Abstract

Three experiments, each of 8-days, were conducted to evaluate the effects of (5) N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) either alone or in combination on the development and survival of Macrobrachium rosenbergh larvae. Experiment 1 was carried out as preliminary trial to confirm whether AHL mixture added daily at 1 mg/L concentration could have any negative effect on the larval performance. In experiment 2, it was verified whether the negative effect on the larvae was due to individual AHL or their interactions and experiment 3 was carried out to determine the critical threshold dose of AHL mixture. Results revealed that AHL mixture added daily at 1 mg/L concentration significantly (P0.05) of any of the AHL molecules added individually at 1 mg/L concentration on the development and survival of the prawn larvae. The AHL molecule C4-HST significantly (P
