Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone) grown in ponds are exposed to salinities of less than 5 g L?1 during inland shrimp culture or to more than 40 g L?1 from evaporation and reduced water exchange in dry, hot climates. However, dietary requirements for shrimp grown in low or high salinities are not well defined, particularly for fatty acids. Feeding shrimp postlarvae with highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) enhances tolerance to acute exposure to low salinity, as a result of better nutritional status, or/and specific effects of HUFA on membrane function and osmoregulation mechanisms. This study analysed the effect of HUFA supplementation (3% vs. 34%) on L. vannamei juveniles reared for 21 days at low (5 g L?1), medium (30 g L?1) and high salinities (50 g L?1). Juveniles grown at 5 g L?1 had lower survival compared with controls (30 g L?1) or shrimp grown at 50 g L?1, but no significant effect on survival was observed as a result of HUFA enrichment. In contrast, growth was significantly lower for shrimp grown at 50 g L?1, but this effect was compensated by the HUFA‐enriched diet. Osmotic pressure in haemolymph was affected by salinity, but not by HUFA enrichment. Shrimp fed HUFA‐enriched diets had significantly higher levels of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid in hepatopancreas and gills. These results demonstrate that growth at high salinities is enhanced with diets containing high HUFA levels, but that HUFA‐enriched diets have no effect on shrimp reared at low salinities.  相似文献

The effects of salinity on haemolymph osmolality, oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion were investigated in adult kuruma shrimp, Marsupenaeus japonicus (Bate), at salinities of 20, 25, 30 and 35 g L?1. Haemolymph osmolality showed a positive linear relationship (r2=0.9854) with medium osmolality. The isosmotic point calculated from this relationship was 1039 mOsm kg?1, which corresponds to a salinity of approximately 35 g L?1. The slope of the regression equation was very high (0.81), suggesting that M. japonicus adults are poor osmoregulators compared with the adults of other penaeids and to conspecific young. The difference between haemolymph and medium osmolality (DOP) was lowest at 35 g L?1 and highest at 20 g L?1. Thus, the minimum DOP coincided with the isosmotic point of the shrimp. The respiration rate was significantly lower at 30 g L?1 than at the other salinities. Ammonia excretion rates were inversely related with salinity and therefore were minimal at 35 g L?1. The results of this study suggest that the optimum salinity for adult kuruma shrimp is around 30–35 g L?1 and that even minor (e.g. 5 g L?1) deviations from this optimum cause significant physiological changes. Further, the observed increases in oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion during exposure to low salinities, which indicate higher energy expenditure and amino acid catabolism for osmoregulation, respectively, suggest that the growth efficiency of M. japonicus adults may be severely compromised by hypohaline water inflow into the rearing ponds.  相似文献

In this study, we tested the lower salinity tolerance of juvenile shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) at a relatively low temperature (20 °C). In the first of two laboratory experiments, we first abruptly transferred shrimps (6.91 ± 0.05 g wet weight, mean ± SE) from the rearing salinity (35 000 mg L?1) to salinities of 5000, 15 000, 25 000, 35 000 (control) and 40 000 mg L?1 at 20 °C. The survival of L. vannamei juvenile was not affected by salinities from 15 000 to 40 000 mg L?1 during the 96‐h exposure periods. Shrimps exposed to 5000 mg L?1 were significantly affected by salinity, with a survival of 12.5% after 96 h. The 24‐, 48‐ and 96‐h lethal salinity for 50% (LS50) were 7020, 8510 and 9540 mg L?1 respectively. In the second experiment, shrimps (5.47 ± 0.09 g wet weight, mean ± SE) were acclimatized to the different salinity levels (5000, 15 000, 25 000, 35 000 and 40 000 mg L?1) and then maintained for 30 days at 20 °C. Results showed that the survival was significantly lower at 5000 mg L?1 than at other salinity levels, but the final wet weight under 5000 mg L?1 treatment was significantly higher than those under other treatments (P<0.05). Feed intake (FI) of shrimp under 5000 mg L?1 was significantly lower than those of shrimp under 150 00–40 000 mg L?1; food conversion efficiency (FCE), however, showed a contrasting change (P<0.05). Furthermore, salinity significantly influenced the oxygen consumption rates, ammonia‐N excretion rates and the O/N ratio of test shrimps (P<0.05). The results obtained in our work provide evidence that L. vannamei juveniles have limited capacity to tolerate salinities <10 000 mg L?1 at a relatively low temperature (20 °C). Results also show that L. vannamei juvenile can recover from the abrupt salinity change between 15 000 and 40 000 mg L?1 within 24 h.  相似文献

The effects of salinity fluctuation on the growth, intermoult period and energy budget of juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei were investigated. Salinity fluctuation regimes were set in different frequencies of 2, 4 and 8 days and different amplitudes of ±2, ±5 and ±10 g L?1 from a control salinity of 20 g L?1. After a 48‐day feeding trial, the intermoult period of shrimp became shorter with increasing amplitude and frequency of salinity fluctuation (P<0.05). Both the frequency and the amplitude of salinity fluctuation had a significant effect on the growth rate of L. vannamei juveniles (P<0.05). At the frequency of 4 days, the highest growth rates occurred at amplitudes of 5–10 g L?1, whereas the growth rate was the lowest at 10 g L?1 when the frequency was reduced to 2 days. Feed intake (FI) and assimilation efficiency (AE) of shrimp were also significantly affected by the salinity fluctuation (P<0.05) and matched the growth rate response. The energy expenditures for growth (G), respiration (R), excretion (U) and exuviae (E) to the energy consumed as food (C) were not affected by salinity fluctuation. However, salinity fluctuation significantly affected the percentage of C as faeces (F), with the lowest value occurring at salinity amplitudes of 5–10 g L?1 and frequencies of 4–8 days. Therefore, salinity fluctuations (every 4 days by ±5–10 g L?1) result in higher growth rates than constant salinity conditions (20 g L?1) through greater FI, enhanced feed assimilation and reduced faecal energy loss.  相似文献

A series of four trials were conducted on inland saline groundwater of 58 g L?1 diluted to lower salinities up to 10 g L?1 and later manipulating its ionic concentrations to enhance the survival and growth of Penaeus monodon postlarvae (PL). In the first experiment, the survival of PL was tested at several salinities (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 58 g L?1), and the survival of PL was studied in comparison with natural sea water of similar salinities. Complete mortality of PL was observed at all salinity levels within 144 h. Longest survival for 96 h followed by 72 h was found at 10 and 20 g L?1 salinity respectively. In the second experiment, survival of PL was tested at 10–20 g L?1 salinity at different concentrations of calcium varying between 100 and 300 mg L?1. The survival of PL could be increased to 7 days at 12.5 g L?1 salinity by reducing the calcium level to 200 from 921.8 mg L?1 with magnesium and potassium levels of 208.5 and 30.03 mg L?1 respectively. In the third experiment, the survival of PL could be further enhanced to 18 days at the same salinity by increasing the magnesium level from 208.5 to 400 mg L?1 with potassium held at 30.03 mg L?1. Survival and growth of PL in inland saline water of 12.5 g L?1 salinity similar to performance in sea water of the same salinity was achieved by increasing the potassium concentration from 30.03 to 200 mg L?1 with calcium and magnesium levels of 199.5 and 199.4 mg L?1 respectively.  相似文献

Larvae of Metapenaeus monoceros (Fabricius) at protozoea 1 (PZ1) stage were stocked in 2‐L glass flasks to investigate the effects of various salinities (25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 ppt) on growth and survival until the post‐larval (PL) stages. The PZ larvae were not able to tolerate a sudden salinity drop of over 10 ppt. Yet, an abrupt salinity increase of over 10 or even 15 ppt did not cause mortality. The PZ larvae were successfully acclimated to different test salinities at a rate of 4 ppt h?1. The larvae displayed better tolerance to high rather than low salinities. The lowest and highest critical salinities appeared to be 22 and 55 ppt respectively. Taking into account survival, growth and development results, the optimal salinity for the larval culture of M. monoceros inhabiting the Eastern Mediterranean was 40 ppt. At this salinity, the PZ1 larvae were successfully cultured until PL1 stage within 11 days with 68% survival on a feeding regime of Tetraselmis chuii Kylin (Butcher) (20 cells μ L?1), Chaetoceros calcitrans Paulsen (50 cells μ L?1), Isochrysis galbana Parke (30 cells μL?1) and five newly hatched Artemia nauplii mL?1 from M1 onwards at 28 °C.  相似文献

In the field, moulting and salinity drop in the water due to excessive rainfall have been mentioned to be risk factors for WSSV outbreaks. Therefore, in this study, the effect of an acute change in environmental salinity and shedding of the old cuticle shell on the susceptibility of Penaeus vannamei to WSSV was evaluated by immersion challenge. For testing the effect of abrupt salinity stress, early premoult shrimp that were acclimated to 35 g L?1 were subjected to salinities of 50 g L?1, 35 g L?1, 20 g L?1, 10 g L?1 and 7 g L?1 or 5 g L?1 and simultaneously exposed to 105.5 SID50 mL?1 of WSSV for 5 h, after which the salinity was brought back to 35 g L?1. Shrimp that were transferred from 35 g L?1 to 50 g L?1, 35 g L?1 and 20 g L?1 did not become infected with WSSV. Shrimp became infected with WSSV after an acute salinity drop from 35 g L?1 to 10 g L?1 and lower. The mortality in shrimp, subjected to a salinity change to 10 g L?1, 7 g L?1 and 5 g L?1, was 6.7%, 46.7% and 53.3%, respectively (P < 0.05). For testing the effect of moulting, shrimp in early premoult, moulting and post‐moult were immersed in sea water containing 105.5 SID50 mL?1 of WSSV. The resulting mortality due to WSSV infection in shrimp inoculated during early premoult (0%), ecdysis (53.3%) and post‐moult (26.72%) demonstrated that a significant difference exists in susceptibility of shrimp during the short moulting process (P < 0.05). The findings of this study indicate that during a drop in environmental salinity lower than 10 g L?1 and ecdysis, shrimp are at risk for a WSSV infection. These findings have important implications for WSSV control measures.  相似文献

Juvenile New Zealand turbot, Colistium nudipinnis (Waite 1910), produced during the first aquaculture development project for this endemic flatfish, were reared at ambient and reduced salinities to determine the effect of salinity on growth and survival and the possible implications for aquaculture. Juveniles aged from 176 days to 17 months showed a high level of salinity tolerance, with minimal mortality attributable to salinity reduction over the range 33–18 g L?1. Growth rate was slightly increased at the slightly reduced salinity of 28 g L?1 (5 g L?1 below ambient) but was significantly decreased at the markedly reduced salinity of 18 g L?1. The growth response at 23 g L?1 was markedly different between ‘new’ water and water that was recycled from a previous set of rearing tanks, with juveniles reared in 23 g L?1‘new’ having a mean growth rate that was 29% lower than that of the control juveniles (in 33 g L?1‘new’ water), whereas juveniles in 23 g L?1‘reused’ water grew 45% faster than the controls. The implications of this novel effect are discussed in relation to the aquaculture potential of the New Zealand turbot.  相似文献

We investigated the growth of juvenile common snook (Centropomus undecimalis) reared at 25°C and 28°C and salinities of 0.3, 15, and 32 g L?1. Total length, weight, RNA/DNA, and protein/DNA ratios were determined after 90 days of experiment. Higher growth was observed at 28ºC compared with 25°C, at the same salinity. At 28°C and 15 g L?1 salinity, the weight (25.14 g) of juveniles was twice that of the juveniles reared at the lower temperature. At different salinities, only higher temperature affected growth, with higher weight values obtained at 15 g L?1 in comparison with 0.3 and 32 g L?1. Length was similar at 0.3 and 15 g L?1. The RNA/DNA ratio was greater in juveniles reared at a salinity of 15 g L?1 when compared with 0.3 and 32 g L?1. This study shows that the combination of higher temperature and intermediate salinity promotes better growth of common snook juveniles.  相似文献

First‐feeding halibut larvae (245‐day degrees; 40 days post hatch), reared at 34 g L?1 salinity and 7°C, were subjected to handling and allowed to recover in a range of salinities (0–34 g L?1) and at 10°C. Survival of the unfed larvae was determined daily for 18 days. Mortality rates approached 0 after 4 days in all treatments and presumed starvation‐induced mortality started at about 11 days post handling. By 20 days post treatments, all larvae had died. Salinities in the range of 10–20 g L?1 produced significantly (anova , P<0.01) higher initial survival (71–95%) than salinities above 20 g L?1 (24–48%) or below 10 g L?1 (0–19%) and this survival pattern changed little in unfed larvae for the first 10 days following the stressor. For example, 24 hour post handling, survival of halibut was improved from 28.7±16.5% (mean±standard error, n=3) at 34.0 g L?1 to 95.2±4.8% at 13 g L?1. A second‐order polynomial regression of 4‐day post‐handling survival data (y=?0.002x 2+0.0603x+0.0699, r2=0.3936) predicted a maximum survival at 15.1 g L?1 salinity. These results have important implications for halibut aquaculture and research when handling of larvae is unavoidable. For practical applications, we recommend reducing salinity of receiving waters to 15–20 g L?1 with a slow (3–4 days) reacclimation to ambient conditions.  相似文献

This paper reports on experiments conducted to examine the combined effects of salinity and potassium concentration on survival and growth of juvenile mulloway (Argyrosomus japonicus, Temminck and Schlegel) in inland saline groundwater. Three separate experiments were conducted in 20 (±1)°C water. In the first experiment, mulloway were held in 60 L aquaria (triplicate) with salinities of 5, 15, 25 or 35 g L?1 and potassium concentrations of 20%, 40%, 60% or 80% of the concentration present in oceanic water of the equivalent salinity in a 4 × 4 factorial combination for 7 days. Response surface contour diagrams were generated from survival data to estimate optimal conditions. The results showed that maximum survival of juvenile mulloway occurred at salinities of >14 g L?1 and potassium concentrations of >38%. Survival was lowest at salinities of <7 and >33 g L?1 and potassium concentrations of <25%. The second experiment was conducted with mulloway held in 60 L aquaria at salinities of 15, 25 or 35 g L?1 and potassium concentrations of 40%, 60%, 80% or 100% in a 3 × 4 factorial combination for 44 days. Optimal conditions for maximum survival and growth of mulloway were within a salinity range of 15–35 g L?1 and potassium concentration above 40%. The third experiment was conducted in three 500 L tanks to record the survival and growth of mulloway fingerlings held at 20 (±1)°C, 23 g L?1 salinity and potassium concentrations of 50% for 8 months. Survival and growth of mulloway fingerling in inland saline groundwater were similar to those reported from a semi‐intensive floating tank system in inland saline water and sea cage trials in oceanic water.  相似文献

We evaluated the performance of whiteleg shrimp Penaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) in response to different stocking densities and acclimation periods. Shrimp postlarvae were acclimated from seawater (30 g L?1) to low‐salinity well water (<1.0 g L?1) at a constant hourly reduction rate of 40, 60, 80 and 100 h. After acclimation to low‐salinity well water, postlarvae from each acclimation time treatment were stocked in three replicate tanks at densities of 50, 100, 150 or 200 shrimps m?2 for 12 weeks of growth. Salinity averaged <1.0 g L?1 for each growth study. The different treatments resulted in significant differences in both the final body weight and the survival rate (SR). Shrimp acclimated for 100 h showed substantially improved survival (83%) relative to shrimp acclimated for shorter periods. Shrimp yields for all cultured periods ranged from 0.32 kg m?2 in tanks stocked at 50 m?2 to 1.14 kg m?2 in tanks stocked at 200 m?2. We conclude that whiteleg shrimp can be successfully grown in low‐salinity well water, and that the growth, production output and SRs are significantly higher when shrimp are acclimated for longer periods.  相似文献

A 8‐week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different dietary protein and lipid levels on growth and energy productive value of juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei, at 30 and 2 ppt, respectively. Nine practical diets were formulated to contain three protein levels (380, 410 and 440 g kg?1) and three lipid levels (60, 80 and 100 g kg?1). Each diet was randomly fed to triplicate groups of 30 shrimps per tank (260 L). The effects of salinity and an interaction between dietary protein level and lipid level on growth and energy productive value of shrimp were observed under the experimental conditions of this study. At 30 ppt seawater, shrimp fed with 440 g kg?1protein diets had significantly higher weight gain (WG) than those fed with 380 g kg?1 protein diets at the same dietary lipid level, and the 60 g kg?1 lipid group showed higher growth than 80 g kg?1and 100 g kg?1 lipid groups at the same dietary protein level. At 2 ppt seawater, the growth of shrimp was little affected by dietary protein treatments when shrimp fed the 80 and 100 g kg?1 lipid, shrimp fed the 80 g kg?1 lipid diets had only slightly higher growth than that fed 60and 100 g kg?1 lipid diets when fed 380 and 410 g kg?1 dietary protein diets. A significant effect of salinity on growth of shrimp was detected with the growth responses at 30 ppt > 2ppt (P < 0.05). Final body lipid content, body protein content and energy productive value of shrimp was significantly higher in animals exposed to 30 ppt than in shrimp held at 2 ppt.  相似文献

The Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), as an economically important species, has been reared in low‐salinity water during the last decade. To investigate how juvenile L. vannamei shrimp fed with fructose‐enriched Artemia respond to acute low‐salinity stress, the shrimp were randomly divided into four treatment groups, three groups were fed with Artemia enriched with either 100, 200 and 300 mg L?1 of fructose and a control group fed with Artemia with no enrichment for 10 days. The results showed that the 300 mg L?1 fructose group demonstrated the maximum survival rate and glycogen content. Additionally, the 300 mg L?1 fructose group showed significantly higher Na+/K+‐ATPase activity, total antioxidant capacity, and expression levels of Na+/K+‐ATPase α‐subunit, V‐H ATPase α‐subunit, hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, antioxidants (SOD, CAT, GPX) and Hsp70 mRNA when compared with the control group. Furthermore, after exposure to low salinity, the mRNA levels of phosphofructokinase, V‐H ATPase α‐subunit, GPX, p38, JNK and Rac1 stayed constant in shrimp fed with fructose‐enriched Artemia but changed significantly in the control group. Thus, a diet of fructose‐enriched Artemia can improve the osmoregulation and survival of juvenile L. vannamei shrimp exposed to low salinities.  相似文献

A nature‐simulating culture system was used to explore the influence of salinity, the diurnal cycle and daylength on ingestion rate (IR) and assimilation efficiency (AE) of Laternula marilina. The clams used in the experiments were grouped into three sizes: large, medium and small according to shell length and dry fresh weight. The clams in all size groups demonstrated a common response pattern in IR and AE under salinities ranging from 18 to 34 g L?1. The clams achieved the greatest IR within the salinity range 27–30 g L?1. There was a marked reduction in IR outside this range. Of the salinities tested 18 g L?1 was the harshest stress to the feeding of L. marilina. Between the salinities of 24 and 34 g L?1, the AE of the clam responded in an inverse way to that of IR, suggesting that L. marilina is able to compensate for the loss of IR by an increase in AE. Although the differences between clam size groups were not statistically different, those between different salinities were except those between 27 and 34 g L?1 (IR) and 23 and 34 g L?1 (AE). All sizes of clam showed a two‐phase diurnal feeding pattern, a high ingestion phase from 00:00 to 08:00 hours and a low ingestion phase from 12:00 to 20:00 hours. The response of feeding (as measured by IR) to daylength comprised high and constant feeding at daylengths from 0 to 16 h and declining and unstable feeding as daylength increased from 16 to 24 h. All sizes of clams demonstrated an inverse adaptation to AE compared with IR, indicating that the clam is able to achieve a stable feeding physiology by compensating for daylength‐induced variations in IR by changing AE.  相似文献

A 10‐week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different protein to energy ratios on growth and body composition of juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei (initial average weight of 0.09 ± 0.002 g, mean ± SE). Twelve practical test diets were formulated to contain four protein levels (300, 340, 380 and 420 g kg?1) and three lipid levels (50, 75 and 100 g kg?1). Each diet was randomly fed to triplicate groups of 30 shrimps per tank (260 L). The water temperature was 28.5 ± 2 °C and the salinity was 28 ± 1 g L?1 during the experimental period. The results showed that the growth was significantly (P < 0.05) affected by dietary treatments. Shrimps fed the diets containing 300 g kg?1 protein showed the poorest growth. However, shrimp fed the 75 g kg?1 lipid diets had only slightly higher growth than that fed 50 g kg?1 lipid diets at the same dietary protein level, and even a little decline in growth with the further increase of dietary lipid to 100 g kg?1. Shrimp fed the diet with 420 g kg?1protein and 75 g kg?1 lipid had the highest specific growth rate. However, shrimp fed the diet with 340 g kg?1 protein and 75 g kg?1 lipid showed comparable growth, and had the highest protein efficiency ratio, energy retention and feed efficiency ratio among dietary treatments. Triglycerides and total cholesterol in the serum of shrimp increased with increasing dietary lipid level at the same dietary protein level. Body lipid and energy increased with increasing dietary lipid level irrespective of dietary protein. Results of the present study showed that the diet containing 340 g kg?1 protein and 75 g kg?1 lipid with digestible protein/digestible energy of 21.1 mg kJ?1 is optimum for L. vannamei, and the increase of dietary lipid level has not efficient protein‐sparing effect.  相似文献

Survival of marble goby larvae fed either Rhodovulum sulfidophilum, a phototrophic bacterium cultured from palm oil mill effluent (pPB), or microalgae ( Nannochloropsis sp.) was evaluated at two salinities. Larvae directly fed pPB had survival of 0–29% at 5 g L?1 salinity and 0–19% at 10 g L?1 salinity, whereas larvae directly fed microalgae suffered complete mortality after 20 days of culture at both salinities. However, larvae indirectly fed pPB or microalgae, i.e. via rotifers (Days 1–30) and Artemia nauplii (Days 21–30) cultured solely from pPB or microalgae, showed improved survival of 35–55% or 44–49% at 5 g L?1 salinity respectively. In all experiments, fish larvae reared at 5 g L?1 salinity showed significantly higher (P < 0.01) mean survival than those reared at 10 g L?1 salinity. The survival of larvae fed the bacterial‐based diet was higher compared with microalgal diet used in previous studies. The pPB had higher total polyunsaturated fatty acids and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) than the microalgae, which had very high eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Larvae with very high ratios of DHA/EPA (>11) or/and ARA (arachidonic acid)/EPA (>5), attributable to their given diet, however suffered the highest mortality.  相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of low salinity on the water quality, microbial flocs composition and performance of Litopenaeus vannamei juveniles reared over 40 days in a zero‐water‐exchange super‐intensive system at 0, 2, 4 and 25 g L?1. At 0 g L?1, the mortality was total at the 26th day, and consequently, these salinity data were not included in the statistical analysis. Among the water quality parameters, only pH and the total suspended solids concentration were significantly influenced by salinity. However, a trend towards intensification of the nitrification processes was observed as the salinity increased, with the lowest ammonia and the highest nitrite and nitrate concentrations found at 25 g L?1. The concentrations of ciliates and flagellates diminished and increased, respectively, with the increase in salinity. Diatoms predominated at 25 g L?1, whereas at 2 and 4 g L?1, chlorophytes were more abundant. Microbial floc crude protein content was reduced with the increase in salinity, whereas ash content demonstrated the inverse trend. The best overall growth performance and survival were observed at 25 g L?1. However, satisfactory productivity was also found at 4 g L?1, suggesting the viability of rearing L. vannamei at low salinity under zero‐water‐exchange conditions.  相似文献

The effects of two different environmental salinities [brackish water (BW), 12‰; sea water (SW), 39‰] and initial stock densities [low (LD), 1.0 g L?1; high (HD), 2.0 g L?1] on growth, osmoregulation, stress and energy metabolism of the fry Pagrus pagrus were investigated over a period of 45 days. Pagrus pagrus (n=80, 5.51 ± 0.25 g mean initial body weight) were randomly divided in eight groups. Growth, weight gain and specific growth rate increased in BW‐acclimated fish compared with SW‐acclimated fish. No differences were observed between the two stock densities tested at either environmental salinity. Plasma osmolality was lowest in BW‐acclimated specimens, but the stock density had no effect on this parameter. Branchial Na+,K+‐ATPase activity was positively correlated with environmental salinity, but unaltered at the renal level. Plasmatic parameters were enhanced by salinity and stocking conditions. At the hepatic level, triglyceride values were enhanced in BW‐acclimated fish maintained at LD. Muscle metabolites (glycogen, glucose and lactate) increased in BW‐ compared with SW‐acclimated fish; stock density had no influence. Our data suggest that changes in metabolic parameters could be correlated with the higher growth rates observed in P. pagrus acclimated to BW, while no significant effects due to the stocking density used were observed.  相似文献

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of a hot water extract of brown seaweeds Sargassum duplicatum and Sargassum wightii on the growth and white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) resistance in shrimp Penaeus monodon postlarvae (PL). Artemia nauplii (instar II) were enriched with both seaweed extracts at various concentrations (250, 500 and 750 mg L?1) and fed to the respective P. monodon (PL15–35) group for 20 days. A control group was also maintained without seaweed extract supplementation. The weight gain of the experimental groups was significantly higher (0.274–0.323 g) than the control group (0.261 g). Similarly, the specific growth rate was also significantly higher (16.27–17.06%) in the experimental groups than in the control group (16.03%). After 20 days of the feeding experiment, the shrimp PL were challenged with WSSV for 21 days. During the challenge test, the control shrimp displayed 100% mortality within 8 days. In contrast, the mortality percentage of the highest concentration (750 mg L?1) of seaweed extract enriched Artemia nauplii fed shrimp was 54–79%. Comparatively, low mortality was observed in S. wightii extract‐enriched Artemia nauplii fed shrimp. The polymerase chain reaction analysis indicated the concentration‐dependent infection of WSSV in P. monodon PL.  相似文献
