Culture of Pacific white shrimp juveniles in super-intensive conditions
Results of this study showed that L. vannamei juveniles can be cultured at high densities with adequate survival, growth and feeding efficiency, and with minimal water exchange or full water reuse through recirculation.

Improving the osmoregulatory capacity of Pacific white shrimp grown in low salinity
Study shows it is possible to improve shrimp production in low-salinity waters by correcting magnesium and potassium deficiencies.
Health & Welfare
Shrimp grown in biofloc systems with different carbon sources
Study shows biofloc has positive effects on the immune response of Pacific white shrimp juveniles and can result in increased resistance to the IMNV virus.

Detection of an amoebic parasite in cultured Pacific white shrimp
This study describes an amoebic parasite infection in Pacific white shrimp cultured in an anonymous shrimp hatchery. The diseased shrimp exhibited grossly reduced appetite, lethargy, respiratory distress, eroded carapaces and blackened gills.

Intercropping silver pompano and shrimp in India
This study evaluated intercropping production of silver pompano in a shrimp farm in Northwest India to determine its economic and technical viability.

Challenging Pacific white postlarvae with AHPND
Study results indicate that P. vannamei challenged with AHPND in biofloc had higher survival rates than shrimp challenged in clear water.

Use algorithms to calculate feed for Pacific white shrimp
Existing dynamic models applied to the growth of Pacific white shrimp can describe and predict feeding behavior to help farmers achieve maximum benefits.

Comparing biofloc, clear-water and hybrid RAS systems as shrimp nurseries
This study compared three types of RAS nurseries for shrimp: biofloc (BF), clear-water (CW), and hybrid RAS (HY). Results showed that differences between treatments in terms of shrimp survival, mean harvest weight, specific growth rate, and feed conversion ratio were not significant.

Intensive production of Pacific white shrimp in a photo-heterotrophic, hypersaline system: Part 1
This study showed that the use of a hypersaline system for shrimp culture with minimal seawater replacement can produce results comparable to those obtained in marine or brackish shrimp farming systems.
