Effects of temperature on reproduction and survival of the calanoid copepod Pseudodiaptomus pelagicus (2009, background): “Several small paracalanid species have also recently shown promise for mass scale culture (McKinnon et al., 2003; Shields et al., 2005; Vanderlugt and Lenz, 2008).”
A review of the use of copepods in marine fish larviculture (2011, background): “On the other hand, it is worthwhile to note that McKinnon et al. (2003) reported a maximum density of 8 B. similis copepods per millilitre in their cultures.”
The effects of algal diets on population growth and egg hatching success of the tropical calanoid copepod, Acartia sinjiensis (2007, background): “…species with small mouth-gape sizes, including many high value reef fish species, such as tropical groupers Epinephelus sp. (Knuckey et al., 2000; McKinnon et al., 2003; Toledo et al., 2005), snapper Pagrus sp. (Payne, 2000) and Lutjanus sp. (Doi et al., 1997; Ogle et al., 2005; Phelps et al.,…”
Development of Captive Breeding Techniques for Marine Ornamental Fish: A Review (2010, background): “Gut analyses of wild caught marine fish larvae have revealed a wide range of ingested prey, including various life stages of copepods, protozoans, dinofagellates, and larvae of various marine organisms (Watanabe and Kiron, 1994; Holt 2003; McKinnon et al., 2003).”
Lipid and fatty acid yield of nine stationary-phase microalgae: Applications and unusual C24–C28 polyunsaturated fatty acids (2005, background): “To our knowledge there are no reports of Heterocapsa niei producing toxins and it has been successfully trialed in copepod aquaculture and may have wider applicability (McKinnon et al., 2003).”
Biochemical composition of copepods for evaluation of feed quality in production of juvenile marine fish (2008, background): “This indicates that the diverse phytoplankton and protozoan communities in Svartatjern were conserved, preventing extreme lipid and fatty acid profiles which can appear when one or two sub-optimal algal species are used in intensive copepod culture systems (McKinnon et al., 2003).”
