    SUITABILITY OF FARM PONDS FOR AQUACULTURE IN DIFFERENT REGIONS OF DAKSHINA KANNADA DISTRICT
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2011) HARSHA NAYAK, b.f.sc.
    Aquatic systems are those in which the primary medium is water which is inhabited by many organisms. This broad aspect covers a wide variety of habitat types, although they are divided into two separate groups viz, marine and freshwater systems. Research on aquatic system has generally reflected this division viz.. Limnology - the study of inland waters and Oceanography - the study of marine systems, proceeding more or less independently for many years.

    PHYSIOLOGICAL DISTURBANCES IN COMMON CARP (Cyprinus carpio) AS AN INDICATOR OF POLLUTION STRESS
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2011) MUTTAPPA KHAVL, b.f.Sc.
    Aquatic ecosystems are being contaminated rapidly by xenobiotics of variegated nature. The impact of aquatic pollution is so alarming that it has attracted even politicians and administrators apart from scientists and technocrats. Sincere efforts are seldom made in developing countries to evolve methods for pollution monitoring and control, in parallel with the rapid advancements in industry, spreading of urban settlements and technological gallops. Methods for effective abatement of pollution are necessary and proper implementation of legislation and enforcement of existing regulations are highly essential considering the deleterious effects likely to occur to the healthy aquatic system.

    Evaluation of biofilm on different substrates in shrimp culture pond
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2011) SRUTHISREE, C., B.F.Sc.
    Shrimp farming is an emerging industry in tropical and subtropical regions around the world with current production estimated at 6.6 mmt. per year (FAO, 2010). Shrimp farming is an aquaculture business for the cultivation of marine shrimps for human consumption. Commercial shrimp farming has begun in the 1970s and production grew steadily to match the market demands of the United States. About 75% of cultured shrimp has been produced in Asia alone, with major contribution from China and Thailand. Although there are many species of shrimp and prawns are available, only those which are having commercial value are being cultivated. Shrimps belong to penaeids and genus Penaeus.
