Reproductive characteristics and variations in the biochemical composition of Neptunea arthritica cumingii crosse through embryonic development

The copulation, egg laying, embryonic development and changes in amino acids and fatty acids in Neptunea arthritica cumingii during embryogenesis were studied to understand the embryo development process and nutritional requirements in the early life phase. The results showed that N. arthritica cumingii has direct development within the egg capsule and the development of embryos was classified into five stages: cleavage, egg swallowing, protoconch forming, shell development and juvenile. Embryos develop through the provision of nurse eggs as an extra‐embryonic source of nutrition. As development continued, the body of the embryo began to coil. After about 70–80 days, young N.arthritica cumingii started to emerge through a hole underneath the capsule. Biochemical results showed that the total amount of amino acids showed a decreasing trend as embryonic development progressed. The content of all nine essential amino acids decreased significantly from the egg‐swallowing stage to the post‐larva stage (p < .05). Concentrations of five of the seven nonessential amino acids also showed a decreasing trend from the egg‐swallowing stage to the post‐larva stage; the exceptions were Ala and Gly. Gly is the only amino acid that consistently increased in concentration during the development process. Most fatty acids increased after the eggs hatched, except for C20:1, C20:2, C22:5 and C22:6 (docosahexaenoic acid, DHA). The data in this study may provide a starting point for the formulation of well‐balanced early‐stage larval diets, although N.arthritica cumingii is still in the exploration stage.

牡蛎壳粉对水体中低浓度重金属离子的吸附性能研究

为研究牡蛎壳粉对水体中常见重金属离子的吸附性能,实验中分别探讨了牡蛎壳粉在不同添加量、重金属离子浓度、吸附温度、酸碱环境、吸附时间下对水体中Cu2+、Zn2、pb2、Cd2+、Cr(Ⅵ)的吸附情况;并进行牡蛎壳粉吸附动力学、热力学实验研究和SEM图谱分析.结果显示,牡蛎壳粉的最适宜吸附条件为常温下,添加量1 g/L,溶液初始pH值为5.5,吸附时间为24h,此时其对水体中浓度分别为1mg/L的Cu2+、Zn2+、pb2、Cd2+、Cr(Ⅵ)等5种重金属离子的去除率分别为84.96％、76.77％、78.57％、51.99％和41.39％,且随着溶液初始浓度的上升,牡蛎壳粉对5种重金属离子的吸附量呈上升趋势,饱和吸附量分别为9.43、9.65、9.03、4.67、1.83 mg/g;牡蛎壳粉对5种重金属离子的吸附符合准二级动力学方程和Langmuir等温模型;SEM图谱表明吸附Cu2、Zn2、pb2的牡蛎壳粉表面均有二次固体生成,吸附Cd2、Cr(Ⅵ)的牡蛎壳粉表面无明显现象.

对来自40个家系的753尾大菱鲆个体进行耐高温实验,测定其生长和耐高温性状.基于是否考虑全同胞家系效应,建立了两种动物模型,用于估算大菱鲆生长和耐高温性状的遗传参数.利用WOMBAT程序采用平均信息约束极大似然法估计各模型中性状的方差组分,用似然比检验法进行不同模型的差异检验.方差组分分析结果显示,估计体质量遗传参数时,采用模型Ⅰ效果较好,相应遗传力为(0.22±0.09);估计肥满度时,两模型间差异不显著,其遗传力范围为(0.21±0.18)～(0.39±0.11);估计耐热性时,采用模型Ⅰ比较理想,遗传力为(0.026±0.034).表型和遗传相关分析结果表明,体质量与肥满度、耐热性的表型相关系数分别为0.13和0.04,肥满度与耐热性的表型相关系数为0.13;体质量与肥满度、耐热性遗传相关系数分别为0.01和-1.00,肥满度与耐热性的遗传相关系数为0.05.研究结果表明,没有考虑全同胞家系效应的模型Ⅰ是估计大菱鲆生长和耐高温性状遗传参数的较好模型.     

转Hu-IFN-α基因草鱼雌核发育F1的遗传配型分析

1998年,张学文等[1]通过分子重组,将人α干扰素(Hu-IFNα)基因编码序列克隆到鲤β肌动蛋白基因启动子下游,构建了能够在鱼体内表达的Hu-IFN-α基因重组分子,然后通过显微注射法将重组基因注射入草鱼1～2细胞期的受精卵内,获得转抗病基因草鱼.此后,该项目研究小组开展了一系列研究[2-6],对转Hu-IFN-α基因草鱼接种草鱼出血病病毒(GCRV991)的攻毒实验表明:转Hu-IFN-α基因草鱼对草鱼出血病病毒的抗性比普通草鱼提高了66%.但是,目前的转基因技术还无法使外源基因在鱼体内进行定点整合,目的基因在鱼体内的整合形式难以确定.     

Effect of dietary protein reduction with lysine and methionnine supplementation on growth performance,body composition and total ammonia nitrogen excretion of juvenile grass carp,Ctenopharyngodon idella

A 63‐day growth trial was undertaken to estimate the effects of supplemented lysine and methionine with different dietary protein levels on growth performance and feed utilization in Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). Six plant‐based practical diets were prepared, and 32CP, 30CP and 28CP diets were formulated to contain 320 g kg^?1, 300 g kg^?1 and 280 g kg^?1 crude protein without lysine and methionine supplementation. In the supplementary group, lysine and methionine were added to formulate 32AA, 30AA and 28AA diets with 320 g kg^?1, 300 g kg^?1 and 280 g kg^?1 dietary crude protein, respectively, according to the whole body amino acid composition of Grass Carp. In the groups without lysine and methionine supplementation, weight gain (WG, %) and specific growth rate (SGR, % day^?1) of the fish fed 32CP diet were significantly higher than that of fish fed 30CP and 28CP diets, but no significant differences were found between 30CP‐ and 28CP‐diet treatments. WG and SGR of the fish fed 32AA and 30AA diets were significantly higher than that of fish fed 28AA diets, and the performance of grass carp was also significantly improved when fed diets with lysine and methionine supplementation (P < 0.05), and the interaction between dietary protein level and amino acid supplementation was noted between WG and SGR (P < 0.05). Feed intake (FI) was significantly increased with the increase in dietary protein level and the supplementation of lysine and methionine (P < 0.05), but feed conversion ratio (FCR) showed a significant decreasing trend (P < 0.05). Two days after total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) concentration test, the values of TAN discharged by the fish 8 h after feeding were 207.1, 187.5, 170.6, 157.3, 141.3 and 128.9 mg kg^?1 body weight for fish fed 32CP, 32AA, 30CP, 30AA, 28CP and 28AA diets, respectively. TAN excretion by grass carp was reduced in plant‐based practical diets with the increase in dietary protein level and the supplementation of lysine and methionine (P < 0.05). The results indicated that lysine and methionine supplementation to the plant protein sources‐based practical diets can improve growth performance and feed utilization of grass carp, and the dietary crude protein can be reduced from 320 g kg^?1 to 300 g kg^?1 through balancing amino acids profile. The positive effect was not observed at 280 g kg^?1 crude protein level.
