The effect of three different temperatures on growth in a first progeny generation, hatchery reared, subarctic population of European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus L.) were investigated. The whitefish (start weight 444 g, ±SD 125 g) were reared for 60 days at three constant temperatures; 15, 18 and 21°C and under ambient light regimes for 70°N latitude. The results showed that temperature had a significant influence on the growth of the fish with the highest increase in weight increment occurring at 18°C (mean final weight 656 g ± SD 151 g) compared with the growth of fish held at 15°C (mean final weight 591 g ± SD 143 g) and 21°C (mean final weight 505 g ± SD 121 g). The cumulative per cent mortality of the fish during the experimental period increased with increasing temperature, from 10% at 15°C to 30% at 21°C. The present study indicates that the optimal temperature for farming of European whitefish is somewhere between 15 and 18°C rather than between 18 and 21°C.  相似文献

According to the Food and Agricultural Organisation of United Nations seaweeds are being increasingly farmed rather than gathered. It is evident that, seaweed mariculture holds considerable promise for diversifying the livelihood of low-income, artisanal fishermen. Nevertheless, increased labour constraints have been realised as a bottleneck for the sustainability of farming in developing countries, where spending on infrastructure cost is meager. We herein report a tube-net farming for industrially important red alga Gracilaria edulis and also a new design for a harvester. The average biomass yield reported for the tube-net method over a 45 day growth cycle was 11.93 ± 2.55 kg fr wt raft−1; while the average daily growth rate was 3.40 ± 0.57% day−1. Harvesting is a critical step which determines the quality of a product. However, traditional methods do not allow segregation of product-rich (SAP and hydrocolloid) older thallus, from the growing apical tips. A two stage harvesting operation successfully achieved segregation of 33.87–55.56% of the clean apical biomass and 35.95–65.02% of the basal portion of the alga, leaving behind an empty tube for re-stocking. The tube-net farming method, coupled with an improved harvesting efficiency was aimed at developing appropriate management strategies for commercial farming of seaweeds.  相似文献

We determined through morphological and rbcL phylogenetic analyses that a previously unidentified, but introduced species of macroalga, which has been easily cultivated in indoor tanks in Japan, is Agardhiella subulata (Solieriaceae). Additionally, the photosynthetic biology of this alga was examined by inducing photosynthetic activity under a variety of water temperatures and photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) to clarify the optimal conditions needed for its efficient cultivation. Photosynthetic activity was evaluated by using both dissolved oxygen (DO) and pulse amplitude modulated-chlorophyll fluorometric (PAM) techniques, and focused on elucidating temperature and PAR levels that would potentially maximize productivity. The DO method revealed that the net photosynthetic rates at 24 °C quickly increased as PAR increased, and approached a P max of 27.8 mg O2 g ww ?1  min?1 (95 % Bayesian credible interval, BCI 23.8–32.1). The maximum gross photosynthetic rate occurred at 26.7 °C (BCI 24.4–28.3 °C). However, PAM experiments indicated that for the maximum quantum yield, the optimal temperature was 23.7 °C (BCI 22.7–24.6) and the maximum relative electron rates occurred when the water temperature was 31.0 °C (BCI 30.6–31.5). This study suggests that the broad tolerance of maximal photosynthetic activity to temperature (22.7–31.5 °C) is one of the main reasons why this alga can be successfully cultivated year-round.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to determine the microbiological quality of farmed giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) collected from four freshwater farms located in Kerala (India). Microbiological counts on whole, deheaded, and deheaded and deveined prawn as well as on head and intestine were determined. Average counts (log10 cfu g?1) on whole prawn were 6.9 (total mesophilic counts (TPC) at 37°C) and 4.1 (psychrotrophic count at 7°C). The results indicated that the aerobic counts were within the acceptable limit. The levels of enterococci and faecal coliforms in farmed M. rosenbergii were high. There was an increase in the numbers of enterococci and Staphylococcus aureus after deheading. The major groups of bacteria comprising the flora of M. rosenbergii were Aeromonadaceae, Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas. Farmed M. rosenbergii carried pathogenic bacteria such as Enterococcus spp., S. aureus, Aeromonas hydrophila, A. veronii biovar sobria and Clostridium perfringens. The results of the study suggest adoption of good farming and post harvest practices to improve the microbiological quality of farmed freshwater prawn.  相似文献

This study was carried out to compare growth, intestinal enzymes activity, antioxidation and nonspecific immunity of loach between farmed and imitative ecological farming loach, Misgurnus anguillicaudatus. Loach from farmed (average body weight 15.03 ± 0.36 g) and imitative ecological farming (average body weight 12.44 ± 0.62 g) population were used to analyse growth, whole-body composition, intestinal enzymes, antioxidant enzymes activity and resistance to bacteria. The results showed specific growth rate, average daily gain and protease, lipase, amylase and γ-GT activities in intestine and hepatopancreas of farmed loach were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than of imitative ecological farming loach. However, total protein, lysozyme and albumin contents and superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities of imitative ecological farming loach were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than of farmed loach. Moreover, resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila of imitative ecological farming loach was higher than of farmed loach (p < 0.05). Taken together, ecological farming loach possesses higher antioxidant capacity and resistance to bacteria than farmed loach.  相似文献

This study investigated short‐term effects of increasing water temperature from 27 to 41°C on survival and feed consumption of Penaeus indicus at three different ages: PL25 (postlarvae 25 days old), PL50 and PL90. For each age group, water temperature was maintained at 27°C in the control, but increased to 32, 35, 38 and 41°C at a rate of 1°C every eight hours. The temperature was then kept stable until the end of the 7‐day experiment. Results showed that increasing water temperature affected both survival and feed consumption of the experimental shrimps (p < .01). Survival was highest at 32 and 35°C ranging from 93.8% to 100%, but significantly reduced to 40.0%–81.6% at 38°C. No shrimp survived the 41°C treatment. PL25 were more tolerant to 38–41°C than PL50 and PL90 in terms of survival. Increasing water temperature had no effects on feed consumption of PL25 (p > .05). For PL50 and PL90, feed consumption significantly increased at 38 and 41°C (p < .01) and was similar within the range of 27–35°C. This study suggests that P. indicus in tropical areas can tolerate water temperatures of at least 35°C and should be considered for farming during the summer time.  相似文献

Mariculture of the brown alga Hizikia fusiformis (Harvey) Okamura as an export‐oriented human food has been there more for than 20 years in China. It is now one of the five major farmed algal species along the Chinese coast. Stable and sufficient supply of young seedlings for scaling up the cultivation has been a problem throughout the farming history of this species due to the unique dioecious life cycle and relatively short time window of sexual reproduction in nature. These two factors led to a practical difficulty in obtaining zygotes at identical developmental stage in viable amounts for seedling production. A key solution to this problem is to control the synchronization of the receptacle development and to realize the simultaneous discharge of male and female gametes, such that the fertilization rate could be greatly enhanced. Focusing on one of the farmed populations in this report, we present our results on mass production of seedlings using the synchronization technique on a large scale performed in 2007. Totally 5.5 hundred million embryos were obtained from 100 kg female sporophytes. The seedlings were raised up to 3.5 mm in length in greenhouse tanks over a month and were further grown in open sea for over 3 months at two experimental sites. The success of mass production of seedlings in this alga helped to lay the basis for future trials in other species in the genus of Sargassum that have identical life cycle.  相似文献

Trials were conducted to determine effects of AQUI-S™ sedation during harvest (rested-harvest) on physiological responses and fillet quality of channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus. Rested-harvest is defined as application of an anesthetic immediately before harvest to reduce fish activity associated with a normal harvest. Doses of 25–35 ppm AQUI-S™ were effective for rested-harvest of catfish (loss of equilibrium in 3 to 10 min and 100% survival following recovery). Time to loss of equilibrium and time to recovery following sedation with 35 ppm AQUI-S™ increased as water temperature decreased from 30 °C to 10 °C. Catfish exposed to 25 ppm AQUI-S™, 35 ppm AQUI-S™, 100 ppm trincaine methanesulfonate, and 8 ppm metomidate had lower blood lactate, cortisol, and glucose and higher blood pH than unsedated fish exposed to a low-water stress. Rested-harvest (RH) catfish had higher muscle and blood pH, lower blood and muscle lactate, and higher muscle ATP levels than catfish exposed to a 45 min low-water stress. Rates of muscle pH decrease, ATP decrease, and lactate increase accelerated as storage temperature decreased from 15 °C to 5 °C in RH fish acclimated to summer temperatures (33 °C), conversely these rates accelerated as storage temperature increased from 5 °C to 15 °C in RH fish acclimated to winter temperatures (7 °C). Based on physiological response (higher muscle pH, lower blood lactate, delayed time to rigor), post-sedation euthanasia by CO2 was superior to post-sedation euthanasia by AQUI-S™ overdose (150 ppm), nitrogen gas, or electrical stunning. Compared to fillets from fish exposed to simulated industry transport conditions, fillets from RH/CO2 euthanised fish had higher pH 1 h post-slaughter, and less drip-loss and lower L⁎ and a⁎ color values during 7 days of iced storage. RH/CO2 and control fillets were not different for shelf-life based on bacterial counts. Rested-harvest with AQUI-S™ followed by CO2 euthanasia has potential to improve catfish fillet quality, but AQUI-S™ approval, development of rested-harvest strategies, and demonstration of economic benefits of rested-harvest will be required for adoption of rested-harvest to commercial catfish production.  相似文献

In this study, we prove that the mass die-offs occurring in conjunction with red adductor disease in pearl oysters are caused by an infection. Our research also reveals the influence of water temperature on the onset of the disease and its progress, and we propose measures that are effective in mitigating harm from the disease.To analyze the effect of water temperature on the onset and progress of the disease, laboratory infection experiments were performed over a range of water temperatures (13 °C–31 °C). The experiments showed that disease onset and progress were highly dependent on water temperature. No outbreak was observed at temperatures below 16 °C, while the adductors of experimentally infected oysters turned red in a short time at temperatures between 19 °C and 31 °C. Our research showed that the cumulative water temperature value for days when water temperature was above 19 °C (AT19 = Σ(Ti), Ti > 19) is an effective numerical indicator for the onset of red adductor disease.We also found that when pearl oysters already infected with red adductor disease at a high rate are kept at water temperatures below 16 °C in the winter for a certain minimum period of time, clinical signs regress, and that this treatment is also effective in delaying relapses of the disease with rising water temperatures in the spring. We determined a numerical indicator for finding the low-temperature index that is most effective in delaying disease onset. This is the low-temperature burden based on the number of days with water temperatures of 16 °C or below and those days' temperatures (LTI16 = Σ(16 − Ti), Ti < 16 °C). We found that the larger the LTI16 value, the greater the effectiveness in suppressing the onset of red adductor disease. Hence, appropriate low-water-temperature management in the winter helps prevent the relapse and progress of the disease in the spring and beyond when water temperature rises.Results of this research strongly suggest that the LTI16 value in wintering fisheries and the cumulative water temperature of the days in spring and beyond when the water temperature is above 19 °C (AT19) make it possible to predict when red adductor disease will break out in pearl oysters, and therefore help efforts to mitigate damage from relapses.  相似文献

The commercial chemotherapeutant formulations SLICE® and AlphaMax® [active ingredients emamectin benzoate (EB) and deltamethrin respectively] are used in fin fish aquaculture to control parasitic sea lice. In some regions, the use of these substances has drawn concern from the commercial fishing industry regarding potential adverse effects on non‐target organisms. In the present work, biodegradation of EB and deltamethrin, and their commercial formulations, was investigated over 135 days at 4 and 10°C in fresh marine sediments collected from underneath an active open net‐pen salmon farm. EB incubated as either pure substance or commercial formulation was recalcitrant at both temperatures under abiotic and biotic conditions. Deltamethrin incubated alone or as its commercial formulation degraded slowly at 10°C (t1/2 = 330 ± 107 and 201 ± 27.1 days respectively). At 4°C, deltamethrin degradation was only significant following incubation as commercial formulation (t1/2 = 285 ±112 days). Degradation rates of EB and deltamethrin as pure substances versus their commercial formulations were not statistically different. Depletion of deltamethrin was observed in 10°C inactive sediments indicating that transformation occurred (at least in part) via an abiotic pathway. Overall, these data provide further insight into the fate and persistence of EB from the ongoing use of SLICE® in British Columbia's salmon aquaculture industry. AlphaMax® is not registered in Canada but is used in other salmon farming countries to control sea lice.  相似文献

Microsatellite DNA loci and the Pantophysin locus (Pan I) were used to investigate levels of genetic diversity within farmed strains of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua and to compare them with the wild source population. A total of 282 farmed samples originating from a spawning ground off the south-west coast of Iceland were sampled in the years 2002 and 2003, and 258 wild cod were collected at the same spawning ground in the same years. The farmed strains exhibited a lower mean number of alleles and allelic diversity than the wild samples at the microsatellite loci. Significant differences were observed between wild and farmed samples both in allele and genotype frequencies at the Pan I locus. We argue that the genetic divergence of wild and farmed samples of Atlantic cod may be due to a small number of effective founding breeders contributing to the genetic variation of the farmed strains, inducing a reduction in allelic diversity. We discuss the potential effect of breeding practices on the genetic diversity of Atlantic cod.  相似文献

Run timing of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar vs. wild fish was compared by the use of video camera surveillance in 15 rivers over several years, covering 1600 km of the Norwegian coastline (from 58°N to 69°N). Annual runs of wild salmon varied among rivers from <200 fish to more than 10 000. During the surveillance period that for most rivers extended from late May to early October, larger‐sized salmon (fish ≥ 65 cm) generally entered the rivers earlier than small fish. The percentage of salmon identified as escaped farmed fish ranged from 0.1% to 17% across rivers with an average of 4.3%. Estimates of escapees are, however, assumed to represent minimum values because an unknown number of farmed fish passing the video cameras may have been misclassified as wild fish. By the use of a linear mixed model and generalised additive mixed models, it was found that the relationship between run timing and fish length differed significantly between farmed and wild salmon. While small‐sized farmed and wild fish (<65 cm) entered the river at about the same time, wild large salmon returned on average 1–2 weeks earlier than similarly sized escapees. The proportion of large‐sized farmed escapees also increased until late August and decreased thereafter. In contrast, there was a relatively constant and lower proportion of small‐sized escapees throughout the season. Within the surveillance period, there was no evidence of any exceptionally late runs of fish classified as escaped farmed salmon.  相似文献

Some species belonging to Ostreopsis, a benthic dinoflagellate genus, are known to produce palytoxin analogues. Around the coastal regions of Japan, the toxic Ostreopsis sp. 1 and Ostreopsis sp. 6 which are genetically divergent from other species of Ostreopsis are present from the southern to northern regions and in the southern region, respectively. The present study examined the growth responses of these strains to seven temperatures (15–35 °C) in combination with five salinities (20–40) and discusses the effects of temperature and salinity on their distribution and bloom dynamics in Japan. Tolerable temperatures and salinities ranged 15–30 °C and 25–40 for Ostreopsis sp. 1, and 17.5–30 °C and 20–40 for Ostreopsis sp. 6. The optimal temperature ranges which gave growth rates of >90 % of maximal growth rate of each strain were 22–25 °C for Ostreopsis sp. 1 and 24–30 °C for Ostreopsis sp. 6. Therefore, Ostreopsis sp. 1 is putatively tolerant to lower temperatures and thus possesses adaptability to colder waters of relatively higher latitude regions of Japan, whereas Ostreopsis sp. 6 presumably possesses adaptability to warmer waters of the southern region. We conclude that growth responses of Japanese toxic Ostreopsis sp. 1 and Ostreopsis sp. 6 to temperature-salinity affect their distribution and bloom dynamics in Japan.  相似文献

Gonadal recrudescence in Barbus altianalis from River Nile, Jinja (33°05E; 0°45N) Uganda was studied prior to induced spawning. Oocytes in B. altianalis were found to develop in cohorts suggesting batch spawning throughout the year with pronounced spawning activities coinciding with rainfall peaks of April and September. There was a strong positive correlation between rainfall and gonadosomatic index (rS = 0.75, P = 0.008). B. altianalis had low fecundity (6.0 ± 2.0 per gram) and large‐sized eggs (2.97 ± 0.1 mm). Induced spawning was successful with exogenous hormones and water current. Results from this study suggested that total striping may not be appropriate, but larger eggs would confer high survival of offsprings under optimal conditions. The success registered in induced spawning of B. altianalis provides a breakthrough in seed production for multiplication and culture of this economically important fish species.  相似文献

The embryonic and larval development of three White Sea cold-water fish species, rate of yolk sac absorption, age at first feeding and their survival and growth when fed different food organisms, were studied.Eggs were obtained from spawners in the Bay of Kandalaksha, White Sea, and incubated in troughs and aquaria at a mean temperature of 1.5 °C, slightly above that of the sea. The incubation period for polar cod eggs lasted 35 days, for arctic flounder, 42 days and for navaga eggs, 48 days. Emergent larvae were 5.5–6.0 mm long and began feeding at 2–4 °C, 5–6 days (navaga) and 12–14 days (polar cod) after hatching, when their yolk sac was still fairly large.They were fed day-old Artemia nauplii and zooplankton taken from the sea and consisting of Calanus and Pseudocalanus nauplii 400–600 μ in length.The period of establishing first feeding is the most critical for larvae.  相似文献

The effects of three different temperatures on the growth and maturation of the offspring of cultured versus wild populations of juvenile arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus L.) were investigated. The fish (start weight 17 g) were reared for 5 months at constant temperatures of 12, 14 and 16°C under a continuous light regime (LD24:0). Growth performance was significantly influenced by both temperature and source population. The offspring from the farmed fish displayed significantly higher mean weights at all temperatures compared with the offspring from the wild fish. The results indicate that the optimal temperature for growth (Topt) decreases with increasing fish size in the offspring of both cultivated and wild fish. Significant differences in length–weight relationship were found, with the offspring of wild fish displaying higher condition factor throughout the experiment. The results demonstrate that the offspring from multiple generation farmed population of arctic charr are better adapted to high temperatures compared with the offspring (F1 generation) from a wild population of arctic charr, and the former are also able to maintain growth at higher temperatures. There was a significant difference in maturation between the two populations, as the offspring from cultured fish displayed significantly lower level of maturation: 0%, 4% and 2% mature compared with 24%, 40% and 42% in the offspring from wild fish at temperatures of 12, 14 and 16°C respectively. The offspring from farmed strains of arctic charr thus appear to be the most suitable population for aquaculture.  相似文献

This work studied some of the metabolic responses of Nephrops norvegicus to a progressive reduction in water oxygen tension (PwO2) at 12 °C. Experiments were designed to simulate water quality conditions that may occur during the trade of live crustaceans. Oxygen consumption rates and ammonia efflux rates were found to be constant over a wide range of PwO2 values (20.4–5.9 kPa). A similar result was found for the difference between post-branchial and pre-branchial oxygen concentrations (20.4–2.6 kPa), obtained from a separate experiment. Anaerobic pathways, however, were activated after PwO2 reached 6.3 kPa, as blood lactate and glucose concentrations increased from 1.24 ± 0.08 and 1.17 ± 0.19 (T0 values) to 10.55 ± 8.99 and 3.63 ± 0.89 mg · 100 mL−1 respectively. N. norvegicus was able to maintain blood pH levels at relatively constant values despite a drop in water pH levels and the accumulation of lactate observed at low PwO2. Heart rates also remained stable during PwO2 reductions, but scaphognathite beat rate increased considerably, probably as an attempt to maintain steady weight-specific oxygen consumption rates. N. norvegicus appeared to be well adapted to cope with progressive hypoxia as may occur during holding and transportation procedures.  相似文献

A simulation was carried out by using a 3D numerical model for estimate the nutrient level discharged from striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus intensively farming in the Mekong River, Vietnam. The simulated period was dry season from April 24, 2007, to April 27, 2007. Both dissolved and particulate forms of nutrients were simulated. A real status of water environment and scenario of discharge after applying fishpond effluent for irrigation of rice field were estimated in My Hoa Hung fish farm, An Giang Province. Simulated results were verified by observed data. Our results showed that nutrient levels at farming area in dry season were temporarily high and local. Applying waste water from the fishpond for irrigation of rice field could greatly reduce nutrients level in the fish farming area, the nutrient levels were 77 % for total nitrogen and 73 % for phosphorus. Therefore, recycling nutrient from fishpond effluent for irrigation of rice field illustrated an effective technology for pollution reduction which is a crucial issue to enable sustainable development of intensively farmed striped catfish.  相似文献

In this study, body shape of hybrid and presumptive introgressed South American silversides was studied. Body shape of O. bonariensis and O. hatcheri from wild populations and farmed stocks was compared to provide basic information on the effects of fish farming on morphometric parameters. Subsequently, wild presumptive introgressed individuals and artificially hybridized farmed individuals were morphologically analysed to assess the effects of hybridization on the same parameters. Most farmed purebred individuals were shorter and higher than their wild counterparts, which is probably due to the favourable growth conditions compared to the wild habitat. However, the results evidenced that purebred individuals were more slender than both hybrid (farmed) fish and introgressed (wild) fish. Further studies on the growth performance of hybrid Odontesthes will be required in order to assess whether the combination of hybridization and sterilization could produce, under farming conditions, growth performances which satisfy the requirements of aquaculture.  相似文献

A 30-day acclimation trial was conducted using Tor putitora to elucidate its thermal tolerance, oxygen consumption, haemato-biochemical variables and selected enzymatic activities at five acclimation temperatures (AT). Juveniles of T. putitora were randomly distributed among five treatment groups (20, 23, 26, 29 and 32 ± 0.5 °C). There was a significant curvilinear increase in critical thermal maxima (CTmax) (y = ?0.0693x 2 + 1.7927x + 34.628, R 2 = 0.996) and lethal thermal maxima (LTmax) (y = ?0.1493x 2 + 2.3407x + 35.092, R 2 = 0.991) with increasing AT. The oxygen consumption rate increased significantly with increasing AT. The Q 10 values were 1.16 between 20 and 23 °C, 3.09 between 23 and 26 °C, 1.31 between 26 and 29 °C and 1.76 between 29 and 32 °C of AT. The acclimation response ratios were ranged between 0.37 and 0.59. Catalase, superoxide dismutase and ATPase activities were increased linearly in liver, gill and kidney, while brain acetylcholine esterase activity decreased linearly with increasing AT. Blood glucose remained unchanged up to AT of 26 °C and increased significantly at AT of 29 and 32 °C. Haemoglobin content was increased linearly with increasing AT. The highest WBC count was observed at 20 °C, and no significant changes found till AT of 26 °C and significantly decreased at 32 °C. Total serum protein and globulin were significantly decreased with increasing AT. Highest values were observed at 20 °C and remained consistent till 26 °C, then decreased significantly. There was no significant change in A/G ratio through the AT 20–29 °C and increased significantly at 32 °C. The increase in CTmax, LTmax and oxygen consumption rate with increasing AT may suggest that the thermal tolerance of T. putitora is dependent on its prior thermal exposure history, and it could adapt to higher AT by altering its haemato-biochemical variables.  相似文献
