This study compared the efficacy of different dietary algae on the growth and reproduction of the cyclopoid copepod Cyclopina kasignete, a potential live food species for fish larvae in aquaculture. The experimental diets for the copepod consisted of three monoalgal diets (Nannochloropsis oculata, Tisochrysis lutea and dry Melosira sp.) and two mixed algae diets (T. lutea?+?N. oculata, T. lutea?+?dry Melosira sp.). The experiment was carried out for 30 days, and the population growth, survival and reproductive performance (generation time, hatching rate, life spawning times, daily offspring production, eggs per sac, lifespan and sex ratio) were used to assess the responses of C. kasignete to different food types. Population growth, survival and reproductive capacities of C. kasignete were significantly affected by the mono and binary species of algal diets. The results showed that copepods exhibited superior growth, survival and productivity when fed on fresh T. lutea, dry Melosira sp. and a mixture of both species compared to other dietary treatments. Copepods produced comparable growth, survival and productivity when fed on diatoms (dry Melosira sp.) as a single or in combination with other algae. This study indicates that cyclopoid copepod C. kasignete grow fast and have the potential to serve as a live food for aquaculture. The algae T. lutea, dry Melosira sp. and their combination are appropriate food to sustain the growth and reproduction of this copepods in mass culture as a potential live food in fish hatchery.  相似文献

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Streptococcus agalactiae vaccine preparations, administered to tilapia broodstock, in preventing streptococcosis, through specific and non-specific immunity being transferred to the offspring. The study was conducted in two phases. The first was the vaccination of the broodstock using a whole-cell vaccine, an extracellular product (ECP) vaccine, and a combination of the two with a ratio of 1:1. The vaccines were administered to the broodstock 2 and 3 weeks before spawning. The second phase was the challenge test for larvae produced by vaccinated broodstock, and larvae from the unvaccinated control broodstock, through immersion in a suspension of 107 cfu mL?1 pathogenic S. agalactiae for 30 min, at ages 7, 14, 21, and 28 days post-hatching. The parameters evaluated were the broodstock’s blood profile, antibody-lysozyme (in broodstock, eggs, and larvae), and the larvae’s relative percent survival. Treatment with the combined vaccine administered 3 weeks before spawning resulted in the broodstock having significantly better antibody levels, lysozyme activity, and hematology profiles, compared to the other treatments (p?<?0.05). In addition, the larvae produced by broodstock subjected to this treatment, when challenged with the pathogenic S. agalactiae at ages 7, 14, 21, and 28 days, had RPS values of 95.24, 83.33, 72.22, and 56.02%, respectively. It was concluded that the administration of the “whole-cell/ECP” combination vaccine preparation to tilapia broodstock in the 3 weeks before spawning can increase specific and non-specific immunity in the broodstock and protect the larvae from S. agalactiae infection.  相似文献

In aquaculture, nutrition and supplemented diets have been shown to affect broodstock reproductive performance. In this study, we investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with Cymbopogon flexuosus essential oil (CFEO) microcapsules on reproductive-related parameters in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) male broodfish. Adult male broodstocks were separated into three groups according to the concentrations of supplemented CFEO (0.0?=?control; 1.0 or 3.0 mL per kg of diet). After 20 days under experimental conditions, the animals were euthanized and the gonads were harvested for gonadosomatic index, sperm analysis, oxidative stress, and histopathology; testosterone levels were measured in the plasma; gene expression of prl, smtl, pomca, and pomcb was assessed in the pituitary gland by real-time PCR. The results showed no alterations on reproductive parameters in R. quelen males treated with Cymbopogon flexuosus essential oil compared to the control-diet animals. In conclusion, CFEO microcapsules supplied for 20 days in the concentrations of 1.00 or 3.00 mL per kilogram of diet did not affect the reproduction criteria evaluated in this study in male silver catfish.  相似文献

The current study was conducted to investigate the effect of ExcelMOS® in enhancing the immune system of Sparus aurata broodstock and their impact on offspring health through displaying the maternal transfer of immunity. Broodstock were divided into two groups: one was injected intraperitoneally with ExcelMOS® 1 month before spawning, while the other group was used as a control (without injection). Comprehensive increase in survival rate was observed for larvae hatched from ExcelMOS®-injected broodstock than those of the control (P?≤?0.05). Hematological analysis showed increases in leukocyte count and hematocrit percentage (P?≤?0.05) and significant enhancement in immune assays as phagocytic, respiratory burst, lysozyme activities in ExcelMOS®-injected broodstock (P?≤?0.05). Additionally, total immunoglobulin levels in the serum, eggs, and larvae resulted from ExcelMOS®-injected broodstock were highly significant (P?≤?0.05) than those in the control ones. Transmission electron microscopy and semi-thin sections in posterior intestine of ExcelMOS®-injected broodstock revealed reinforcement of the epithelial barrier structure, intestinal integrity, and functionality in combination with the stimulation of innate immune system. In conclusion, immunostimulation of Sparus aurata broodstock using ExcelMOS® has improved survival of larvae and enhanced both innate and adaptive immune defense mechanisms. Further investigations are required to show the effect of ExcelMOS® on fish cultured in intensive culture systems.  相似文献

Abstract The effectiveness of live-algae replacement diets for the conditioning and spawning success of adult Manila clam, Tapes philippinarum (Adams and Reeve), was assessed. Two dried diets were tested: a diet of dried Tetrasetmis suecica (Kylin) Butch, and a mixed diet of dried T. suecica (70%) and dried Cyclotella cryptica Reimann et al. (30%). These diets were compared with three live diets: Skeletonema costatum (Grev.) Cleve, Dunaliella tertiolecta (Butcher) and T. suecica. An unfed group was used as a control. The same ration (dry weight) of food was supplied for all groups at 6% of the dry meat weight per day. The broodstock were conditioned for 7 weeks. After 4 weeks none of the animals was ready to spawn. After 6 weeks all the diets promoted spawning and after 7 weeks the unfed group also spawned. It seems that dried algal diets are effective for conditioning and spawning of Manila clams, as the dry meat weight, condition index and fecundity of broodstock fed these diets were significantly greater than for unfed animals. However, the fecundity and proportion of parental lipid released in the eggs of clams conditioned with dried diets was lower than for the clams conditioned with live algae.  相似文献

The effect of three mono‐specific and four combinations of the diatoms Chaetoceros muelleri, Chaetoceros calcitrans, and the chlorophyte Tetraselmis suecica on survival, development, and dry weight of the western school prawn, Metapenaeus dalli, was assessed from protozoea I until mysis I. The development and dry weight of larvae were significantly greater when fed diets comprising C. muelleri and/or T. suecica. A fourth diet, consisting of all three microalgal species also performed just as well. Survival alone was a poor measure of the performance of the various diets. Larvae fed with C. calcitrans, either alone or in a mixed diet with either C. muelleri or T. suecica, had significantly slower development and lower dry weight. Overall performance, assessed using the normalized biomass development index, determined that both mono‐specific and mixed diets containing C. muelleri and T. suecica were among the best for M. dalli larvae. These results for M. dalli are consistent with those found for commercially grown penaeid prawns. This study enhances the limited knowledge on the feeding requirements of metapenaeid prawn larvae. Moreover, the results will help improve hatchery methods for the aquaculture‐based enhancement of M. dalli in the Swan‐Canning Estuary and potentially increase the abundance of this iconic recreational species.  相似文献

The effects of three artificial diets (S1, S2 and S3) on survival, growth and biochemical composition of one-year-old pearl oyster Pinctada martensii were investigated. Six experimental groups (EG1, EG2, EG3, EG4, EG5 and EG6) and one control group (CG) were set up. EG1, EG2 and EG3 were solely fed on S1, S2 and S3, respectively. EG4, EG5 and EG6 were fed on mixed diets, as follows: S1 and Platymonas subcordiformis; S2 and P. subcordiformis; and S3 and P. subcordiformis, respectively. CG was fed on only P. subcordiformis. All groups were continuously fed for 60 days. Survival, growth and biochemical composition of soft tissues were compared across the groups. Results showed that survival rate, the absolute growth rate (AGR) and relative growth rate (RGR) of shell length did not differ significantly across the groups (p > 0.05). The AGR and RGR of total weight differed significantly among the groups (p < 0.05). AGR and RGR of shell length and total weight were the highest in EG5 and the lowest in EG1. Gross fat content showed insignificant differences among the groups (p > 0.05). However, gross protein content and ash content showed significant differences across the groups (p < 0.05). The gross protein of the groups solely fed on artificial diets was lower than those of the groups fed on mixtures of artificial diets and microalgae or single microalgae. The contents of other amino acids, total amino acids (TAAs) and essential amino acids (EAAs) showed significant differences across the groups (p < 0.05). TAA, EAA and delicious amino acids of the groups fed solely on artificial diets were lower than those of the groups fed on mixtures of artificial diets and microalgae or single microalgae. Results indicated that the artificial diet (S2) can serve as substitutes of microalgal diets for P. martensii.  相似文献

We isolated the rotifers Brachionus ibericus and Proales similis from the sediment of shrimp tanks and studied their individual demographic characters and competition between them at two food levels (0.25?×?106, 1.00?×?106 cells ml?1 of Nannochloropsis oculata at 25 °C) and salinities ranging from 10 to 30‰. Our hypothesis was that growth rates would be higher with increasing food levels and salinities. Observations were taken twice a day for life table studies and daily once for population growth experiments. Using survivorship and fecundity data, we derived various life history variables. Although the average life span (7.6?±?0.4 days) and gross reproductive rate (33.8?±?2.9 neonate female?1 day?1) of B. ibericus were higher than those of P. similis (average life span 5.4?±?0.6 days and gross reproductive rate 13.0?±?0.6 neonate female?1 day?1), the population growth experiments showed that P. similis had higher r values (0.32?±?0.005 day?1) than B. ibericus (0.23?±?0.002 day?1) at 1.0?×?106 cells ml?1 of N. oculata. The rotifer P. similis was more adversely affected due to the presence of B. ibericus than vice versa. The data are important for developing techniques for a large-scale culture of these rotifers as food in aquaculture.  相似文献

Ovigerous American lobsters (Homarus americanus) display a protracted period of ovary maturation and maternal care when incubating their eggs, potentially influencing offspring fitness. Lobsters consume a wide range of food items; however, trap bait may comprise a larger proportion of their diet in some fished areas compared to non-fished areas, and the long-term consequences of a bait-based diet remain largely unexplored in lobsters. We tested the hypothesis that disproportionate amounts of bait in the diets of pre-ovigerous females affect the quality of their ovaries and eggs. We held pre-ovigerous lobsters (n?=?29) over a period of ~?300 days (range?=?270–378) and fed them diets of herring bait, natural prey items (crab, mussel, urchin, macroalgae), or a combination of both diet types. Nutritional status, measured as biweekly blood indices and total glucose levels, suggest differences between lobsters fed a natural or combination diet and lobsters fed a bait-based diet (ANOVA; P?<?0.05). We found that bait diets contained more protein (58.5%) and lipids (31.6%) compared to natural diets (34.5 and 13.2%, respectively) and lipid levels in ovaries and eggs significantly correlated with each other for all treatments (r?=?0.76, n?=?15, P?=?0.028). Histopathological analysis indicates that ovaries contained more variable maturation in starved lobsters or those fed with bait, with some animals showing delayed gonad maturation. Results suggest that a varied diet promotes the overall fitness of ovigerous lobsters and the associated reserves that are used for ovarian development and subsequent oocyte formation.  相似文献

Portunus trituberculatus broodstock were stocked in plastic tanks to evaluate the effects of starvation and feeding on gonadal development, blood chemistry, fatty acid composition, and expression of vitellogenin (Vtg) and fatty acid-binding protein genes (FABP) in females. Two treatments (starved and fed) were randomly assigned to triplicate groups of 90 swimming crab broodstock (approximately 230 ± 45 g). In the starved treatment, crabs were starved for 30 days, whereas in the fed treatment crabs were fed once a day with clams. The gonadosomatic index decreased significantly in starved crabs (P < 0.05), as did the serum glucose and cholesterol concentrations; conversely, the total protein concentration in serum significantly increased (P < 0.05). In the ovary, there was a significant relative decline of 18:0, 16:1n-7 and 20:1n-9 fatty acids and relative increases of 20:4n-6, 22:6n-3, 18:1n-9 and 20:5n-3 in starved crabs compared to fed crabs (P < 0.05). Relative expression of Vtg in the ovary decreased significantly in starved crabs (P < 0.05), while there was no significant difference in hepatopancreas Vtg expression between starved and fed crabs (P > 0.05). Starvation suppressed gonadal development in female swimming crab broodstock.  相似文献

Arginine vasotocin is a hormone produced in the hypothalamus of teleost fish that has been shown to regulate gonad development and sexual behavior. To study the role of arginine vasotocin in the gonadal cycle of the hermaphrodite gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata, we cloned the seabream arginine vasotocin (avt) complementary DNA (cDNA). We investigated the expression of brain avt throughout the gonad cycle using real-time quantitative PCR and compared its expression levels to the expression levels of two key gonadal steroidogenic enzymes, cyp19a1a and cyp11b2. In July, when the process of sex reversal is thought to begin, avt expression was elevated over the previous 2 months. Avt in the brain remained at or above the level of July until November then peaked again in December. There was no difference between males and females in the expression levels of brain avt throughout the year. However, only in ambisexual fish was the expression of the cyp19a1a gonadal aromatase correlated to the expression of avt in the brain. Cyp11b2 did not show any correlation to brain avt expression. We also found that females had more intense body coloration than males and that this intensity peaked prior to spawning. Avt expression and female coloration were positively correlated. The fact that brain avt expression was lowest during gonad quiescence, together with the observation of a correlation between brain avt with gonadal cyp19a1a and body coloration during that time suggests that avt may play a role during the process of sex reversal and spawning of the gilthead seabream.  相似文献

The optimum culture conditions of the local strain Chaetoceros calcitrans were determined to improve biomass and reduce cost of production. Under outdoor culture conditions, higher cell density was attained when the cultures were enriched with Tungkang Marine Research Laboratory (TMRL) medium composed of cheap technical grade reagents and cultured at 25 g L?1 salinity. The cultures were lighted with two 40 W cool-white GE fluorescent tubes (24–35 μmol photon m?2 s?1). Using semi-continuous culture system under established optimum culture conditions, C. calcitrans can be re-cultured thrice and concentrated at each culture cycle using electrolytic flocculation method to produce 4.6 kg m?3 of diatom paste. The viability of concentrated C. calcitrans after 3 months of storage was comparable to live diatom cells. Simple preservation technique by low-temperature storage is convenient for storing algal concentrates for use as starter cultures and for feeding invertebrates. The paste costs USD 8.24 kg?1 inclusive of the assets and flocculation materials for culturing and harvesting the diatom, respectively. This study established the suitable conditions for mass culture of C. calcitrans and produced concentrated diatoms in paste form that is readily available for aquaculture hatcheries at a lower cost.  相似文献

Heat stress is one of the major environmental concerns in global warming regime and rising temperature has resulted in mass mortalities of animals including fishes. Therefore, strategies for high temperature stress tolerance and ameliorating the effects of heat stress are being looked for. In an earlier study, we reported that Nrf-2 (nuclear factor E2-related factor 2) mediated upregulation of antioxidative enzymes and heat shock proteins (Hsps) provide survivability to fish under heat stress. In this study, we have evaluated the ameliorative potential of dietary curcumin, a potential Nrf-2 inducer in heat stressed cyprinid Puntius sophore. Fishes were fed with diet supplemented with 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% curcumin at the rate 2% of body weight daily in three separate groups (n = 40 in each group) for 60 days. Fishes fed with basal diet (without curcumin) served as the control (n = 40). Critical thermal maxima (CTmax) was determined for all the groups (n = 10, in duplicates) after the feeding trial. Significant increase in the CTmax was observed in the group fed with 1.5% curcumin- supplemented fishes whereas it remained similar in groups fed with 0.5%, and 1% curcumin-supplemented diet, as compared to control. To understand the molecular mechanism of elevated thermotolerance in the 1.5% curcumin supplemented group, fishes were given a sub-lethal heat shock treatment (36 °C) for 6 h and expression analysis of nrf-2, keap-1, sod, catalase, gpx, and hsp27, hsp60, hsp70, hsp90, and hsp110 was carried out using RT-PCR. In the gill, expression of nrf-2, sod, catalase, gpx, and hsp60, hsp70, hsp90, and hsp110 was found to be elevated in the 1.5% curcumin-fed heat-shocked group compared to control and the basal diet-fed, heat-shocked fishes. Similarly, in the liver, upregulation in expression of nrf-2, sod, catalase, and hsp70 and hsp110 was observed in 1.5% curcumin supplemented and heat shocked group. Thus, this study showed that supplementation of curcumin augments tolerance to high temperature stress in P. sophore that could be attributed to nrf-2-induced upregulation of antioxidative enzymes sod, catalase, gpx, and the hsps.  相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) transgenic (T) coho salmon consistently show remarkably enhanced growth associated with increased appetite and food consumption compared to non-transgenic wild-type (NT) coho salmon. To improve understanding of the mechanism by which GH overexpression mediates food intake and digestion in T fish, feed intake and gastric evacuation rate (over 7 days) were measured in size-matched T and NT coho salmon. T fish displayed greatly enhanced feed intake levels (~ 2.5-fold), and more than 3-fold increase in gastric evacuation rates relative to NT coho salmon. Despite the differences in feed intake, no differences were noted in the time taken from first ingestion of food to stomach evacuation between genotypes. These results indicate that enhanced feed intake is coupled with an overall increased processing rate to enhance energy intake by T fish. To further investigate the molecular basis of these responses, we examined the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of several genes in appetite- and gastric-regulation pathways (Agrp1, Bbs, Cart, Cck, Glp, Ghrelin, Grp, Leptin, Mc4r, Npy, and Pomc) by qPCR analyses in the brain (hypothalamus, preoptic area) and pituitary, and in peripheral tissues associated with digestion (liver, stomach, intestine, and adipose tissue). Significant increases in mRNA levels were found for Agrp1 in the preoptic area (POA) of the brain, and Grp and Pomc in pituitary for T coho salmon relative to NT. Mch and Npy showed significantly lower mRNA levels than NT fish in all brain tissues examined across all time-points after feeding. Mc4r and Cart for T showed significantly lower mRNA levels than NT in the POA and hypothalamus, respectively. In the case of peripheral tissues, T fish had lower mRNA levels of Glp and Leptin than NT fish in the intestine and adipose tissue, respectively. Grp, Cck, Bbs, Glp, and Leptin in stomach, adipose tissue, and/or intestine showed significant differences across the time-points after feeding, but Ghrelin showed no significant difference between T and NT fish in all tested tissues.  相似文献

Rhodomyrtus tomentosa is a medicinal plant that shows biological effects including immunomodulatory activity on human and other mammals but not in fish. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro immunomodulatory effects of R. tomentosa leaf extract and its active compound, rhodomyrtone, on the immune responses, using rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) head kidney (HK) macrophages as a model. The tested immune functions included the expression of genes involved in innate immune and inflammatory responses and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Gene expression was evaluated after exposure to 10 μg mL?1 of R. tomentosa and 1 μg mL?1 of rhodomyrtone for 4 and 24 h. R. tomentosa and rhodomyrtone induced changes in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (il1β, il8, and tnfα), anti-inflammatory cytokines (il10 and tgfβ), inducible enzymes (inos, cox2, and arginase), and an antioxidant enzyme (gpx1). Co-exposure of R. tomentosa with LPS resulted in a prominent reduction in the expression of genes related to an inflammatory process (il1β, il8, tnfα, inos, saa, hepcidin, and gpx1), suggesting anti-inflammatory effects. Similarly, co-exposure of rhodomyrtone with LPS led to a downregulation of inflammation-related genes (il1β, inos, saa, and hepcidin). In addition, exposure to both natural plant products caused a reduction in cellular ROS levels by HK macrophages. The present results indicate that R. tomentosa and rhodomyrtone exerted immunostimulatory and anti-inflammatory effects on fish macrophages, thus opening up the possibility of using these natural products to further develop immunostimulants for health management in aquaculture.  相似文献

Gonadic conditioning and maturation of queen clam Dosinia ponderosa fed three microalgae (Isochrysis galbana, Tetraselmis suecica and Chaetoceros calcitrans) at three temperatures (20, 25 and 30°C) were assessed. Histological analysis showed six gonadic stages, indicators of maturity. The evaluation included sex proportion, oocyte diameter and frequency of gonadic stages after 22 (middle of trial) and 44 days (end of trial). At day 22, around 60% of females conditioned at 20°C, reached stage III (advances grade of maturation) when fed T. suecica. At day 44, around 50% of females were on stage III, conditioned at 20 and 25°C and fed T. suecica and C. calcitrans. For males, the best combination was C. calcitrans at 20 and 25°C. The temperature of 30°C resulted inadequate for maturation, especially when fed the diatom Isochrysis galbana. High mortalities occurred at that temperature with the three microalgal diets, especially in females. The results permits conclude that T. suecica and C. calcitrans are good sources of feed for D. ponderosa and that the best range of temperature for gonadic development is 22–25°C. These results may be basic for a best management and culture of this clam.  相似文献

The present study was designed to investigate the immunomodulatory effects of Aloe vera, Curcuma longa, Echinacea purpurea, Lavandula officinalis, Origanum vulgare, Panax ginseng, and Rheum officinale extracts on leukocytes purified from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) head kidney. The cells were cultured in a medium containing increasing doses of extracts; afterwards, they were tested for reactive oxygen species production after stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and proliferation in the presence or absence of phytohemagglutinin from Phaseolus vulgaris (PHA-P). After a 2-h exposure, the extracts of L. officinalis, O. vulgare, and R. officinale strongly reduced the oxidative burst activity of PMA-stimulated leukocytes, in a dose-dependent manner (P ≤ 0.05). A. vera, C. longa, E. purpurea, and P. ginseng extracts reduced this response with lower efficacy and especially at lower concentrations. On the contrary, the highest concentration of ginseng extract stimulated the respiratory burst of leukocytes compared to untreated control cells. After a 72-h exposure, the extracts of L. officinalis, R. officinale, C. longa, E. purpurea, and P. ginseng had a clear dose-dependent stimulatory effect on leukocyte proliferation (P ≤ 0.05). The results suggest that these medicinal plants can be considered as reliable sources of new antioxidants or immunostimulants to be used in aquaculture.  相似文献

In the whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei, the existence of six sinus gland peptides (SGPs) possessing vitellogenesis-inhibiting hormone (VIH) function has been previously demonstrated. Genomic and cDNA sequence information for two of these is already known. Here, we cloned cDNAs for the remaining three, i.e., those encoding Liv-SGP-A, -B, and -F. The deduced amino acid sequences were comprised of a signal peptide, a CHH precursor-related peptide, a mature peptide, and a C-terminal amidation signal. The genomic DNA for Liv-SGP-A, -B, -C, -F, and -G, was found to be organized as three exons and two introns. The insertion of the two introns were conserved in all VIH genes, with intron I being inserted six residues following the signal peptide, and intron II after the 40th residue of the mature peptide. We also quantified the relative simultaneous expression of Liv-SGP-A, -B, -C, -F, and -G in relation to molting and unilateral eyestalk ablation. The expression levels of each gene in the eyestalks of adults did not change significantly during molting or following unilateral eyestalk ablation. However, unilateral eyestalk ablation significantly decreased expression levels at 10 and 20 days for Liv-SGP-A and -C, and at 20 days for Liv-SGP-G in the eyestalks of subadults. This study has therefore clarified the genomic structure of the five major subtype I VIHs in L. vannamei, and elucidated their expression levels in the eyestalks in relation to molting and unilateral eyestalk ablation.  相似文献

Molecular markers that allow selection of juveniles and broodstock with a high growth performance are useful for the aquaculture industry. In this study, association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the Activin type IIB receptor (LcActRIIB) and growth-related parameters of Asian seabass Lates calcarifer juveniles were examined by PCR-direct sequencing. Three SNPs (G>Ac.965+g.7, C>A>T c.965+g.33 and G>A c.965+g.189) generating seven composite SNP genotypes (diplotypes) were found in the LcActRIIB gene segment (398 bp). Among three identified SNPs, only a G>Ac.965+g.7 SNP showed significant association with growth traits (average body weight, total length, hepatic weight and hepatosomatic index) of examined fish (P < 0.01). Significant association between diplotypes and growth-related parameters were found. Juveniles exhibiting diplotypes I–V showed greater growth-related parameters than those exhibiting diplotypes VI (P < 0.001; N = 57). Simple methods for rapid genotyping of a G>Ac.965+g.7 SNP were successfully developed based on gel-based bi-allelic PCR amplification of specific alleles (Bi-PASA) and real-time PCR-based PASA analyses (N = 99). Identical genotypes were consistently obtained from different detection methods.  相似文献
