Growth performance, muscle cellularity and flesh quality were investigated in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fed either of two diet ranges [high protein (HP), or low protein (LP)], which differed in digestible protein/digestible energy ratios but were of equivalent digestible energy content (21.4 MJ kg−1 wet weight). Smolts from an early maturing (Lochy) and a late maturing (Mowi) strain were PIT-tagged and reared together in duplicate 5×5×5-m sea cages for each diet. The Lochy and Mowi fish were harvested in May and August, respectively, after 417 and 515 days in seawater. The average body weight of fish in each cage at harvest was in the range 3.8–5.4 kg, with no significant difference between diets. The total cross-sectional area of white muscle and the number and diameter of muscle fibres was determined at the level of the first dorsal fin ray. The distribution of muscle fibre diameters was investigated using nonparametric smoothing and bootstrapping techniques. Diet had no effect on fibre size distribution or fibre number in the Mowi strain, and small but significant effects for the Lochy strain. At harvest, in Lochy salmon of average fork length 69 cm there were around 15% more fibres in fish fed the HP than LP ratio diets. However, the 50th percentile of fibre diameter was 20% greater in fish fed the LP than HP diets, such that the total muscle cross-sectional area was similar. The lipid content (14.1–15.3% wet mass), astaxanthin pigment concentration (7.0–8.5 mg kg−1 wet mass) and colour (RocheSalmoFan™ and Minolta Chromatometer readings) of the flesh were similar for both strains and diets. There was no significant difference in the average muscle fibre density between strains and diet, which varied between 60 and 140 fibres mm−2 muscle cross-sectional area. Gaping during processing of the fillet was in part related to muscle cellularity. Little or no gaping was observed in any fish with a fibre density in excess of 95 fibres mm−2 muscle. It was concluded that individual variation in fibre density is important in the development of gaping, but that muscle cellularity and flesh quality are relatively insensitive to the protein to energy ratio in the diet over the range studied.  相似文献

Production of triploid turbot is a relevant goal for the aquaculture industry due to the benefits associated with their sterility and growth. In order for a better understanding of the final quality of the species, muscle cellularity and quality parameters of the flesh were studied in seven diploid and seven triploid turbot after sexual maturation. White muscle cellularity was evaluated throughout white muscle cross‐sectional area from the epaxial left muscle section of each fish. To ascertain the flesh quality, several physico‐chemical parameters (moisture, ash, protein, total fat, fatty acids and minerals) were analysed, and textural mechanical properties (springiness, hardness, chewiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and adhesiveness) were determined objectively with a texturometer. Muscle cellularity was different between both groups, such that muscle fibre density was higher for diploid specimens (< 0.001) and muscle fibres diameters were higher for triploids (< 0.001). Both ploidy groups showed no significant differences in moisture, ash, protein and total fat content (> 0.05). All textural properties analysed showed no significant differences between both ploidy groups (> 0.05). In both ploidy groups, fibre density and fibre diameter showed no significant correlations (> 0.05) with textural parameters such as springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness and adhesiveness. Ploidy did not affect fatty acid composition, with the exception of eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5ω3) which was higher in the triploid group. No significant differences (> 0.05) existed between diploid and triploid turbot in content of all minerals analysed. According to our results, the ploidy status determines significant variations on muscle cellularity but does not influence the flesh quality of the turbot.  相似文献

We conducted a rearing experiment on Pacific bluefin tuna (PBT) larvae, which originated from one female broodstock, and determined the growth history of the larvae to clarify when the growth difference occurs. We investigated the otolith microstructure of the PBT larvae to examine the individual growth history and to predict the age and body size at the onset of individual growth difference. Since total length (TL) of fish can be back-calculated from otolith radius, we back-calculated TLs of 100 fish of 19 days post hatch (dph) divided into three size groups (small, intermediate, large). Growth difference was recognized from 3 dph (mouth opening), and the difference became larger thereafter. Growth of large-size fish was assumed to be promoted by the feeding conditions of PBT larvae.  相似文献

This study was carried out to examine differences in microstructure and texture of fresh and smoked farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. fillets with different biological characteristics. The left fillet was analysed fresh and compared with the salted and smoked right fillet from each individual fish. Light microscopy and image analysing techniques were used to study both transversal and longitudinal sections of the muscle. The fish muscle fibres shrank during the salting and smoking process, but sarcomere length did not change. After smoking, a considerable number of fat globules were dispersed among the muscle fibres. The biological characteristics studied were based upon diploid and triploid fish held in both sea cages and land‐based tanks. Different starvation times were used and one group was stressed during slaughter. The cross‐sectional area of muscle fibres from triploid fish was found to be larger than from diploid fish, both in fresh and smoked fillets.  相似文献

The effects of feeding on the development and growth of pike perch muscle and on proliferation of their progenitor myogenic cells were evaluated. Larvae were fed starting on Day 5 after hatching with Artemia nauplii, two commercial diets (Aglo Norse [AN] and Biokyowa [BK]), and two formulated diets (C [nonhydrolyzed casein] and CH [25% casein hydrolysate]). The survival, body mass, and length of pike perch juveniles fed Artemia nauplii and AN and BK diets were significantly higher compared to the C and CH groups. The highest somatic growth rate was associated with an increased contribution of hyperplasia to white muscle growth. Significantly higher frequency of proliferating cell nuclear antigen‐ and Ki‐67‐positive nuclei in the white muscle of fish fed Artemia nauplii and commercial diets compared to those fed C and CH feeds indicates that feeding affected the number of fibers. The pike perch fed the CH diet exhibited significantly lower total cross‐section area and average fiber area, additionally to the pathological changes in muscle morphology. The larvae fed natural food and diets promoting a fast growth rate exhibited a higher contribution of hyperplasia to muscle growth, which in turn, promoted an increase in the body size of adult fish.  相似文献

This study has investigated the muscle growth of diploid and triploid Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) juveniles raised in replicate tanks over a period of 29 weeks and analysed at three sampling points (February, June and September). Data for weight, length, condition factor (K), muscle fibre growth and myogenic progenitor cells (MPCs) number were collected and results were analysed in relation to body growth and ploidy status. Diploids were significantly heavier than triploids throughout the trial (~10–20%) and had K in June and September samplings. Over the whole period, the rate of muscle fibres' recruitment was 318 fibres per day and 252 fibres per day for diploid and triploid cod respectively. The larger body weight of diploids resulted in a total number of fast fibre number of 114 979 compared to 91 086 in triploids. The average diameter of the 2.5% of the smallest fibres (2.5th percentile) was higher in diploids than triploids at the start of the trial, with a reversed picture for the average of the upper 2.5% (97.5th percentile) at the end of the trial. The probability density function of the estimated muscle fibre diameters showed similar fibre size distribution between size‐matched diploids and triploids at all sample points. The peak fibre diameter was approximately 25 μm in February and increased to approximately 50 μm in June and September, irrespectively of ploidy. Pax 7 were used as molecular markers for MPCs. A positive correlation between Pax 7+ cells and total body length was observed only among triploid fish at the onset of the experiment.  相似文献

Histidine plays an important role in haemoglobin synthesis, antioxidant defence system and stress resistance, and it is thought to be a limiting amino acid in most meagre diets. In this study, two different diets, a control and a diet supplemented with 3% histidine, were tested in 60‐day‐old meagre (initial weight—6.2 g) for 82 days. Survival varied between 92% and 94%, and neither SGR nor whole fish composition seemed to be affected by the diet. When fish were submitted to a stress test (outside water for 30 s), it was observed that the levels of glucose and lactate significantly increased in both treatments. The concentration of cortisol increased after the stress test only in the His 30 g/kg group. Muscle cellularity was affected by the diets, where the control group showed a higher mean fibre area and lower fibre density. These results, associated with a lower frequency of smaller fibres, suggest a decrease in fibre recruitment and a higher fibre hypertrophy. In conclusion, the supplementation of diets with 3% led to a more pronounced response to the stress test in terms of cortisol levels and increased muscle fibre recruitment, decreasing muscle fibre hypertrophy contribution to muscle growth.  相似文献

Shi drum specimens were maintained under four different photoperiod regimes: a natural photoperiod regime (16L:8D), constant light (24L), equal durations of light and dark (12L:12D) and a reduced number of daylight hours (6L:18D) from hatching until the end of larval metamorphosis. Specimens were then kept under natural photoperiod conditions until 111 days post-hatching. Muscle and body parameters were studied. During the vitelline phase, there was little muscle growth and no photoperiod effects were reported; however, a monolayer of red muscle and immature white muscle fibres were observed in the myotome. At hatching, external cells (presumptive myogenic cells) were already present on the surface of the red muscle. At the mouth opening, some presumptive myogenic cells appeared between the red and white muscles. At 20 days, new germinal areas were observed in the apical extremes of the myotome. At this stage, the 16L:8D group (followed by the 24L group) had the longest body length, the largest cross-sectional area of white muscle and the largest white muscle fibres. Conversely, white muscle hyperplasia was most pronounced in the 24L group. Metamorphosis was complete at 33 days in the 24L and 12L:12D groups. At this moment, both groups showed numerous myogenic precursors on the surface of the myotome as well as among the adult muscle fibres (mosaic hyperplastic growth). The 16L:8D group completed metamorphosis at 50 days, showing a similar degree of structural maturity in the myotome to that described in the 24L and 12L:12D groups at 33 days. When comparing muscle growth at the end of the larval period, hypertrophy was highest in the 16L:8D group, whereas hyperplasia was higher in the 24L and 16L:8D groups. At 111 days, all groups showed the adult muscle pattern typical of teleosts; however, the cross-sectional area of white muscle, white muscle fibre hyperplasia, body length and body weight were highest in the 24L group, followed by the 12L:12D group; white muscle hypertrophy was similar in all groups. Larval survival was higher under natural photoperiod conditions compared to all the other light regimes.  相似文献

Undulatory swimming is employed by many fish for routine swimming and extended sprints. In this biomechanical review, we address two questions: (i) how the fish's axial muscles power swimming; and (ii) how the fish's body and fins generate thrust. Fish have adapted the morphology of their axial musculature for high power output and efficiency. All but the superficial muscle fibres are arranged along curved trajectories, and the myomeres form nested cones. Two conflicting performance goals shape the fibre trajectories of the axial muscles. Maximum power output requires that all fibres contract uniformly. In a bending fish, uniform contraction in a single myomere can be ensured by curved fibre trajectories. However, uniform strain is only desirable if all muscle fibres have the same contractile properties. The fish needs several muscle‐fibre types that generate maximum power at different contraction speeds to ensure effective muscle power generation across a range of swimming speeds. Consequently, these different muscle‐fibre types are better served by non‐uniform contractions. High power output at a range of swimming speeds requires that muscle fibres with the same contractile properties contract uniformly. The ensuing helical fibre trajectories require cone‐shaped myomeres to reduce wasteful internal deformation of the entire muscle when it contracts. It can be shown that the cone‐shaped myomeres of fish can be explained by two design criteria: uniform contraction (uniform strain hypothesis) and minimal internal deformation (mechanical stability hypothesis). So far, only the latter hypothesis has found strong support. The contracting muscle causes the fish body to undulate. These body undulations interact with the surrounding water to generate thrust. The resulting flow behind the swimming fish forms vortex rings, whose arrangement reflects the fish's swimming performance. Anguilliform swimmers shed individual vortex rings during steady swimming. Carangiform swimmers shed a connected chain of vortex rings. The currently available sections through the total flow fields are often not an honest representation of the total momentum in the water – the wake of carangiform swimmers shows a net backward momentum without the fish accelerating – suggesting that our current picture of the generated flow is incomplete. To accelerate, undulatory swimmers decrease the angle of the vortex rings with the mean path of motion, which is consistent with an increased rate of backward momentum transfer. Carangiform swimmers also enlarge their vortex rings to accelerate and to swim at a higher speed, while eel, which are anguilliform swimmers, shed stronger vortex rings.  相似文献

In this study, two different dietary protein levels were tested (500 and 600 g/kg) in meagre juveniles of approximately 2 g, to determine whether a higher body protein diet would favour muscle growth. Results showed that meagre survival and growth were not affected by different levels of dietary protein. However, a higher content of protein was observed in the body composition of meagre fed the P60 diet (656 g/kg versus 624 g/kg). When fish were 82 days after hatched (DAH), protein retention efficiency was significantly higher in fish that were fed the P50 diet (37.1% versus 32.5%). Muscle cellularity changed considerably from the beginning to the end of the trial. The contribution of fibre hyperplasia to muscle growth was reduced although still accounted for 30% in 96 DAH meagre. Several differences were found in the frequency of fibres with areas between 1,000 μm2 and 2,200 μm2 between younger and older meagre, but no effect was found associated with dietary protein. This study suggests that neither growth nor muscle cellularity of fast‐growing juvenile meagre is positively affected by an increased dietary protein levels.  相似文献

The drinking rate of cod larvae 1–7 days post hatching was measured from the uptake of3H-labelled dextran (MW = 70000) admixed in the incubation seawater (34 ppt 5°C). The drinking rate increased gradually from 0.15% to 0.59% of the larval body weight on day 1 and day 7 respectively. This increase in drinking rate correlated with an observed decrease in the volume of the yolk sac and its water store. Autoradiographs showed the labelled dextran to be confined to the intestine. Electron micrographs showed an open mouth communicating with the oesophagus and the intestine in cod larvae at the time of hatching. Chloride cells were present on the opercular folds but not on the vestigial, developing gills. The data indicate that the water acquisition mechanism of larval cod is similar to that of adult marine fish.  相似文献

Formulation of diets according to fish amino acid (AA) qualitative requirements may improve fish growth. Two diets with different AA profiles were tested on 16‐day‐old meagre during 20 days. The first diet had an AA profile closer to meagre larval AA requirements (BAL), whereas the second had a different AA profile (UNBAL). Results showed that larvae fed the diet with higher similarities to the AA profile of meagre carcass had a higher final weight (19.8 ± 0.5 mg versus 13.4 ± 1.8 mg) and lower ammonia excretion after being fed (0.6 ± 0.1 ml/(g DW. larvae. h) and 0.8 ± 0.1 ml/(g DW larvae. h)). A higher mean fibre area was obtained in 36 DAH larvae fed the BAL diet (224.8 ± 33.3 μm2 versus 158.8 ± 34.5 μm2) as well as higher larval weight. When fibre area distribution was analysed, a higher frequency of larger fibres was observed in 36 DAH BAL larvae, suggesting that fibre hypertrophy had a higher importance in this treatment. In conclusion, this study shows that meagre larvae fed a diet with an AA profile closer to their requirements had lower nitrogen losses and higher final weight, as result of higher muscle hypertrophy.  相似文献

Several investigations have been carried out to improve the productivity of tambaqui, an economically important fish species in Brazil and other Latin American countries. This study determined the digestible protein (DP) requirements in juvenile tambaqui by assessing their productive performance and nutritional efficiency. It also evaluated the effects of different dietary DP levels on the morphology and cellularity of skeletal fast muscle fibres. The 1750 tambaqui tested (6.53 ± 0.43 g body weight, 7.58 ± 0.18 cm length) were randomly distributed into 35 tanks. Fish were fed one of the seven isocaloric diets, which contained 140, 170, 200, 230, 260, 290 or 320 g/kg DP. The DP requirement, calculated by segmented (broken line) regression of weight gain data, was 290 g/kg. An increase in diet DP to 290 g/kg significantly improved final weight, weight gain, feed intake, specific growth rate and crude protein gain, and changed fibre diameter in deep muscle. Muscle fibres were randomly distributed into a mosaic pattern, characterized by fibres with different diameters. Treatments with 290 and 320 g/kg DP increased the frequency of large‐diameter fibres (>50 µm), indicating hypertrophic growth of skeletal muscle during the juvenile phase, which occurred in conjunction with hyperplasia.  相似文献

This work aimed to evaluate the relationship between morphological development, oxygen consumption and reduced mortality in larval fish. We measured the resting metabolic rate (RM), specific metabolic rate (SMR) and the change in the total length during the larval stage of four fish species. Resting metabolism decreased from hatching to mouth opening, and then increased after mouth opening. The changes in the SMR were variable during the larval stage. After hatching, there was no increase in SMR in yolk‐sac larvae. However, SMR increased between mouth opening and the onset of notochord flexion and then decreased during notochord flexion before finally stabilizing. We observed two peaks in mortality during the larval period of all species: between mouth opening to the onset of notochord flexion and from the completion of notochord flexion to the juvenile stage based on the per cent mortality and the number of dead fish collected from the bottom of the rearing tank. Interestingly, the changes in SMR coincided with these periods of mortality. We hypothesize that larvae require more energy during these periods of larval development and are thus more susceptible to mortality when energy is insufficient. Thus, it is important to supply enough nutrition to larvae in during early development to prevent mass larval mortality.  相似文献

Recently, it has been found that the thermal experience during the earliest phases of development could determine the larval and postlarval growth characteristics of teleosts. In order to investigate the effects of the early temperature regime on the advanced stages of growth of sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L., this species was reared during the vitelline phase at two temperatures: natural temperature (15 °C) and 17.7±0.1 °C, and then larvae transferred to common temperature (natural temperature). Muscle growth was studied by morphometric and histochemical techniques (mATPase and NADH-TR). Body length and body mass were also measured. During the vitelline phase, muscle growth was similar in both experimental groups, but at 25 days, both hypertrophy and hyperplasia of white muscle fibres were greater in the prewarmed group (p<0.05). At the end of metamorphosis (80 days) and at 120 days, the average diameter of white muscle fibres, as well as the body length, were greater in the prewarmed group (p<0.05), but the number of white fibres did not differ significantly between groups. The morphological mosaic of white muscle fibres was observed at the end of metamorphosis, and the histochemical mosaic appeared gradually since the early postlarval stages. Thus, at 120 days, some specimens in both experimental groups showed three or four different mATPase staining white fibres: low (L), moderate (M), high (H) and/or very high (vH), whereas in other specimens, only L or M mATPase activity fibres were observed. Early T influenced the histochemical maturity of the white muscle. By 120 days, the proportion of H and vH fibres was greater in the prewarmed group (p=0.027; p=0.051, respectively). By 154 days, the four mATPase staining profiles (L, M, H, vH) were observed in all specimens of both groups, but the proportion of vH fibres was still higher in the prewarmed group. By 188 days, 3774 °C-day for the prewarmed group and 3759 °C-day for the natural temperature group, only slight differences between groups were observed in the histochemical properties and no differences were found in the number and size of white muscle fibres, neither in the body length and body mass of specimens.

In conclusion, a slight increase of temperature during the vitelline phase of sea bass increased the muscle growth and body length of fish in subsequent larval and postlarval stages, and advanced the histochemical maturity of the white muscle.  相似文献

Morphological development and allometric growth patterns of Seriola lalandi larvae were assessed to characterize normal growth patterns under culture conditions. Early ontogenetic stages of yellowtail kingfish exhibited an exponential growth in terms of standard length as a function of age. Five development stages were characterized from hatching to the juvenile stage: larval stage I (0–2 days post hatch, dph) with endogenous feeding, characterized by a small yolk sac, unpigmented eyes, primordial finfold surrounding the body and a closed mouth; larval stage II (2–15 dph) characterized by mouth opening, complete pigmentation of eyes and the beginning of the exogenous feeding; subsequently, in the larval stage III (15–25 dph) the posterior tip of notochord of the larvae bended upward and the first rays appeared in fins, concomitant with a change in swimming behaviour; thereafter, larval stage IV (post‐flexion stage; 25–30 dph) began when larvae resembled in morphology to a juvenile organism; however, caudal and dorsal fins were not completely development. Lastly, the juvenile stage was reached 30 dph characterized by a morphology and fin structures similar to those of the adults. Growth and development of structures and organs associated with vital functions such as feeding, sensorial and breathing systems seemed to be more critical previous to 23 dph, which was reflected with a positive allometric growth of head and eyes during this period. The results from this study can be used as a tool‐guide to assess normal development in larval research with S. lalandi to improve existing rearing protocols in hatchery production.  相似文献

The ontogeny of the tetra fish Astyanax lacustris, from embryogenesis through the larval and juvenile periods, is presented. The eggs and larvae were obtained through induced reproduction. The larvae were collected at hatching and daily, until all stages of development were obtained and, later, once a week, until the juvenile period. The eggs are small, slightly adhesive and demersal, and have a transparent chorion, yellowish calf and meroblastic cleavage. The larvae hatch 19 hr after fertilization (26ºC). The standard length during initial development ranges from 2.17 to 18.10 mm. The larvae have a subterminal mouth, simple nostrils, a pair of adhesive organs on the back of the head (newborn larvae), spherical eyes and medium‐length intestines. The initial pigmentation is scarce, concentrated in the anteroposterior ends of the yolk sac, but intensifies from the flexion stage, with chromatophores in the mouth and in the cephalic region; the humeral region and the caudal peduncle have a macula at the end of the larval development. The total number of myomeres: 32–38, 15–20 preanal and 14–20 postanal. Juveniles showed similar morphology and pigmentation to adults. The number of fin rays: pectoral 11–12; pelvic 6–7; dorsal 10–11; and anal 27–29.  相似文献

Commercially farmed Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) were reared at the Aga Marin's facility located on Dønna (Norway) under ambient environmental conditions in duplicate 15 × 15 × 8 m netpens (May 2004 to May 2005). Twenty fish were sampled five times over a twelve month production period during which time the average body weight increased from 1.26 to 2.08 kg (n = 100 fish). Body mass, fork length (LF), and the number and size distributions of fast muscle fibres were determined in male and female fish. All males matured during the autumn whereas no maturation was observed in females. From the point of maturation females had superior growth performance to males and body mass and the total cross-sectional area of muscle were 1.4-fold (P < 0.05) and 1.3-fold higher (P < 0.01) respectively by May 2005. The total number of fast muscle fibres per trunk cross-section at 0.55 LF was 24.5% higher in females (7.58 × 105) than males (5.80 × 105) prior to sexual maturation. In females, muscle fibre recruitment slowed with short days and low water temperatures (< 6.5 °C), but had increased to 1.01 × 106 by May 2005 (P < 0.001). In contrast, there was no growth and no increase in muscle fibre number in males following the onset of maturation. The distribution of muscle fibre diameters prior to maturation in males was also significantly different between male and female fish matched for LF. The results illustrate a sexual dimorphism of muscle fibre recruitment patterns in Atlantic halibut and highlight the adverse affects of sexual maturation in males on muscle growth.  相似文献
