The advantages of Ulva (Chlorophyta) as an additive in sea urchin formulated feeds: effects on palatability,consumption and digestibility 下载免费PDF全文
The present study was performed to determine whether the palatability, consumption and digestibility of an artificial sea urchin diet could be improved by the addition of a highly preferred seaweed. Four species of macroalgae (Ulva rigida, Ecklonia maxima, Porphyra capensis and Gigartina polycarpa) were assessed by pairwise preference tests. Each macroalgal species was consumed at least once by Tripneustes gratilla and significant preferences always involved Ulva as the most preferred species. Four protein‐rich artificial diets supplemented with varying amounts of Ulva [0, 50, 150 and 200 g kg?1 designated 0, 5, 15 and 20U, respectively] were then developed and fed to urchins over a 20‐day period. Inclusion of 200 g kg?1 dried Ulva significantly improved the palatability of the artificial diet and mean dry feed consumption rates were higher in urchins fed the 20U and 15U diets compared with urchins fed diets with a lower Ulva content. Daily digestible protein (DP) intake also differed significantly, with urchins fed the 20U diet having a significantly higher DP intake compared with the 15U, 5U and 0U treatments. These results indicate that inclusion of the palatable seaweed Ulva acted as a feeding stimulant, increasing the acceptability of the diets and boosting protein intake. 相似文献

Isostichopus badionotus is a new commercially important sea cucumber in the Caribbean that has rapidly shown signs of overexploitation. There is no information on the growth and survival rates for wild or hatchery‐produced early juveniles. Hatchery production and determination of juvenile growth rates are essential for future aquaculture efforts for this species. In this study, daily growth rate (GR), specific growth rate (SGR), weight gain (WG), survival rate (SR), and weight–length relation (WLR) were evaluated using small (0.01 g) and large (0.25 g) hatchery‐produced early juveniles under laboratory conditions. Growth was rapid compared to other cultured sea cucumber species; maximal values of SGR and WG were obtained for small juveniles (4.58%/day and 2,191%, respectively), while maximal GR and SR were obtained for large juveniles (0.29 mm/day and 99.17%, respectively). A wide range of sizes was evident at the end of each trial. The WLR of small and large juveniles fit with a negative allometric growth trend. This study highlights the potential production of I. badionotus as early juvenile stages withstand hatchery handling well and exhibit a high SR, reaching commonly released mean sizes (>0.7 g and 25 mm) after almost 3 months (120 days postfertilization). 相似文献

A 90‐day feeding trial was carried out to examine the influence of fish oil (FO) substitution with blends of vegetable oils (VOs) on reproductive efficiency of female brooders and fluctuation in fatty acid (FA) profile of embryos in Oncorhynchus mykiss. A basal diet was formulated in which 20% (80FO/20VO), 50% (50FO/50VO), 75% (25FO/75VO) and 100% (100VO) of FO were replaced by mixture of VO. Reproductive performance of brooders was not affected by drastic alternations in FA profile of diets. The level of saturated and monounsaturated FAs (MUFAs) significantly increased, whereas the levels of long‐chain polyunsaturated FAs (LC‐PUFAs), mainly docosahexaenoic acid, profoundly decreased during embryogenesis. The concentrations of MUFA and n?6 PUFA increased in the eggs with increasing the incorporation of VO mixture in diets; however, the concentration of LC‐PUFA and n?3/n?6 PUFA ratio decreased. Haematological parameters and humoral immune responses including total immunoglobulin content, lysozyme and alternative complement pathway activities in brooders fed with the experimental diets did not statically different. In summary, incorporating mixture of various VO sources especially linseed and sunflower oils as good sources of α‐linolenic and linoleic acids, respectively, along with low levels of residual fat from fish meal in diet suggested a good strategy for providing the appropriate essential FA requirements of O. mykiss brooders for their successful reproduction. 相似文献
