Using mark-recapture methods, the movements of the fluvial form of masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou masou) in a mountain stream on the island of Kyushu, Japan, were studied. Most (78%) of the masu salmon were recaptured in the
pool in which they had been originally caught and tagged. Of those that moved between pools, the proportion of individuals
that moved during the breeding period was not significantly higher than the proportion that moved during the non-breeding
period. However, during the breeding period, a higher proportion of larger salmon moved than did smaller fish. The proportion
of mobile large males during breeding period was higher than that for small males. Also, it was found that a few individuals
showed long-range movement in the autumn. As a long-term movement, 78 individual fish (65%) that were recaptured more than
three times showed high sedentary tendencies. Sixteen individual mobile fish (13%) moved and returned to the original pool.
Fluvial form of masu salmon in Kyushu show a high sedentary nature; however, large mature males seem to actively move in search
of female during breeding period. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: The fourspine sculpin Cottus kazika is indigenous to Japan and found in Honshu except for the waters facing the Seto Inland Sea, and was also found in southern Shikoku and eastern Kyushu. This species has a catadromous lifestyle and migrates as juveniles from the sea to the middle reaches of rivers to grow. The growth pattern of this fish was investigated by a mark-and-recapture method from July 1994 to December 1996, in the Nigorikawa River, a tributary of the Gonokawa River system, Shimane Prefecture. 0-year-old fish of 50–70 mm total length ( TL ) occurred in the study area from June to July, grew to 90–140 mm TL by the following April, and attained 160–210 mm TL by December. This fish grew rapidly in September–November and April–July, almost ceasing to grow in July–September. It seems that this stagnant growth phase in summer is a characteristic of the seasonal growth pattern of C. kazika . A rearing experiment indicated that the growth rate of C. kazika was higher at 16–22°C than at 12–14 and 24–26°C. This result supports the field evidence of a stagnant growth phase in summer in the Nigorikawa River. 相似文献

In October 2001, anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum acutatum Simmonds ex Simmonds was found on three-leaf akebia (Akebia trifoliata) in Saitama, Japan. This is the first report of anthracnose on three-leaf akebia caused by C. acutatum. 相似文献

Genome‐wide association mapping for complex traits in cattle populations is a powerful, but expensive, selection tool. The DNA pooling technique can potentially reduce the cost of genome‐wide association studies. However, in DNA pooling design, the additional variance generated by pooling‐specific errors must be taken into account. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate factors such as: (i) the accuracy of allele frequency estimation; (ii) the magnitude of errors in pooling construction and in the array; and (iii) the effect of the number of replicate arrays on P‐values estimated by a genome‐wide association study. Results showed that the Illumina correction method is the most effective method to correct the allele frequency estimation; pooling errors, especially array variance, should be taken into account in DNA pooling design; and the risk of a type I error can be reduced by using at least two replicate arrays. These results indicate the practical capability and cost‐effectiveness of pool‐based genome‐wide association studies using the BovineSNP50 array in a cattle population. 相似文献

The immunomodulatory effects of beta-endorphin were studied by measurements of the production of superoxide anion, phagocytosis and chemotaxis of kidney phagocytic cells in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. The production of superoxide anion in phagocytic cells increased significantly in rainbow trout injected with chum salmon beta-endorphin. The responses were dose-dependent. The phagocytosis and chemotaxis also significantly increased in kidney phagocytic cells of rainbow trout injected with alpha-endorphin. These results show that beta-endorphin in rainbow trout activates the function of phagocytic cells in vivo. 相似文献

ORF69 in the cyanophage infecting Microcystis aeruginosa, Ma-LMM01, shows homology to the family 19 chitinases where the catalytic domain has structural similarity to lysozyme. Chitinases
hydrolyze chitin, a β-1, 4-linked monopolymer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc); whereas lysozymes hydrolyzes peptidoglycan, alternating β-1, 4-linked copolymers of N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) and GlcNAc. Using amino acid sequence comparison to ORF69, the putative sugar binding residues, Gln162
and Lys165, from the barley chitinase (the model enzyme for the family 19 chitinases) corresponding to subsites −4 and −3
were found to be replaced with Gly209 and Ile213, respectively, in ORF69. To analyze their contribution to substrate binding
affinity, ORF69 was cloned into Escherichia coli; and two mutant proteins G209Q and I213K were prepared using site-directed mutagenesis. The wild-type gene product (gp69)
showed both lysozyme and chitinase activities. In contrast, the I213K mutant showed a decrease (70%) in lysozyme activity
and a significant increase (50%) in chitinase activity; whereas, the G209Q mutant almost completely abolished both enzyme
activities. The data suggest the Ile213 residue is involved in recognizing the substrate MurNAc; and Gly209 has significant
contribution in chitinase and lysozyme activities for the wild-type gp69. 相似文献

Human interferon-α (huIFN-α) is an important immunomodulatory substance used in the treatment and prevention of numerous infectious and immune-related diseases in animals. However, the immunostimulatory effects of huIFN-α in fish remain to be investigated. In the current study, the immune responses of the carp species Cyprinus carpio L. to treatment with huIFN-α were analyzed via measurement of superoxide anion production, phagocytic activity and the expression of cytokine genes including interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin 10. Low doses of huIFN-α were administered orally once a day for 3 days, and sampling was carried out at 1, 3 and 5 days post-treatment. Our results indicate that a low dose of huIFN-α significantly increased phagocytic activity and superoxide anion production in the carp kidney. The huIFN-α-treated fish also displayed a significant upregulation in cytokine gene expression. The current study demonstrates the stimulatory effects of huIFN-α on the carp immune system and highlights the immunomodulatory role of huIFN-α in fish. 相似文献

Immunomodulatory effects of alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone on common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)
The immunomodulatory effects of phagocytic cells in common carp Cyprinus carpio L., by alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) was analyzed in vitro. Carp head kidney leucocytes were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 0.05, 0.1, 1 and 10 nM alpha-MSH and the production of superoxide anion was measured via the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) in vitro. Macrophages incubated with alpha-MSH showed an increase in the production of superoxide anion in comparison to control macrophages cultured without hormone. Phagocytic cells treated with alpha-MSH also displayed increased phagocytosis. Furthermore, carp lymphocytes treated with alpha-MSH increased the mitogenic responses to phytohaemoagglutinin (PHA-P). These results show that alpha-MSH directly influences fish immune responses. 相似文献
