Grouper have to face varied environmental stressors as a result of drastic changes to water conditions during the storm season. We aimed to test the response of brown-marbled grouper to drastic and gradual changes in temperature and salinity to understand the grouper’s basic stress response. The results can improve the culture of grouper. Brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus (6.2 ± 0.8 g) were examined for temperature and salinity tolerances at nine different environmental regimes (10, 20, and 33 ‰ combined with 20, 26 and 32 °C), in which the fish were subjected to both gradual and sudden changes in temperature and salinity. The critical thermal maximum (50 % CTMAX) and the upper incipient lethal temperature (UILT) were in the ranges of 35.9–38.3 and 32.7–36.5 °C, respectively. The critical thermal minimum (50 % CTMIN) and the lower incipient lethal temperature (LILT) were in the ranges of 9.8–12.2 and 14.9–22.3 °C, respectively. The critical salinity maximum (50 % CSMAX) and the upper incipient lethal salinity (UILS) were in the ranges of 67.0–75.5 and 54.2–64.8 ‰, respectively. Fish at temperature of 20 °C and a salinity of 33 ‰ tolerated temperatures as low as 10 °C when the temperature was gradually decreased. Fish acclimated at salinities of 10–33 ‰ and a temperature of 32 °C tolerated salinities of as high as 75–79 ‰. All fish survived from accumulating salinity after acute transfer to 20, 10, 5, and 3 ‰. But all fish died while transferred to 0 ‰. Relationships among the UILT, LILT, 50 % CTMAX, 50 % CTMIN, UILS, 50 % CSMAX, salinity, and temperature were examined. The grouper’s temperature and salinity tolerance elevated by increasing acclimation temperature and salinity. On the contrary, the grouper’s temperature and salinity tolerance degraded by decreasing acclimation temperature and salinity. The tolerance of temperature and salinity on grouper in gradual changes were higher than in drastic changes.  相似文献

Critical thermal minima (CTmin) and lower incipient lethal temperature (LILT) were determined for Penaeus semisulcatus juveniles at combinations of four acclimation temperatures (18, 22, 26 and 30 °C) and four salinity levels (20, 25, 30 and 35 ppt). While the CTmin and LILT of shrimps were not affected significantly by salinity ( P >0.05), a direct relationship was determined between the thermal minima values (CTmin, LILT) and the acclimation temperature ( P <0.05). The acclimation response ratio for the juveniles of P. semisulcatus had an interval of 0.18–0.32 in the current study.  相似文献

Associations between catches and depth, temperature and salinity data obtained from the 1994–97 preseason shrimp trawl surveys in Kuwait waters were analysed using cumulative distribution functions and overlap coefficients. No single environmental factor had a controlling influence on shrimp distribution. Shrimp associations with the joint distributions of two environmental variables were stronger and more consistent over time than those with any single environmental factor. All three shrimp species examined in this study were significantly associated with the joint distributions of depth and temperature, and depth and salinity, indicating depth as the most influential factor in structuring the shrimp distributions during the surveys. Metapenaeus affinis and Parapenaeopsis stylifera were distributed at similar ranges of depth (8–15 m), temperature (26–31°C) and salinity (35–41‰), and had very high overlap coefficients. These two species can be categorized as co-occurring species in the sampled area. Penaeus semisulcatus had the widest range of the three environmental variables investigated in this study, particularly depth (8–32 m) and temperature (24–32°C).  相似文献

The effects of temperature and salinity on the settlement, subsequent survival and development of the copepodids of Lepeophtheirus salmonis on Atlantic salmon were investigated experimentally. There was a significantly greater settlement and survival of copepodids at 10 days post-infection (dpi) at 12 °C compared with at 7 °C at a constant salinity of 34‰. Development of L. salmonis was also more rapid at 12 °C. Settlement was significantly greater at a salinity of 34‰ than at 24‰. In one experiment, survival at 10 dpi was significantly greater at 34‰; however, a second experiment found that there was no significant difference between the two saline levels. This may have been because of a rise in water temperature for 2 dpi, which appears to have overridden the effect of low salinity. Development of L. salmonis was more rapid at 34‰. Copepodids settled on all of the external surfaces of the salmon, although the proportion on different surfaces varied between experiments. The gills, particularly at low temperatures, the body surface, and the pectoral and dorsal fins were especially favoured.  相似文献

Critical thermal maxima (CTMax) and minima (CTMin) were determined for Prochilodus scrofa Steindachner of two sizes (19.5 ±7.2 g and 249 ± 42.4 g). acclimated at 15. 20, 25, 30 and 35 ± 1°C. The CTMax and the CTMin for the smaller fish were 33.9. 36.7. 38.7, 40.3. 42.0°C and 5.0, 7.2. 9.2. 10.3. 13.4oC and for the larger (Ish 33.3, 35.7, 38.2. 40.6. 42.6°C and 6.5, 8.2. 10.8. 12.4, 14.6°C. respectively, at each acclimation temperature. The CTMin from smaller fish were significantly lower than those from larger ones but the CTMax did not show any such difference. These results indicate that P. scrofa is suitable for culture in south-eastern and even in southern Brazil where winter temperatures may drop to very low levels, mainly at night. The zone of thermal tolerance calculated by CTMax and CTMin was equivalent to 1046°C2 and 964.2°C2, respectively, for smaller and larger fish, showing a high degree of eurythermicity.  相似文献

Abstract  The short-term tolerances of northern pike, Esox lucius L., fry reared in a freshwater hatchery, to salinity were examined in the laboratory. Survival of two size groups of pike fry (mean length 21 ± 2 mm SD and 37 ± 4 mm SD) was examined over 72- to 96-h periods at 9–14 ppt salinity in combination with temperatures of 10, 14 and 18 °C. A parametric survival model found a significant correlation between survival of pike fry and temperature and salinity, respectively. L C50 values after 72 h were between 11.2 and 12.2 ppt, being lowest at 10 °C. Pike fry did not survive more than 13 ppt. Mortality at 12 ppt was significantly faster at 18 °C than 10 or 14 °C. Moreover, mortality was higher and faster for large than for small pike fry at 12 ppt and 14 °C. These results imply that pike raised in fresh water can survive stocking into brackish waters below 11 ppt at least for a short time.  相似文献

During summer in Brittany, France, sea farmed brown trout, Salmo trutta L., regularly experience a high mortality rate which is associated, at least in part, with cardiac disorders (aneurysms and infarcts). The present study is preliminary to a more extensive research programme, the objective of which is to determine to what extent the physiological performance of the cardiovascular system of brown trout is affected by the environmental conditions the fish experience in farm cages. We conducted a 2-week in situ experiment during which the heart rate of eight sea water acclimatized individuals was telemetered using acoustic tags. During the experimental period, water temperature ranged from 16.0 to 17.6 °C. Water oxygen saturation was above 80% at all times and salinity was very high (35.5‰) but stable. Although they were unfed and not active, seven of out the eight tagged animals displayed near maximum heart beat frequencies, which ranged between 83 and 98 beats per minute (bpm). On the other hand, the eighth animal exhibited medium-range heart rates (50–70 bpm). Using phase delay maps, we established that the maximum heart rate of brown trout at 17 °C was in the range of 96–100 bpm. This result suggests that in our experimental conditions, the heart rate of most of our inactive fish was between 85 and 100% of maximum myocardial performance. We hypothesize that the cardiac failures observed in brown trout during summer are most likely a result of strenuous workloads imposed on the cardiovascular system by a combination of elevated temperature, high salinity and possibly season-related decreased hypo-osmoregulatory abilities.  相似文献

Abstract  One prerequisite for a successful stocking programme is the choice of an appropriate release site, which would ensure good growth, survival and recruitment to the local fishery. The influence of different salinity regimes on habitat quality for juvenile flounder, Platichthys flesus (L.), was examined in Danish inshore waters using enclosures to study growth and survival. Three locations were chosen: Virksund (V) – constant low salinity at 10‰; Harre Vig (HV) – constant high salinity at 24‰; and Hjerk Nor – variable salinity, 0–25‰. Fish movement was examined, using a diffusion model, at the first two sites. At HV the fish had unrestricted dispersal opportunity resulting in average individual movement of 45 m day−1. Fish at V were restricted in dispersal in one direction because of a dam, about which they would concentrate under certain hydrographical conditions. Growth was highest at the locations with stable salinity and mortality highest at the location with variable salinity.  相似文献

Sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus juveniles acclimated to different environmental conditions (23, 25, and 27°C combined with 25, 30, and 35 psu) were assessed for tolerance to increasing and decreasing levels of salinity at a rate of 2 psu h−1. They were also tested for the LS50 (median lethal salinity) when transferred directly into a series of higher salinity (32–46 psu) and lower salinity (9–25 psu). The CSMax (critical salinity maximum), CSMin (critical salinity minimum), USTL (upper salinity tolerance limit), and LSTL (lower salinity tolerance limit) were positively correlated to the acclimated salinity level but negatively correlated to temperature. The CSMax of A. japonicus was 6.2–10.0 psu higher than the USTL, and the CSMin was 5.5–8.5 psu lower than the LSTL, indicating that gradual changes in salinity resulted in the wide range of salinity tolerance that was observed, but that abrupt changes in salinity resulted in the narrow range of tolerance. Two-way analysis of variance revealed that salinity and temperature had a significant effect on 50% CSMax, 50% CSMin, USTL, and LSTL (P < 0.001). The information obtained in this study will be valuable for the further development of the sea cucumber aquaculture industry in China.  相似文献

Critical thermal minima (CTmin) and lower incipient lethal temperature (LILT) were determined for Penaeus semisulcatus juveniles at four different acclimation temperatures (14, 20, 26, and 32  C). The effect of cooling rate on the CTmin was also investigated. The CTmin of shrimps at these respective acclimation temperatures were 7.1, 8.9, 10.5, 12.6  C and 6.6, 8.0, 9.7, 11.4  C and 6.1, 7.2, 8.3, 9.9  C for the cooling rates of 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0  C/h, respectively. The LILT value of P. semisulcatus were 5.23, 6.14, 7.36, 8.57  C at 14, 20, 26, and 32  C, respectively. The results indicated that both the cooling rate and the acclimation temperature significantly affected the CTmin ( P  < 0.05). Acclimation temperature had also significant effects on the LILT of P.   semisulcatus ( P  < 0.05). In acclimation temperatures between 14 and 32  C, the acclimation response ratio values were 0.30, 0.26, and 0.21 at the cooling rates of 0.25, 0.5, and 1  C/h, respectively. The cold tolerance zone in which P.   semisulcatus can survive for short period in this study ranged from 6.1 to 12.6  C.  相似文献

The upper incipient lethal temperatures of the freshwater mullet, Rhinomugil corsula, acclimated to 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35°C in fresh water, were 32.4, 34.1, 36.0, 36.2 and 36.5°C respectively, and the corresponding lower lethal temperatures were 10.5, 11.5, 13.2, 15.8 and 19.5°C. The mullet has a total tolerance (area of thermal polygon) of 569°C with an upper and lower thermal tolerance of 253 and 316°C2. Likewise, the total resistance of the mullet was 391°C2, with upper and lower resistance zones of 181 and 210°C respectively. The upper critical temperatures of swimming inhibition of R. corsula (17.2 cm; acclimation 30°C), determined in a swimming tunnel, were 35.2, 34.6 and 34.2 for water current velocities of 38, 62 and 77 cm s?1 respectively. The corresponding lower critical temperatures were 26.2, 27.5 and 28.1°C. These results indicated the stenothermal nature of the mullet by comparison with other fishes, e.g. Tilapia mossambica.In tests on the influence of ambient salinity on thermal resistance, R. corsula survived longest at 7‰ (iso-osmotic salinity). At salinities above and below this point, survival times were shorter at any lethal temperature. In a tentative scheme for quantification of stress due to temperature and salinity at death (after acclimation to 30°C and tested at 37°C), the hypo-osmotic and hyper-osmotic stress were estimated to be 50 and 31% of the thermal stress (100%) respectively.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   The effects of temperature changes on the endogenous rhythm of oxygen consumption in the Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus which were acclimated to 3, 14 or 20°C in advance were investigated. The oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of individuals (total length >28 cm) that were acclimated to 3°C, maintained a relatively low value of 6.9 ± 2.3 mL (mean ± SD) O2/kg ww (wet weight)/h till 5.8°C, which is considered a 'minimum' rate. Thereafter, the OCR gradually increased up to 18.7 mL O2/kg ww/h at the temperature of 10.6°C. The OCR of individuals acclimated to 14°C stabilized with 124.2 ± 24.1 mL O2/kg ww/h, when tested at the relatively constant temperature of 14.4 ± 0.17°C. Maximum entropy spectral analysis revealed that the peak OCR occurred at 23.9 h intervals, which could be a circadian rhythm. The mean OCR showed a peak at 06.00–08.00 hours. For the temperature above 25°C in which the fish were acclimated to 20°C, the rhythmic patterns of OCR were observed until the experimental temperature reached 26.4°C. For the temperature above 28.4°C, the metabolic activity rhythm of the OCR was dampened and then the OCR abruptly rose again. It is assumed that the oscillator of the endogenous rhythm lost the governing of normal metabolic activity in Japanese flounders above 28.4°C. These results suggest that the temperatures of around 5.8, 26.4 and 28.4°C are the 'lower limit temperature', 'upper incipient lethal temperature', and the 'critical thermal maximum', respectively, for the endogenous rhythm of oxygen consumption in the Japanese flounder.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:     The acute toxicities of boron were examined for Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus and red sea bream Pagrus major in terms of fish size and water temperature. Japanese flounder of 0.1–70.0 g and red sea bream of 0.6–20.3 g were exposed to different concentrations of boron for 96 h at 20°C under semi-static conditions. In both fish species, the median lethal concentration (LC50) for 96 h of boron increased linearly with increasing fish size, ranging from 108 to 252 mg B/L for the flounder, and from 97 to 172 mg B/L for the sea bream. The effect of water temperature on acute toxicity was examined for Japanese flounder of 0.6 and 1.5 g at 10, 15, 20 and 25°C, and for red sea bream of 0.6 and 2.4 g at 12, 15, 20 and 25°C. The toxicity of boron for the flounder increased linearly with increasing water temperature. The 96 h LC50 values ranged from 299 to 108 mg B/L for the 0.6 g flounder and from 350 to 113 mg B/L for the 1.5 g flounder. A similar trend was shown for the 2.4 g red sea bream; however, the relationship for the 0.6 g red sea bream was not significant.  相似文献

Abstract –  Pacific lamprey, Entosphenus tridentatus , return to streams and use somatic energy to fuel maturation. Body size decreases, the lamprey mature, spawn, and then die. We predicted that warm, summer temperatures (>20 °C) would accentuate shrinkage in body size, and expedite sexual maturation and subsequent death. We compared fish reared in the laboratory at diel fluctuating temperatures of 20–24 °C (mean = 21.8 °C) with fish reared at cooler temperatures (13.6 °C). The results confirmed our predictions. Lamprey from the warm water group showed significantly greater proportional decreases in body weight following the summer temperature treatments than fish from the cool water group. A greater proportion of warm water fish sexually matured (100%) and died (97%) the following spring than cool water fish (53% sexually mature, 61% died). Females tended to mature and die earlier than males, most obviously in the warm water group.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   Myosins were prepared from fast skeletal muscles of grass carp thermally acclimated to 10, 20 and 30°C in the laboratory as well as from those seasonally acclimatized and collected in January (winter) 2003 and May (spring), August (summer) and November (autumn) 2002. The maximal initial velocities ( V max) of actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity for myosins from the 10°C-acclimated and winter grass carp were 1.7–1.8-fold as high as those from the 30°C-acclimated and summer fish. The inactivation rate constant ( K D) of Ca2+-ATPase for myosin from the 10°C-acclimated grass carp was three to fourfold higher than those for myosins from the fish acclimated to 20°C and 30°C, whereas myosin from winter grass carp was about sevenfold as high as that for myosin from summer fish. Myosins from spring and autumn fish showed K D values comparable to those of the fish acclimated to 30°C and 10°C, respectively. In differential scanning calorimetry analysis, the transition temperature ( T m) was observed near 38°C and 45–46°C with most myosins. However, the lowest T m at 32–33°C was given as one of the major endotherms in myosins from the 10°C-acclimated, autumn and winter fish. These responses of grass carp to changed environmental temperatures were almost similar to those for common carp reported previously.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   Experiments were conducted to determine the acute tolerance of juvenile (mean weight ± standard error, 9.9 ± 0.9 g) black sea bass Centropristis striata to environmental un-ionized ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N) and nitrite-nitrogen (NO2-N) exposure at various salinities. Specifically, median lethal concentrations (LC50 values) of NH3-N and NO2-N at 24, 48 and 96 h of exposure were determined at salinities of 10, 20 and 30 g/L at 22°C. With the exception of LC50 values determined at 48 h, median lethal concentrations of NH3-N to black sea bass were not influenced by environmental salinity; 24, 48, and 96 h LC50 values ranged from 0.81 to 0.85, 0.65–0.77, and 0.46–0.54 mg-NH3-N/L, respectively. In contrast, tolerance of black sea bass to environmental NO2-N was compromised at reduced salinities. Median lethal concentrations of NO2-N to fish at 24, 48 and 96 h of exposure ranged from 288.3 to 429.0, 258.4 to 358.8 and 190.0 to 241.9 mg-NO2-N/L, respectively. Results indicate that while juvenile black sea bass are relatively sensitive to acute NH3-N exposure, they are highly resistant to NO2-N exposure.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   The development of embryos, larvae and juveniles of the Ryukyu-ayu, Plecoglossus altivelisryukyuensis are described based on laboratory-reared specimens.The eggs were spherical, 0.98–1.18 mm (mean 1.06 mm)in diameter with an adherent membrane. The incubation period after fertilizationwas approximately 155 h at a water temperature of 19.7–22.0°C(mean 20.7°C). Newly hatched larvae were 5.0–5.9 mm(mean 5.5 mm) in body length (BL) with 59–62 myotomes.Within 5 days after hatching, the larvae had attained 6.4–8.2 mm(mean 7.8 mm) BL and had completely consumed their yolk.Notochord flexion began at 13.7 mm BL and was completedby 16.3 mm BL. The rudimental dorsal, anal, pelvic andadipose fins appeared at 14.7, 16.3, 21.8 and 21.8 mm BL, respectively.All fin rays reached the same fixed number of adult fish at about28 mm BL. The comb-like teeth began to form at approximately30 mm BL and were fully developed at about 40–50 mm BL.The proportions of P. a. ryukyuensis specimens,which were consistent with adult fish, occurred at approximately40 mm BL.  相似文献

Tank respirometry was used to study the interactive effects of protein:lipid level (55%:11% vs. 42%:16%; both diets isoenergetic) and temperature (11, 6 and 2 °C) on the magnitude and duration of specific dynamic action (SDA) in juvenile Atlantic cod and haddock. The protein:lipid level did not affect any measured variable. However, numerous temperature and species effects were observed. For example, although the maximum post-feeding oxygen consumption (30–50% above routine metabolic rate; RMR) and SDA duration (∼55–85 h; SDADUR) were not affected by temperature, SDADUR g−1 of food increased from 11 to 2 °C (from ∼3 to 12 h g food−1). While absolute SDA (mg O2) decreased by ∼60–65% in cod and ∼75% in haddock from 11 to 2 °C, due to a concomitant decrease in food consumption from ∼2.0% to 0.6% body mass, SDA comprised between 3.3% and 5.2% of the dietary energy content at all temperatures. Finally, RMR at 11 and 2 °C and SDADUR at 2 °C were 25–35% and 25% greater in cod, respectively, as compared with haddock. These results suggest that feeding reduced protein diets at low water temperatures is unlikely to improve the growth of these species.  相似文献

ABSTRACT: Temperature and salinity ranges in which Gymnodinium catenatum (Hiroshima Bay strain) showed specific growth rates higher than 0.2/day were approximately 20–30°C and 20–32. The specific growth rate (μ), expressed as a polynomial equation as functions of temperature ( T ; °C) and salinity ( S ) were μ = (−6.84 × 10−4 T 2 + 0.0354 T – 0.213) × (−1.03 × 10−3 S 2 + 0.0579 S – 0.548)/0.31; the maximum growth rate (0.31/day) was obtained at 25°C and 30. From a comparison with field data recording temperature, salinity and light intensity, this species may be expected to bloom from summer to autumn in Hiroshima Bay.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   Thermal tolerance was studied in a rainbow trout strain successively selected through high temperature breeding at 20–27°C since 1966 in Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan. The hatching rate and fry mortality at high temperatures were examined in the selected strain along with normal strains cultured at water temperature of 9–17°C. The hatching rate of embryos fertilized at either 10 or 14°C and subsequently subjected to high temperatures in the blastula or neurula stage of the selected strain, was marginally higher than that of the normal strain counterparts. The upper 50% lethal temperatures (LT50) for embryos in the early segmentation, blastula and neurula stages of the selected strain were also higher than those of the normal strain counterparts. Death temperatures and LT50 of fries acclimated to 20°C of the selected strain were significantly higher than those of the normal strains. However, no difference in the critical thermal maximum was detected between the different strains. These results suggest that the selected strain of rainbow trout established by selecting successively for many generations at high temperatures acquired a degree of thermal tolerance.  相似文献
