Abstract: | Total lipid content and total lipid fatty acid compositions were studied in larvae at the yolksac stage of gilthead sea bream
from two different broodstocks. The two broodstock diets had the same total lipid content but were different with respect
to their fatty acid levels.
There were differences in the fatty acid composition of total lipids in the two groups of larvae, reflecting the influence
of fatty acid levels in the diets fed to the broodstock. The main fatty acids in both larvae lots during yolksac stage were
16:0, 18:1n-9 and 22:6n-3.
The desaturation index Δx = P + Σ (n − x) − Σ (n − x) diet]/P allowed the determination of the relative importance of the
Δ9, Δ6, Δ5 and Δ4 desaturations during the egg and larval yolksac stages.
The levels of total lipid fatty acids in eggs and larvae during yolksac period were almost constant and very low desaturation
and elongation activities were apparent.
A competitive inhibition was observed between the fatty acids of the n-6 series with respect to the ones of the n-3 series
in those eggs and larvae from broodstock whose diet contained a high proportion of linoleic acid and its derivatives. |
