厚壳贻贝5-羟色胺2A受体(5-HT2AR)基因克隆和时空表达

为探究5-羟色胺2A受体（5-HT 2A receptor， 5-HT2AR）基因在海水贝类生长发育中的作用，本研究通过RACE技术和实时荧光定量PCR（qRT-PCR）克隆了厚壳贻贝5-HT2AR 基因的cDNA全长，并分析该基因的时空表达。结果显示，5-HT2AR基因全长2 636 bp，开放阅读框（ORF）2 124 bp，共编码707个氨基酸。序列分析结果显示该序列与人、小鼠、斑马鱼、长牡蛎和虾夷扇贝等物种分别具有45%、45%、48%、49%和67%的同源性。厚壳贻贝雌雄成体各组织和器官中均有5-HT2AR基因表达，雄性中的鳃表达量最高，而在雌性鳃、外套膜和性腺中的表达稍高于其他组织和器官；推测该基因可能与厚壳贻贝的摄食、对外界环境的感知及促进卵母细胞成熟有关。5-HT2AR基因在厚壳贻贝各发育阶段均有表达，且稚贝的表达量为眼点幼虫的1.4倍，推测5-HT2AR基因可能参与了调控厚壳贻贝幼虫的生长发育过程。本研究为进一步了解5-HT基因家族在双壳贝类中的功能奠定了基础。     

不同养殖密度对紫贻贝和披针形蜈蚣藻生态混养的影响

通过混养生态系统模拟试验研究了紫贻贝(Grateloupia lanceolata)和披针形蜈蚣藻(Mytilus edulis)不同养殖密度组合下的生态混养状况。选取壳长(45.14±3.85)mm的紫贻贝和长度(62.48±7.38)mm的披针形蜈蚣藻,采用5种湿重配比进行混养实验,分别为G1(1∶0)、G2(1∶0.25)、G3(1∶0.5)、G4(1∶1)和G5(1∶2)。每种组合中紫贻贝密度均为0.63 ind·L~(-1),而披针形蜈蚣藻密度分别为0 g·L~(-1)、1.25 g·L~(-1)、2.5 g·L~(-1)、5 g·L~(-1)、10 g·L~(-1)。36 d后,G3组中紫贻贝特定生长率为(0.21±0.03)%·d-1,极显著高于其它混养组[(0.11±0.028)~(0.21±0.03)%·d-1,P0.01],而单养组的紫贻贝特定生长率仅为(0.063±0.022)%·d-1;G3组中披针形蜈蚣藻特定生长率为(0.96±0.20)%·d-1,极显著高于其它混养组[(0.62±0.16)~(0.96±0.20)%·d-1,P0.01]。G3组生态系统对营养盐(NO_3~--N、NO_2~--N、NH_4~+-N、PO3-4-P)的去除率分别达到(91.38±1.40)%、(96.79±1.97)%、(98.38±2.06)%、(96.86±3.16)%,显著高于G2组(P0.05),而与G4和G5组没有显著性差异(P0.05)。本研究结果表明,当紫贻贝与披针形蜈蚣藻湿重比为1∶0.5时,可以取得较好的生态效应。     

Characterization of single‐nucleotide polymorphism markers in the Mediterranean mussel,Mytilus galloprovincialis

The Mediterranean mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis, is one of the most important aquaculture species in Europe. Appropriate molecular markers are required to evaluate genetic resources and to trace genealogies in breeding programmes for improving mussel culture. Microsatellites have been commonly applied to this purpose in other species. However, Mediterranean mussel microsatellites have demonstrated high frequencies of null alleles that hamper accurate estimates of population parameters and confident parentage inferences. As alternative markers, we have characterized in silico 25 potential single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in the Mediterranean mussel from expressed sequence tag (EST) public databases. The genotyping of SNPs was performed using a single‐base extension approach. Their polymorphism was evaluated in 47 individuals from an Atlantic population. Out of the 25 potential SNPs tested, 12 were technically feasible (producing a single amplicon) and polymorphic. All were biallelic and had an unbiased heterozygosity ranging from 0.160 to 0.504. One SNP was from a mitochondrial gene. The combined potential of nuclear SNPs for parentage assignment gave an exclusion probability of a false couple of parents of 0.9471. These markers will be useful for evaluating resources and tracing genealogies in genetic breeding programmes implemented to solve the main problems of mussel culture.     

4种天津近海产贝类牛磺酸和糖胺聚糖的粗提及含量比较

以毛蚶(Arco subcrenat)、紫贻贝(Mytilus edulis)、脉红螺(Rapana venosa)和四角蛤蜊(Mactra veneriformis)的软体部分为原料,经水煮法粗提牛磺酸和酶解法粗提糖胺聚糖,并比较了4种贝类中牛磺酸和糖胺聚糖的含量。结果表明,四角蛤蜊、毛蚶、脉红螺中的牛磺酸平均含量分别为2.708、3.532、3.662g/kg,以脉红螺中牛磺酸含量最为丰富;四角蛤蜊、紫贻贝、毛蚶中糖胺聚糖平均含量为8.27%、4.53%、3.87%,以四角蛤蜊的含量最高。     

杂交贻贝同工酶表达的初步分析

运用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳技术,对2种贻贝(厚壳贻贝、紫贻贝)稚贝及通过人工培育所得的二者的杂交后代稚贝同工酶表达状况进行分析.结果显示,所检测5种酶(SOD、MDH、ME、ATP、ADH)在上述3种贻贝中的表达极为相似,MDH在3种贻贝中除r迁移率相同的条带外,在紫贻贝中表达出迁移率较小、表达较弱的条带;SOD和ATP仅在厚壳贻贝中表达出比另外2种多1条迁移率最大的条带,ME则表现为紫贻贝少1条中间的条带,ADH在杂交贻贝和紫贻贝中表达完全相同,厚壳贻贝虽也表现为3条酶带,但迁移率明显不同.试验结果说明,厚壳贻贝和紫贻贝具有较近的亲缘关系,其杂交后代与二者均有一定的相似性,这与传统的分类方法所得的结论相一致.     

紫贻贝和厚壳贻贝杂交及F1代杂交优势初探

2005年-2007年对紫贻贝和厚壳贻贝种间进行了杂交生产性试验，通过亲贝强化培育、确认雌雄亲贝、改革育苗水体交换方法、投喂混合单细胞藻类、流水培养附着稚贝等技术，获得F₁代。结果表明，各试验组生长特性，正交F₁代﹥紫贻贝﹥厚壳贻贝﹥反交F₁代。其中正交F₁代获附着稚贝3.77亿粒，平均壳长为1.13 mm、平均壳高为0.78 mm，育苗成活率达35.57%。正交F₁除在孵化率上低于紫贻贝、厚壳贻贝外，在壳长、壳高、成活率等方面指标具有一定杂交优势，而反交F1代的杂交优势不明显。     

Effect of submerged time of collector ropes on the settlement capacity of Mytilus galloprovincialis L.

Submersion time of collector ropes influences settlement and larval metamorphosis of Mytilus galloprovincialis, which might be related to the biofilm development. In the present study, the effect of submersion time of collector ropes on the settlement of mussel seed was studied. The results of two experiments performed in an experimental long‐line in the Ría de Ares‐Betanzos have established a minimum submersion time of 41–46 days.     

厚壳贻贝不同组织中的微生物群落结构

为了解厚壳贻贝（Mytilus coruscus）各组织中微生物的分布差异,本实验在Illumina MiSeq 测序平台利用16S rDNA克隆子测序（V3-V4区）对嵊泗养殖贻贝的血淋巴、消化腺、肾脏、鳃、外套膜、性腺和足等7种组织中的微生物群落结构进行分析,并比较组织间微生物的多样性差异。结果显示,21个样本平均产生36,860条高质量序列。血淋巴共有1,237个OTU,其次是消化腺（1,014个OTU）和肾脏（1,015个OTU）,性腺最少（仅有553个OTU）。尽管血淋巴OTU数最高,但仅有9个独有OTU。肾脏拥有最多172个独有OTU,消化腺次之（144个独有OTU）。所有组织中均以变形菌门（Proteobacteria）、拟杆菌门（Bacteroidetes）和疣微菌门（Verrucomicrobia）为主要菌群。Alpha多样性指数分析显示血淋巴、消化腺和肾脏微生物多样性最高。以上结果表明,厚壳贻贝微生物存在一定的组织差异性,这将为今后深入阐释厚壳贻贝与微生物之间的相互作用及其调控机理奠定基础。     

The Negative Relationship between Fouling Organisms and the Content of Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid in Cultivated Pacific Oysters,Crassostrea gigas

Bivalves serve as an important aquaculture product, as they are the source of essential fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), in our diet. However, their cultivation in the wild can be affected by fouling organisms that, in turn, affect their EPA and DHA content. The effects of fouling organisms on the EPA and DHA contents of cultivated bivalves have not been well documented. We examined the effects of fouling organisms on the EPA and DHA contents and condition index of cultured oysters, Crassostrea gigas, in an aquaculture system. We sampled two-year-old oysters from five sites in Shizugawa Bay, Japan, in August 2014. Most of the fouling organisms were sponges, macroalgae, and Mytilus galloprovincialis. A significant negative relationship existed between the DHA content in C. gigas and the presence of sponges and macroalgae. A lower C. gigas EPA content corresponded to a higher M. galloprovincialis fouling mass and a lower C. gigas condition index. This can be explained by dietary competition between C. gigas and M. galloprovincialis for diatoms, which were the main producer of EPA in our study sites. Our findings indicate that fouling organisms likely reduce the EPA and DHA content in cultivated oysters. Therefore, our results suggest that the current efforts to remove fouling organisms from oyster clusters is an effective strategy to enhance the content of EPA and DHA in oysters.     

Effects of environmental factors and food availability in Northern Aegean sea on the cultivation of Mediterranean Mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis)

This study used two different collectors made of polypropylene (PP) rope and polyethylene (PE) fishing net to determine Mediterranean mussel's settlement, growth, condition index (CI), meat yield (MY) and shell thickness index (STI) during the period spent between June 2017 and November 2018. With this regard, chlorophyll a, water temperature, salinity, pH and particulate matter were defined through water samples that were collected on monthly basis triplicate. The mean chlorophyll a level was recorded as 0.32 ± 0.31 μg/L, while water temperature was 19.73 ± 5.14°C, salinity was 35 ± 2.070‰, pH was 8.12 ± 0.04, and TPM was 14.91 ± 10.48 mg/L. As a result of the cultivation period of 8 months spent following the first intense grip, the length of the mussels is measured as 31.79 ± 6.20 mm. Based on the Pearson correlation analysis results, the most important environmental parameter affecting Mediterranean mussels growth in length on PP rope collectors is the temperature (p < .05). The STI and CI were determined to be related with environmental temperature parameters, while no determinations could be obtained concerning the correlation of MY with environmental parameters. Assessment of Mediterranean mussels’ growth rate in PP rope collectors proved significant differences (p < .05) between March and November 2018. As no Mediterranean mussels are observed on PE fishing nets during the samplings performed throughout the study period, it is determined that PE fishing nets are not suitable collector types for Mediterranean mussel cultivation.
