Retained levels of dietary α-, γ- and δ-tocopherol in tissues and body fluids of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, L.     

K. Hamre  & Ø. Lie 《Aquaculture Nutrition》1997,3(2):99-107

The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between dietary supplementation and concentration of γ- and δ-tocopherol (TOH) in tissues of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar , L., when α-TOH was fed at a constant level. Post-smolt Atlantic salmon (230 g) in duplicate tanks were fed a fish-meal-based diet with 250 g kg⁻¹ lipid. Different combinations of RRR -tocopherylacetate preparations were added to give the following levels of TOH (mg kg⁻¹) in diets 1–4, respectively: 150α; 150α+ 100δ; 150α+ 50γ+ 50δ; 150α+ 100γ+ 100δ. The concentrations of γ- and δ-TOH in most tissues were directly proportional to the feed concentrations. Exceptions were γ-TOH in erythrocytes, spleen and kidney and δ-TOH in heart muscle, where the intercept with the y -axis was significantly different from zero. The relative retained levels of α-, γ- and δ-TOH in most tissues were similar to their biological activities in mammals. An exception was muscle and adipose tissue, where γ- and δ-TOH were retained at rates of 70–90% and 20–35% compared with α-TOH, respectively. α-TOH was retained to a greater extent when α-TOH was fed alone than when γ- and δ-TOH were added to the diet. Fish growth was significantly correlated to total dietary TOH concentration. The data suggest that turnover of tocopherols in Atlantic salmon is similar to that in mammals, i.e. that discrimination between the tocopherols is mediated through competition for a tocopherol-binding protein in the liver, and consequently that α-TOH is preferentially secreted in very low density lipoprotein. Muscle and adipose tissue appear to be supplied with tocopherols from chylomicrons that have not yet been exposed to the hepatic discrimination mechanism.  相似文献

Gravity Waves in Jupiter's Thermosphere     

LA Young  RV Yelle  R Young  A Seiff  DB Kirk 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1997,276(5309):108-111

The Atmosphere Structure Instrument on the Galileo probe detected wavelike temperature fluctuations superimposed on a 700-kelvin temperature increase in Jupiter's thermosphere. These fluctuations are consistent with gravity waves that are viscously damped in the thermosphere. Moreover, heating by these waves can explain the temperature increase measured by the probe. This heating mechanism should be applicable to the thermospheres of the other giant planets and may help solve the long-standing question of the source of their high thermospheric temperatures.  相似文献

分子遗传技术在家畜遗传评定中的应用     

狄江  王琼  拉扎提 《中国畜牧兽医》2009,36(7):112-115

基于表型信息和谱系信息估计基因加性效应值的种畜遗传评定方法在家畜遗传改良中发挥了很大作用,但因其无法真正了解控制经济性状的遗传本质,影响了家畜遗传改良的进一步进展。分子标记辅助选择可在一定程度上提高种畜遗传评定准确性,但在目前不能精确定位QTL或基因时,其效率受到很大影响。提高种畜遗传评定准确性的最有效途径应是直接利用控制经济性状的基因,后基因组时代的功能基因组研究的快速发展为实现这一目标提供了契机。同时,多个家畜品种基因组测序完成和大量SNP多态性的发现,使得利用覆盖全基因组多态性标记信息的基因组选择方法为家畜遗传评定开拓了又一条途径。  相似文献   

Use of azadirachtin as a larvicide or feeding deterrent for control of western flower thrips in orchard systems     

LA. Pearsall  EJ. Hogue 《Phytoparasitica》2000,28(3):219-228

Field trials were carried out to assess the efficacy of a 4% azadirachtin (aza)-containing neem seed extract EC, against damage by western flower thrips [Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)] on nectarine crops in the Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, Canada. Several trials were conducted during the years 1993 to 1995 to assess the repellent and larvicidal properties of aza, specifically: whether it was effective against adult or larval thrips; how the effects differed with concentration of aza; and whether female WFT avoided aza-treated flowers. Our results showed that aza has only limited effectiveness as a control agent against WFT on nectarines and the current formulation does not appear to limit larval development sufficiently to be deemed a possible control agent in this field situation.  相似文献   

The effect of temperature on ability of Lepeophtheirus salmonis to infect and persist on Atlantic salmon     

Sussie Dalvin  Lars Are Hamre  Rasmus Skern-Mauritzen  Tone Vågseth  Lars Stien  Frode Oppedal  Samantha Bui 《Journal of fish diseases》2020,43(12):1519-1529

The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is an ecologically and economically important parasite of salmonid fish. Temperature is a strong influencer of biological processes in salmon lice, with development rate increased at higher temperatures. The successful attachment of lice onto a host is also predicted to be influenced by temperature; however, the correlation of temperature with parasite survival is unknown. This study describes the effects of temperature on infection success, and survival on the host during development to the adult stage. To accurately describe infection dynamics with varying temperatures, infection success was recorded on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) between 2 and 10°C. Infection success ranged from 20% to 50% and was strongly correlated with temperature, with the highest success at 10°C. Parasite loss was monitored during development at eight temperatures with high loss of lice at 3 and 24°C, whilst no loss was recorded in the temperature range from 6 to 21°C. Sea temperatures thus have large effects on the outcome of salmon louse infections and should be taken into account in the management and risk assessment of this parasite. Improving understanding of the infection dynamics of salmon lice will facilitate epidemiological modelling efforts and efficiency of pest management strategies.  相似文献   

Effects of graded levels of minerals in a multi‐nutrient package on Gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) fed a plant‐based diet     

David Domínguez  Daniel Montero  Lidia Robaina  Kristin Hamre  Genciana Terova  Vasileios Karalazos  Marisol Izquierdo 《Aquaculture Nutrition》2020,26(4):1007-1018

Replacement of fish meal (FM) and oil (FO) by plant sources can alter the feed mineral profile. However, requirements of these nutrients have not been established for gilthead sea bream. The aim of the present study was to obtain information about the adequate levels of some of these minerals (such as Zn, Cu, Mn, Se, Co, Fe and Ca) in diets with low FM and FO levels. Six plant‐based practical diets were supplemented with increasing levels of a multi‐nutrient package for 155 days. Performance parameters, biochemical analyses of whole body, vertebrae, plasma and blood cells; haematocrit; expression of several genes in liver and vertebrae were conducted. Increasing multi‐nutrient package affected fish growth, expression of molecular markers and mineral content in different tissues. A regression method was used to establish a relation between multi‐nutrient package levels and different indicators. However, nutrient interactions made it difficult to obtain clear results and so specific effects of each mineral must be studied in more detail. Mineral supplementation was required for Zn, Cu, Mn, Se and Co, whilst basal levels of Ca were sufficient to cover the optimum levels. On the other hand, there is evidence regarding a possible interaction between Fe and Zn which reduced Fe availability and absorption.  相似文献   

Control of light condition affects the feeding regime and enables successful eye migration in Atlantic halibut juveniles     

Torstein Harboe  Anders Mangor-Jensen  Mari Moren  Kristin Hamre  Ivar Rnnestad 《Aquaculture (Amsterdam, Netherlands)》2009,290(3-4):250-255

Incomplete eye migration is one of the major problems in intensive production of juvenile Atlantic halibut. More than 60% of an average juvenile population reared according to best practice suffers from this abnormality. In commercial production, these fish are discharged and represent a substantial economic loss and a large welfare problem. In the present investigation it is demonstrated that by controlling diurnal light and darkness periods together with a meal based feeding regime, incomplete eye migration can be dramatically reduced in production systems for Atlantic halibut.Control groups were reared under continuous light conditions, whereas the experimental groups were given 7 h of darkness and 17 h of light during a 24 hour cycle, in a period lasting from 12 to 35 days post first-feeding. Otherwise both groups were reared under continuous light conditions. All larvae were fed short time enriched Artemia supplied two times daily.The experimental conditions did not affect the overall growth or survival up to day 85 after first feeding. However, 27 ± 3% of the fry reared under continuous light conditions had complete eye migration, whereas in juveniles reared under shifting light and darkness conditions, complete eye migration was 85 ± 7%. These results represent a major improvement in production systems for Atlantic halibut juveniles.  相似文献
