The experimental groups were designed as 2-way layout experiment (4x4 type): factor A, cholesterol content (%) in diets; factor B, soybean PL content (%) in diets. The zoea1 larvae of P.japonicus were reared with 16 defined diets containing carrageenan as a binder for 7 days. The effects of cholesterol in improving growth and survival of P.japonicus larvae seemed not to be affected by the dietary levels of soybean PL. The optimum levels of cholesterol and soybean PL for P.japonicus larvae were estimated to be 1.0% and 3.0%, respectively, when pollack liver oil was used as basal lipid sources.}, pages = {193--199}, title = {Requirements of the Larval Prawn, Penaeus japonicus, for Cholesterol and Soybean Phospholipids}, volume = {31}, year = {} }
