En particular, Amrica Latina, donde Penaeus vannamei es la principal especie cultivada, ha sufrido severos problemas a consecuencia de enfermedades de tipo vrico desde principios de los noventa. A partir de los esfuerzos realizados en la bsqueda de soluciones duraderas para combatir los problemas derivados de las enfermedades que afectan al cultivo de P. vannamei en Amrica Latina, se advirti que la s iembra de postlarvas sanas es un factor esencial en la mejora de la supervivencia durante la produccin. Sin embargo, para producir con xito postlarvas sanas, es necesaria la asimilacin de los principios bsicos sobre el manejo sanitario y la bioseguridad en el laboratorio. Este documento ofrece una gua tcnica sobre cmo mejorar la sanidad y la calidad de las postlarvas producidas en laboratorio, interviniendo en diferentes puntos del proceso de produccin para la optimizacin de las inst alaciones de mantenimiento y cra, maduracin de los reproductores, cra de las larvas, alimentacin, gestin de la calidad del agua, bioseguridad, y manejo sanitario.
