Juvenile Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, that had been fed rotifers as larvae (R group) had significantly lower growth rates (SGR) at high-ambient ammonia (UIA?=?115?C120???g?l?1) than did juveniles that had been first fed with natural zooplankton (Z group). Overall specific growth rates (SGRs) were 5?C11% higher in the Z group at the control ammonia (UIA?=?1?C2???g?l?1) treatments. An interaction between larval rearing history, oxygen and ammonia levels was found, as SGR decreased with decreasing oxygen levels at high ammonia in the R group, while the SGR in the Z group were less affected by hypoxia. At high-ambient ammonia, the SGRs were 5% (mild hyperoxia, 101?C104% O2 in effluent water), 28% (normoxia, 83?C88% O2 in effluent water) and 86% (hypoxia, 57?C69% O2 in effluent water) higher in the Z group, compared to the R group. The present findings indicate that larval rearing environment could influence the adaptability to environmental changes and growth performance during later juvenile stage in cod. These findings have implications for the optimization of Atlantic cod culture. 相似文献

Prion diseases such as scrapie in small ruminants, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in man, are fatal neurodegenerative disorders. These diseases result from the accumulation of misfolded conformers of the host-encoded prion protein (PrP) in the central nervous system. To date naturally-occurring PrP free animals have not been reported. Here we describe healthy non-transgenic animals, Norwegian Dairy Goats, lacking prion protein due to a nonsense mutation early in the gene. These animals are predicted to be resistant to prion disease and will be valuable for research and for production of prion-free products. 相似文献

Summary Perennial grasses are vital for Norwegian agricultural production. The nature and extent of winter damage on grasslands is highly dependent on climatic conditions, and determines both persistency and yield. Physical stresses such as frost and ice encasement predominate in coastal regions with an unstable winter climate, while biotic stresses such as low temperature fungi are more common in the inland regions. Development of hardening depends on plant adaptation and climatic conditions during autumn and winter. New winter-hardy cultivars should be bred for wide adaptation to winter stresses. The genetic background for the most important character, freezing tolerance, seems to be of polygenic nature with mainly additive gene action. Selection for increased freezing tolerance has been effective over generations in grasses, and in most grass species ample variation still exists to be exploited by breeding. However, in some species like perennial ryegrass, modern biotechnological methods should be used to improve freezing tolerance and winter hardiness. 相似文献

The present paper describes the growth properties of juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) reared at 7, 10, 13 and 16 °C, and a group reared under “temperature steps” i.e. with temperature reduced successively from
16 to 13 and 10 °C. Growth rate and feed conversion efficiency of juvenile Atlantic cod were significantly influenced by the
interaction of temperature and fish size. Overall growth was highest in the 13 °C and the T-step groups but for different
reasons, as the fish at 13 °C had 10% higher overall feeding intake compared to the T-step group, whereas the T-step had 8%
higher feeding efficiency. After termination of the laboratory study the fish were reared in sea pens at ambient conditions
for 17 months. The groups performed differently when reared at ambient conditions in the sea as the T-step group was 11.6,
11.5, 5.3 and 7.5% larger than 7, 10, 13 and 16 °C, respectively in June 2005. Optimal temperature for growth and feed conversion
efficiency decreased with size, indicating an ontogenetic reduction in optimum temperature for growth with increasing size.
The results suggest an optimum temperature for growth of juvenile Atlantic cod in the size range 5–50 g dropping from 14.7 °C
for 5–10 g juvenile to 12.4 °C for 40–50 g juvenile. Moreover, a broader parabolic regression curve between growth, feed conversion
efficiency and temperature as size increases, indicate increased temperature tolerance with size. The study confirms that
juvenile cod exhibits ontogenetic variation in temperature optimum, which might partly explain different spatial distribution
of juvenile and adult cod in ocean waters. Our study also indicates a physiological mechanism that might be linked to cod
migrations as cod may maximize their feeding efficiency by active thermoregulation. 相似文献

Growth, feed conversion efficiency and frequencies of skeletal deformities were studied in juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) that had been startfed on either rotifers (rotifer group) or zooplankton (zooplankton group). After metamorphosis, the fish were reared at four constant temperatures (7, 10, 13, 16°C) or moved successively from 16 to 13 and 10°C (T‐step, average 13.2°C). The zooplankton group had a consistently higher growth rate at all the temperatures studied. Further, the zooplankton group had higher food intake (20%) and higher feed conversion ratio (1.65 vs. 1.31). In addition, a significantly higher incidence of skeletal deformities was found in the rotifer group (14.2%) compared with the zooplankton group (4.1%). After termination of the laboratory study, the fish were reared in sea pens under ambient conditions for 17 months. Final weights of the zooplankton group were consistently larger (between 12% and 14% larger depending on original temperature groups). To verify the growth results, we conducted a follow‐up study where a single egg group was divided into two parts and fed either on rotifers or zooplankton. This study indicated similar growth differences as found in the first study. Overall, our data suggest that different startfeeding diets may be important for long‐term growth, incidence of deformities and quality of juvenile cod. The use of zooplankton can greatly improve long‐term growth and quality of cod juveniles. The study also highlights the advantage of using elevated temperatures in the juvenile phase as this will lead to significantly higher final weights in the adult stage. 相似文献

Natural killer (NK) cells are important for immune protection of the gut mucosa. Previous studies have shown that under pathologic conditions NK cells, T cells and dendritic cells are found co-localised in secondary lymphoid organs where their interaction coordinates immune responses. However, in the gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALTs), there are few detailed reports on the distribution of NK cells. Sheep harbour several types of organised lymphoid tissues in the gut that have different functions. The ileal Peyer’s patch (IPP) functions as a primary lymphoid tissue for B cell generation, while the jejunal Peyer’s patches (JPPs) and colon patches (CPs) are considered secondary lymphoid tissues. In the present study, we analysed tissues from healthy lambs by flow cytometry and in situ multicolour immunofluorescence, using recently described NCR1 antibodies to identify ovine NK cells. Most NCR1+ cells isolated from all tissues were negative for the pan T cell marker CD3, and thus comply with the general definition of NK cells. The majority of NCR1+ cells in blood as well as secondary lymphoid organs expressed CD16, but in the GALT around half of the NCR1+ cells were negative for CD16. A semi-quantitative morphometric study on tissue sections was used to compare the density of NK cells in four compartments of the IPPs, JPP and CPs. NCR1+ cells were found in all gut segments. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between compartments of the primary lymphoid organ IPP and the secondary lymphoid organs of the JPPs and CP. NK cells co-localised and made close contact with T cells, dendritic cells and other NK cells, but did not show signs of proliferation. We conclude that NK cells are present in all investigated segments of the sheep gut, but that presence of other innate lymphoid cells expressing NCR1 cannot be excluded. 相似文献

Abstract Development of cold tolerance in white clover (Trifolium repens L.) genotypes originating from various parts of Norway and grown outdoors at Tromso, latitude 69°39′N, has been studied. Stolon samples for an artificial freezing test and for chemical analysis were collected three times during the autumn. Generally, the most northern genotypes were more cold tolerant than the southern ones. Cold tolerance increased significantly from September to November in all genotypes. Content of dry matter, soluble carbohydrates, sucrose and proline in stolons increased during the hardening process. These changes were similar in both northern and southern genotypes of white clover. 相似文献

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is the fifth most important crop in the developing countries after rice, wheat, maize and cassava. The amplified fragment
length polymorphism (AFLP) method was used to study the genetic diversity and relationships of sweet potato accessions in
the germplasm collection of Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro and Sugarcane Research Institute, Kibaha, Tanzania.
AFLP analysis of 97 sweet potato accessions using ten primer combinations gave a total of 202 clear polymorphic bands. Each
one of the 97 sweet potato accessions could be distinguished based on these primer combinations. Estimates of genetic similarities
were obtained by the Dice coefficient, and a final dendrogram was constructed with the un-weight pair-group method using arithmetic
average. AFLP-based genetic similarity varied from 0.388 to 0.941, with a mean of 0.709. Cluster analysis using genetic similarity
divided the accessions into two main groups suggesting that there are genetic relationships among the accessions. Principal
Coordinate analysis confirmed the pattern of the cluster analysis. Analysis of molecular variance revealed greater variation
within regions (96.19%) than among regions (3.81%). The results from the AFLP analysis revealed a relatively low genetic diversity
among the germplasm accessions and the genetic distances between regions were low. A maximally diverse subset of 13 accessions
capturing 97% of the molecular markers diversity was identified. We were able to detect duplicates accessions in the germplasm
collection using the highly polymorphic markers obtained by AFLP, which were found to be an efficient tool to characterize
the genetic diversity and relationships of sweet potato accessions in the germplasm collection in Tanzania. 相似文献

You are what you eat? Differences in lipid composition of cod larvae reared on natural zooplankton and enriched rotifers 下载免费PDF全文

A laboratory experiment with larval cod fed natural zooplankton and enriched rotifers was carried out to investigate the effects of feed type on fatty acid (FA) and lipid composition. A divergence in FA composition was observed within a week of feeding on respective diets, and subsequent transfers of larvae from one feeding regime to the other also confirmed a rapid change in FA composition towards that of the newly provided feed source. The rapid change in FA composition after switching diet is in part expected to be due to the high growth and tissue turnover of cod larvae during the early life stages and provides an opportunity to assess recent feeding history by means of FA analysis. The FA contents also varied between the main analysed lipid classes, with relatively higher eicosapentaenoic acid levels in neutral lipids than in polar lipid classes. Although zooplankton contained notably more polar lipids and less neutral lipids than enriched rotifers, the relative amounts of polar and neutral lipids in larvae from respective prey groups were similar, signifying that the larval composition only partly reflects what they have been eating. Still, the FA composition of the previous diet was still discernible in larvae after 1–2 weeks of transfer to a new diet or after weaning to a formulated feed. The potential long‐term effects of these nutritional differences are discussed. 相似文献
