Effects of dietary manganese sources and levels on growth performance,relative manganese bioavailability,antioxidant activities and tissue mineral content of juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum L)

This study was conducted to compare the effects of manganese sulphate (Mn‐S), glycine manganese(Mn‐Gly) and manganese 2‐hydroxy‐4‐(methylthio)butyrate (Mn‐HMB) on juvenile cobia, Rachycentron canadum L. Treatments consisted of 0, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 mg supplemental Mn kg^?1 from Mn‐S, Mn‐Gly or Mn‐MHB. Growth performance, manganese status, antioxidant activities and tissue mineral content were analysed after a 70‐day feeding period. Specific growth rate (SGR) increased with feeding 6.29 to 12.65 mg Mn kg^?1 diet from the Mn‐S or 6.86 to 12.39 mg Mn kg^?1 from the Mn‐Gly or 6.50 to 8.33 mg Mn kg^?1 from the Mn‐HMB and then plateaued above these levels. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) show decreasing first and then increased trend. Survival rate (SR) were not affected by the dietary treatments (P > 0.05). Fish fed diets supplemented with manganese at levels of 4–32 mg Mn kg^?1 had obviously higher hepatic Mn‐SOD activity (P < 0.05); on the contrary, hepatic has lower malondialdehyde (MDA) content (P < 0.05) than fish fed the basal diet. The manganese concentrations of whole body and vertebrae increased with increasing dietary Mn levels from 2–32 mg Mn kg^?1 (independent on manganese sources). Dietary Mn supplementation did not significantly influence the copper concentrations of whole body and vertebrae, the zinc concentrations of whole body and liver. Analysis by the broken‐line regression of SGR indicated that the optimal dietary Mn requirements in juvenile cobia were 15.42, 11.22 and 10.50 mg Mn kg^?1 diet from Mn‐S, Mn‐Gly or Mn‐HMB respectively.     

饲料中添加胆汁酸对军曹鱼生长及体组成的影响

在4组等氮等能的军曹鱼（Rachycentron canadum）实用饲料中分别添加不同梯度水平的胆汁酸（0,0.015%,0.030%和0.045%）,连续投喂初始体质量为（5.4±0.12）g的军曹鱼8周后,通过测定军曹鱼增重率（WGR,%）、特定生长率（SGR,%）和饲料系数（FCR）,并进行肝脏成分分析和血清分析,比较各组军曹鱼生长和体组成的影响。结果表明,添加水平为0.03%组的增重率高于对照组和0.015%添加组,饲料系数低于上述2组;军曹鱼血清胆固醇和肝脏脂肪的质量分数均与饲料中胆汁酸质量分数呈负相关;4组的成活率、特定生长率、全鱼和肌肉灰分、水分质量分数没有显著性差异。由此可见,饲料中添加胆汁酸能够促进军曹鱼的生长,并能降低脂肪在军曹鱼体内中的沉积。     

盐度变化对军曹鱼稚鱼相关免疫因子及其生长的影响

研究了盐度(5、10、20、30及对照37)对军曹鱼(Rachycentron canadum)稚鱼生长及其血清溶菌酶、碱性磷酸酶(ALP)、旁路途径补体(ACP)溶血活性(ACH50)和总免疫球蛋白(T-Ig)含量等免疫因子的影响。实验周期为14 d。结果表明,在逐渐达到设定盐度后养殖14 d,盐度30组稚鱼特定生长率(SGR)最高(5.77%/d),而盐度5和10组的SGR(分别为4.24%/d和4.38%/d)显著低于其他组(P<0.05)。在低盐度环境中血清溶菌酶活性在第7天各组都有不同程度升高,其中以盐度20组升高最为显著,其次为盐度10和30组,但第14天各组溶菌酶活性又都回落至对照组水平;而稚鱼在低盐度环境中血清ALP活性受到明显抑制,且活性与盐度呈一定正相关;各组间ACP活性在第7天各盐度组间无明显差异,但实验结束时盐度5和10两组出现显著升高;而T-Ig含量在盐度10组中始终明显高于其他组。研究显示,军曹鱼稚鱼在盐度20~37范围内都可正常生长,尽管稚鱼有较强的低盐度耐受能力,但过低盐度明显影响其生长率并导致体色变黑、蛀鳍和应激增强等异常表现。此外,盐度变化还影响稚鱼多种免疫相关因子。[中国水产科学,2007,14(1):120-125]     

Effect of dietary carbohydrate level on growth performance,body composition,apparent digestibility coefficient and digestive enzyme activities of juvenile cobia,Rachycentron canadum L

A 9‐week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary carbohydrate level on the growth performance, body composition and apparent digestibility coefficient and digestive enzyme activities of juvenile cobia. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets containing graded levels of starch (1.3%, 6.5%, 12.5%, 18.4%, 24.2% and 30.4%) were fed to juvenile cobia. Specific growth rate (SGR), feed efficiency ratio (FER) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) increased with increasing dietary starch up to 18.4% (P<0.05), and thereafter SGR declined but FER and PER remained nearly the same. Apparent digestibility coefficient of starch reduced significantly when dietary starch up to 30.4%. Fish fed the diets with starch from 18.4% to 30.4% showed higher amylase activities in intestinal tract than those fed diets containing starch 1.3% and 6.5% (P<0.05). Significantly higher whole‐body lipid contents were observed in fish fed the diets containing higher starch. Whole‐body moisture content was inversely correlated with whole‐body lipid content, while protein and ash showed no significant differences. Plasma glucose, hepatosomatic index, liver glycogen and liver lipid increased with an increasing dietary starch. Based on SGR and FER, the appropriate dietary starch supplementations of juvenile cobia were estimated to be 21.1% and 18.0 % of diet respectively.     

Effects of dietary probiotic on the growth performance,non‐specific immunity and disease resistance of cobia,Rachycentron canadum

The present study was performed to investigate the effects of a commercially available probiotic product (compound probiotic) containing Bacillus subtilis 7.0 × 10⁹ CFU g^?1, Bacillus licheniformis 3.0 × 10⁹ CFU g^?1, Lactobacillus spp. 5.0 × 10⁸ CFU g^?1 and Arthrobacter spp. 1.0 × 10⁸ CFU g^?1 on the growth performance, non‐specific immunity and protection against Vibrio harveyi infection in cobia (Rachycentron canadum). Fish were fed diets containing six graded levels of compound probiotic (0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 g kg^?1) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the survival rate ranged from 81.1% to 84.4% with no significant difference among dietary treatments (P > 0.05) after feeding experiment. Dietary compound probiotic significantly increased the specific growth rate (SGR), serum lysozyme, alternative complement pathway (ACP) activity, phagocytosis percentage (PP) and respiratory burst activity of head‐kidney macrophages of cobia. Moreover, feeding of supplemented diets containing compound probiotic resulted in significantly lower mortality against the pathogens Vibrio harveyi compared with the control group. To elevate the growth and immune resistance ability of cobia, an optimal dose of dietary compound probiotic administration determined by second‐order polynomial regression analysis was 3.3 g kg^?1, on the basis of the SGR and mortality after challenge with V. harveyi.     

军曹鱼稚鱼外周血细胞及其形态学观察

以出膜后第60天的军曹鱼外周血液为材料,利用光镜显微技术研究了其血细胞的种类和形态。外周血液包括5种类型的血细胞,红细胞、淋巴细胞、单核细胞、嗜中性粒细胞和血栓细胞。血细胞计数测得红细胞密度为(2.97±0.82)×109ind.mL-1,白细胞密度为(1.39±0.94)×106ind.mL-1,淋巴细胞、嗜中性粒细胞、单核细胞和血栓细胞在白细胞中所占的比例分别为(53.00±8.51)%、(17.59±4.28)%、(4.78±1.37)%和(24.63±4.08)%。未见到嗜酸性粒细胞和嗜碱性粒细胞。血细胞计数结果表明,红细胞数量远远大于白细胞,白细胞中淋巴细胞数量最多,单核细胞数量最少。实验还观察到处于分裂状态的红细胞、细胞表面有伪足样胞突的小淋巴细胞和细胞表面有许多微绒毛突起的大淋巴细胞、核呈多种形态的单核细胞和中性粒细胞及不同形态的血栓细胞等。     

Partial replacement of fishmeal by soybean meal in diets for juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum)

An 8‐week feeding experiment was conducted in floating cages (1.5 × 1.0 × 2.0 m) to determine the potential use of defatted soybean meal (roasted and solvent‐extracted) as a partial replacement of fishmeal in the isonitrogenous (approximately 450 g kg^?1 CP [crude protein]) diet for juvenile cobia with an initial average weight of about 8.3 g. Diets were formulated to include 0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 g kg^?1 (diets D0, D10, D20, D30, D40, D50 and D60, respectively) of fishmeal protein being substituted by defatted soybean meal without methionine supplementation. The results showed that weight gain rate decreased significantly when the replacement level of fishmeal protein was increased from 400 g kg^?1 to 500 g kg^?1, and the D60 diet was the lowest in all groups. These results indicate that up to 400 g kg^?1 of fishmeal protein can be replaced by defatted soybean meal without causing significant reduction in growth. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) were significantly affected by the replacement level of fishmeal protein being substituted by defatted soybean meal, when the replacement level of fishmeal protein was 200 g kg^?1 (diet, D20), FCR was the lowest and PER was the highest. There were no significant differences in the moisture, lipid, crude protein and ash content in whole body and muscle, while lipid content in liver increased as the dietary soybean meal replacement levels increased. There were significant differences in haemoglobin, haematocrit, red blood cell, plasma glucose and triglyceride concentration in fish fed diets with different soybean meal replacement levels. Results of this trial indicated that the optimum level of fishmeal protein replacement with defatted soybean meal, determined by quadratic regression analysis was 189.2 g kg^?1, on the basis of maximum weight gain.     

饲料中添加甜菜碱对军曹鱼生长、体营养成分和血清生化指标的影响

通过8周的养殖试验,评估了饲料中添加甜菜碱对军曹鱼（Rachycentron canadum）生长、体营养成分、血清生化指标和肝脏中酶活性的影响。共设计6种饲料,甜菜碱添加水平分别为0、0．05％、0．10％、0．20％、0．30％和0．40％。结果显示,添加水平为0．05％时增重率（WG）和特定生长率（SGR）最高,肝脏组织状况最好,全鱼和肌肉中蛋白质质量分数最高;添加水平超过0．20％时肥满度（cF）随甜菜碱添加量的上升而下降。各添加组的肝体比（HSI）均显著低于对照组且全鱼和肝脏中（0．10％添加组除外）的脂肪质量分数均低于对照组;血清指标中各添加组的血清甘油三酯（TG）浓度均高于对照组,但随着添加量的提高有先升后降的趋势;肝脏中谷丙转氨酶（GPT）的活性显著低于对照组。由此可见,饲料中添加适量的甜菜碱可以促进军曹鱼的生长,具有一定的降脂作用,利于脂肪代谢。     

Effects of shrimp waste meal on growth performance and chitinase activity in juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum)

The effects of replacing fish meal (FM) with shrimp waste meal (SWM) in diets fed to juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum) were investigated through a 6‐week trial. SWM was added to replace FM at fractions of 0%, 10%, 20% and 25% of the diet. The result showed the survival rates of the fish were higher than 86.7%. The weight gain and feed conversion rate showed an increasing trend as the SWM proportion in diet increased from 0% to 25%, but the protein efficiency ratio showed a decreasing trend in efficiency. In addition, the hepatosomatic index increased significantly when the SWM percentage was 20% and 25%. There were no significant differences in the protein and ash concentration of the muscle among all dietary groups. However, the muscle lipid content was low when fish fed in diets with high SWM level. Chitinase activity was extremely high in the pyloric caeca tissue of cobia, and increased specific activities of chitinase were only found in the foregut of cobia fed diets containing 10% SWM for a 6‐week period. A challenge test showed that SWM could not enhance cobia resistance to Photobacterium damselae ssp. piscicida infection. Our results suggest that the administration of a 10% SWM diet could potentially reduce the use of FM in the diet of cobia.     

微胶囊蛋氨酸或晶体蛋氨酸对军曹鱼幼鱼相关酶活性的影响

比较研究了低鱼粉饲料中添加微胶囊蛋氨酸或晶体蛋氨酸对军曹鱼(Rachycentron canadum),消化酶和蛋白质代谢酶活性的影响.将鱼粉组和减少鱼粉后蛋氨酸缺乏组分别设为正、负对照组,试验组饲料在负对照组的基础上分别添加晶体蛋氨酸(MET)、羟基蛋氨酸(MHA)、邻苯二甲酸醋酸纤维素微胶囊蛋氨酸(CAP)、丙烯酸树脂微胶囊蛋氨酸(RES)和棕榈酸甘油酯微胶囊蛋氨酸(TPA),共7组等氮等脂饲料.每个处理设3个重复,每个重复放养20尾鱼,初始体质量(5.40±0.07)g,流水养殖8周,水温29～31℃.结果显示微胶囊蛋氨酸组的军曹鱼肠道胰蛋白酶活性显著高于正对照组和MET组(P＜0.05),MET和TPA组肝脏谷草转氨酶(GOT)活性显著高于正负对照组(P＜0.05);MET组军曹鱼幼鱼摄食后0.5 h肠道Na+、K+-ATP酶活性显著高于其他各组(P＜0.05),摄食3 h后正对照组和RES组Na+、K+-ATP酶活性上升,显著高于CAP和MHA组(P＜0.05),摄食8 h后正对照组和微胶囊蛋氨酸组显著高于MHA和MET组(P＜0.05).以上结果表明,军曹鱼低鱼粉饲料中添加晶体蛋氨酸即可增进氨基酸的代谢和蛋白质的合成,微胶囊有助于蛋氨酸在肠道中的缓慢释放,提高肠道内胰蛋白酶活性.     

Imbalanced lysine to arginine ratios reduced performance in juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fed high plant protein diets

Cobia (8.4 ± 0.1 g body weight) were fed to satiation with three test diets of high plant protein‐based ingredients and different lysine to arginine ratios, and one commercial diet (currently used for cobia rearing in Vietnam as a control for growth) for 6 weeks. The test diets contained 206 g marine ingredients kg^?1, including fishmeal, krill meal and fish protein concentrate (in order of high to low inclusion), while the rest of the dietary protein was a blend of soya and pea protein concentrate, wheat protein and sunflower meal. Crystalline lysine and arginine were added in the test diets to produce either a balanced lysine to arginine ratio (BL/A; 1.1) and a high or low lysine to arginine ratio (HL/A; 1.8 and LL/A; 0.8, respectively). There were no significant differences in final body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio or protein gain between cobia fed BL/A‐ and commercial control diet (CCT). Cobia fed BL/A diet performed better than fish fed either HL/A‐ or LL/A diet. This was partly due to a higher feed intake and protein and lipid gain in cobia fed BL/A diet as compared to HL/A‐ and LL/A diet.     

军曹鱼养殖水体及其肠道弧菌的耐药性研究

选用常用的10种抗生素,通过纸片扩散法(Kirby-Bauer纸片扩散法,简称K-B法),参照NCCLS抗生素敏感试验操作标准,并以金黄色葡萄球菌Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923和大肠埃希菌Esсheriсhia coliATCC25922为质控菌株,对周年监测分离自养殖军曹鱼水体及肠道的41株优势弧菌(水体菌18株,肠道菌23株)进行了药物敏感性研究。结果显示,抑制弧菌效果最好的药物是氯霉素(100%敏感)、庆大霉素(水体菌100%敏感,肠道菌敏感率超过90%),其次是诺氟沙星、复方新诺明和多粘菌素B。青霉素类抑菌效果则较差,如试验肠道弧菌对青霉素G的耐药率超过78%,对氨苄青霉素的耐药率超过60%。不同来源(即分别来自养殖水体和鱼肠道)的弧菌菌株对同种抗生素的敏感情况存在一定程度的差异。     

Effects of dietary starches and the protein to energy ratio on growth and feed efficiency of juvenile cobia,Rachycentron canadum

Optimization of the protein to energy ratio in juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum) would allow the production of diets that maximize growth without the addition of excess energy that may increase costs or even be detrimental to the health of the fish. During a 6‐week growth trial, juvenile cobia (5.6 ± 0.5 g fish^?1 initial weight) were fed five isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets containing various protein to energy ratios using starch as the energy source. At the end of the trial, some fish were analysed for body composition characteristics while the rest were used to examine the excretion of dietary starch in the feces. Survival and growth were not significantly affected, but feed efficiency (ranging from 0.64 to 0.94) and daily consumption (ranging from 45.3 to 64.1 g kg^?1 of body weight d^?1) were affected. No reduction in consumption due to excess energy was noted. Analysis of the fecal carbohydrate data showed a linear relationship between dietary inclusion and excretion of carbohydrates with no sign of reaching saturation. Results of this study suggest that cobia can utilize dietary carbohydrates up to at least 340 g kg^?1 of dry diet with an optimal protein to energy ratio of approximately 34 mg protein kJ^?1metabolizable energy.     

Growth and intestinal morphology in cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fed extruded diets with two types of soybean meal partly replacing fish meal

Juvenile cobias, Rachycentron canadum, were fed extruded diets containing toasted defatted soybean meal (SBM) or untoasted defatted SBM [white flakes (WF)] to study growth and feed conversion, and to study if SBM induces morphological changes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Three diets were produced: a fish meal‐based control diet (FM diet) with 558 g FM kg^?1, and two diets with 335 g FM and either 285 g SBM kg^?1 (SBM diet) or 285 g WF kg^?1 (WF diet). The diets were extruded at approximately 120°C with 280 g kg^?1 moisture. Triplicate groups of cobias (mean weight: 25.9 g) were fed the diets during 6 weeks. Feed intake of the FM and SBM diets were not significantly different, whereas the cumulative feed intake of cobias fed the WF diet was lower (P < 0.05) than that of cobias fed the FM and SBM diets after the first 21‐day period. Specific growth rate and feed conversion ratio were not significantly different between cobias fed the FM and SBM diets, but significantly poorer results were obtained in cobias fed the WF diet. No morphological differences in the GI tract could be attributed to the diets, and cobias fed soy did not develop enteritis in the distal intestine.     

不同饲料对军曹鱼组织消化酶活力的影响

比较研究了投喂冰鲜鱼和人工配合饲料的军曹鱼胃、前肠以及肝脏消化酶(蛋白酶、胰蛋白酶、淀粉酶和脂肪酶)活力.试验结果表明,(1)蛋白酶活力:前肠与肝脏的蛋白酶比活力,投喂配合饲料组显著高于冰鲜鱼组(P<0.05),而胃中的蛋白酶比活力以冰鲜鱼组显著高于配合饲料组(P<0.05);(2)胰蛋白酶活力:胃中胰蛋白酶比活力,冰鲜鱼组显著高于配合饲料组(P<0.05),前肠与肝脏的胰蛋白酶比活力配合饲料显著高于冰鲜鱼组(P<0.05);(3)淀粉酶活力:胃中的淀粉酶比活力,冰鲜鱼组显著高于配合饲料组(P <0.05),前肠的淀粉酶比活力则是配合饲料组显著高于冰鲜鱼组(P<0.05),两种饲料对军曹鱼肝脏淀粉酶比活力影响不显著(P>0.05);(4)脂肪酶活力:胃及前肠的脂肪酶比活力两种饲料间差异不显著(P>0.05),但肝脏的脂肪酶比活力则以配合饲料组显著高于冰鲜鱼组(P<0.05).     

Effects of dietary immunostimulant combination on the growth performance,non‐specific immunity and disease resistance of cobia,Rachycentron canadum (Linnaeus)

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of the immunostimulant combination (IC) containing β‐glucan, A3α‐peptidoglycan, vitamin C and vitamin E on the growth performance, non‐specific immunity and protection against Vibrio harveyi infection in cobia (Rachycentron canadum). Fish were fed diets containing six graded levels of IC (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 g kg^?1 diet) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the survival rate ranged from 81.1 to 84.4% with no significant difference among all the groups (P > 0.05) after the feeding experiment. Dietary IC significantly increased the specific growth rate (SGR), serum lysozyme, alternative complement pathway (ACH50) activity, phagocytosis percentage (PP) and respiratory burst activity of head kidney macrophages of cobia. Moreover, feeding of supplemented diets containing 3.0 g kg^?1 IC resulted in significantly lower mortality against the pathogens, V. harveyi compared with the control group. To elevate the growth and immune resistance ability of cobia, the optimal dose of dietary IC administration, determined by second‐order polynomial regression analysis was 3.43 and 2.71 g kg^?1 diet, respectively, on the basis of the SGR and mortality after challenge with V. harveyi.     

Evaluation of iron methionine and iron sulphate as dietary iron sources for juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum)

An 8‐week experiment was designed to determine the optimum dietary iron requirement of juvenile cobia Rachycentron canadum (mean initial weight, 15.89 ± 0.84 g) with iron sulphate (FeSO₄•7H₂O) and iron methionine (FeMet) as iron sources, using a semi‐purified diet based on casein and white fish meal as the protein sources. The basal diet was supplemented with 0, 30, 60, 120, 240 and 480 mg iron kg⁻¹ dry diet from either FeSO₄ or FeMet, respectively. Survival was not significantly affected by the all dietary treatment. Weight gain (WG), feed efficiency (FE), serum catalase activity (SCAT), and haemoglobin were significantly affected by any of the dietary treatments from both of two iron sources. Based on broken‐line regression analysis of WG, FE and SCAT, a minimum requirement for dietary iron was recommended to be 80.5–94.7 mg kg⁻¹ from FeSO₄ and 71.3–75.1 mg kg⁻¹ from FeMet. Iron supplement to the basal diet had no significant effect on haematocrit, erythrocyte count, iron concentration in whole body and fillet. Our experiment also showed that the bioavailability of FeMet and FeSO₄ to juvenile cobia was similar for WG and FE, and the relative bioavailability of FeMet and FeSO₄ to juvenile cobia was 275% for maximum SCAT.     

Effects on digestibility and growth of juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fed fish or crab silage protein

The study was conducted in Cam Ranh, Vietnam, in 1000‐L tanks supplied with recirculated and biofiltered saltwater (33‰ and 28.4 °C) to evaluate the potential use of lizard fish (Saurida undosquamis) or blue crab (Portunus pelagicus) acid silage protein for juvenile cobia (23–25 g). Six isoenergetic test moist diets (4915–5125 kcal kg^?1), using either raw fish diet, fish silage diet (FSD), raw crab diet, crab silage diet (CSD), mixed raw fish/raw crab diet or mixed fish/crab silage diet (MSD), as part of the protein sources in the steam‐cooked diets, were fed to satiety to triplicate groups of 20 fish each for a 6‐week growth trial. Y₂O₃ was added as an inert indicator to determine the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) for macro nutrients and gross energy. Weight gain (185–286%) and specific daily growth rate (2.5–3.2% per day) were significantly higher in cobia fed the raw‐based diets and FSD than in fish fed CSD and MSD (34–90 and 0.7–1.5% per day). Feed conversion ratios (FCR) were significantly higher in the groups fed CSD and MSD diets (2.1–6.5) than the groups fed the other diets (1.0–1.2), resulting in significantly lower protein productive values (0.1–0.2) in the groups fed CSD and MSD than in the other groups (0.3–0.4). The FCR results were confirmed by significantly lower ADC values in fish fed CSD and MSD than those in fish fed the other diets. We thus conclude that the present raw‐based diets were better utilized by juvenile cobia than silage‐based diets, particularly the diet made from crab silage.     

军曹鱼全基因组微卫星特征分析与多态性标记的筛选及应用

为更好地开发军曹鱼(Rachycentron canadum)高多态性微卫星分子标记,本研究基于军曹鱼全基因组测序结果,利用MISA1.0软件对其简单重复序列(simple sequence repeat, SSR)的位点信息进行检索及分析。结果显示,基因组中共筛选出1~6个核苷酸为重复单元的SSR位点344 820个,其中,以单核苷酸重复序列最多(174 146个),占SSR总数的50.50%;其次为二核苷酸重复和三核苷酸重复序列,分别占SSR总数的30.23%和14.02%。在SSR包含的重复单元中,单核苷酸重复以A/T类型为主,AC/GT是二核苷酸的优势重复单元类型。军曹鱼基因组SSR核心序列重复次数在4~275次范围内波动,单核苷酸SSR重复数为10的最多,二核苷酸SSR重复次数为6的最多。本研究设置长度≥12 bp为筛选高多态性SSR位点的标准,共获得361 684个位点。在上述位点中随机选取100个候选位点进行基因分型检测,利用从中筛选到多态性较高的10个SSR标记分别对北海、陵水、硇洲、徐闻和三亚5个养殖群体进行遗传多样性分析,145尾个体中共检测到69个等位基因,观测杂合度(Ho)、期望杂合度(He)和多态信息含量(PIC)平均值分别为0.628、0.706和0.653。相关研究表明,军曹鱼基因组中SSR位点类型较为丰富、多态性潜能较高,从中筛选获得的多态性SSR标记可为军曹鱼分子标记辅助育种、群体遗传多样性评价等研究提供有力支持。     

The effect of different levels of dietary phospholipid on growth, survival and nutrient composition of early juvenile cobia (Rachycentron canadum)

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of dietary phospholipid (PL) on growth, survival and nutrient composition of 25 days posthatch cobia Rachycentron canadum (0.4 g initial wet weight). For 42 days, fish were fed fish meal and protein hydrolysate based diets containing four PL levels (0, 20, 40 and 80 g kg^?1dry matter: purity 97%) and phosphatidylcholine purity was 60%. All diets were isonitrogenous and isolipidic by regulating the fish oil and maize oil levels. Weight gain (2601–10892%), specific growth ratio (7.82–11.18) and survival (49–100) were significantly affected by dietary PL. Intraperitoneal fat ratio (0.19–0.74) and hepatosomatic index (2.67–3.08) increased with dietary PL level. The effect of dietary PL levels on the chemical composition of tissues was significant only for whole body and liver. The contents of plasma total cholesterol (2.47–3.77 mmol L^?1) and PL (1.03–2.97 mmol L^?1) increased with an increase in dietary PL. In conclusion, in our study survival and growth continued to increase even at the highest PL levels used (80 g kg^?1); therefore optimal dietary PL levels may well exceed 80 g kg^?1 for early juvenile cobia requirement. It also indicated from the experiment that PL could affect lipid deposition and resulted in a higher lipid level in fish tissue.
