长江上游白鲟幼鱼形态发育和产卵场的调查研究

１９８９年３月至１９９１年６月对长江重庆江段１９尾白鲟（体长４８０～１１４８ｍｍ）的形态、生长和食性进行了分析及年龄鉴定。结果表明，幼鲟生长较快，身体各部分增长不一致，眼径、吻须增长较慢。其体长（ＢＬ）、体重（Ｗ）的关系式为：Ｗ＝５．２１１９×１０－６ＢＬ２．９２７１。白鲟为肉食性鱼类，体长约６４７ｍｍ的幼鲟主要摄食小型鲤科鱼类。葛洲坝截流后，长江上游白鲟产卵场未变，种群数量有所回升。     

西北太平洋海域柔鱼产卵场和作业渔场的水温年间比较及其与资源丰度的关系

根据1995-2002年西北太平洋柔鱼的产卵场和索饵场表温及其生产统计数据,对其表温的年间变动及其与资源丰度的关系进行探讨。在20°～30°N、140°～170°E产卵场海域,1995-1997年表温相对较低,而1999年偏高,1998年和2000-2002年则处在中间水平。在39°～45°N、150°E以西索饵场海域,2002年表温处在较低水平,1998-2000年偏高,1995-1997和2001年处在中间水平。在39°～45°N、150°～165°E索饵场海域,1995、1997和2002年表温较低,1998-2000年偏高,1996和2001年处在中间水平。灰色关联表明,产卵场和索饵场的表温及距平均值均对柔鱼资源丰度影响较为显著,其关联度均在0.5以上。资源丰度与距表温平均值的多元线性模型为:在150°E以西海域,CPUE=1.0700+1.6840T1+2.7596T2-2.3177T3;在150°～165°E海域,CPUE=2.5311-1.5226T1+0.1519T2+0.6720T3。     

Movement patterns of armado, Pterodoras granulosus, in the Paraná River Basin

Abstract –  We studied the migratory behaviour of armado, Pterodoras granulosus , in the Paraná River Basin of Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, during 1997–2005. This species invaded the Upper Paraná River after upstream dispersal was facilitated when Itaipu Reservoir inundated a natural barrier. Fish were tagged ( N  = 8051) in the mainstems of the Yacyreta and Itaipu reservoirs, bays of major tributaries, the Paraná River floodplain above Itaipu Reservoir, and below dams. In all, 420 fish were recaptured of which 61% moved away from the release area. Fish moved a maximum of 215 km (mean 42), and at a maximum rate of 9.4 km·day⁻¹ (mean 0.6). Of the 256 armados that moved away from the release site, 145 moved upstream towards unimpounded stretches of the Paraná River and 111 moved downstream into the reservoir and bays of its tributaries (maximum 150 km). Based on the observed migratory movements, we suspect that most of the reproductive output originates in tributaries to the reservoirs. The ability of this species to expand its range presents a conundrum by pitting fishery management interests against conservation needs. Maintenance of the important armado fisheries depends on the ability of the species to migrate freely to use spawning and nursery areas in reservoir tributaries and floodplains. However, its ability to migrate long distances can allow this non-native species the opportunity to invade most of the Upper Paraná River.     

Changes in tissue lipid levels in the freshwater catfishClarias batrachus associated with the reproductive cycle

The levels of free fatty acid (FFA), monoglyceride (MG), diglyceride (DG), triglyceride (TG), phospholipid (PL), free cholesterol (CF) and esterified cholesterol (CE) were measured in the liver, plasma, ovary, abdominal fat and muscle during different phases of the annual reproductive cycle in femaleClarias batrachus. During the preparatory phase, hepatic lipogenic activity predominated over mobilization and consumption. In the prespawning season, an increased hepatic lipogenic activity was maintained, but lipids were transferred from the liver to the ovary. In the spawning phase, the diminished food intake, and enhanced caloric demand for spawning behaviour and activity limited hepatic lipogenic activity, and TG lypolysis was increased as was the production of more FFA. Maximum accumulation of vitellogenin, as reflected by maximum rise in ovarian PL titre was characteristic of this phase. Marked reductions in ovarian lipid occurred during the postspawning phase. In the resting phase, there was a recovery of lipogenic activity, but PL synthesis was still inhibited. In contrast to other investigated teleosts, there were extremely high level of FFA in liver, plasma, ovary and muscle throughout the annual reproductive cycle inC. batrachus. FFA appears to be the main lipid metabolite which had a very high turnover. As evidenced by the high TG content, abdominal fat seems to be the main fat depot, not the liver and muscle.Correspondent author     

Artificial spawning of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.); differences between the effects of reproduction in females of Hungarian, Polish and French origin treated with carp pituitary homogenate or [D-Tle6, ProNHEt9] GnRH (Lecirelin)

The investigation concerned the reproduction effects in carp females of the Hungarian strain 8, Polish strain 2 and French strain F of ovulation stimulation with carp pituitary homogenate (0.3 mg kg^?1 and after 12 h 2.7 mg kg^?1) or [D‐Tle⁶, ProNHEt⁹]GnRH (Lecirelin) with metoclopramide (15 μg kg^?1 and 10 mg kg^?1 respectively). The ovulation stimulators did not affect the weight of eggs (expressed in g and as the percentage of female body weight). However, in the group treated with pituitary homogenate (I) the least‐square means estimated for these parameters were higher than in the group treated with Lecirelin (II). A statistically significant (P≤0.05) difference in the mean percentage of living embryos after 48‐h incubation was observed between groups I and II, with the eggs obtained from females of group I being of better quality. The origin of females significantly (P≤0.05) affected the weight of eggs. The weight of eggs from females of Hungarian strain 8 was higher (P≤0.05) than the weight of eggs of the other two lines. With respect to parameters for egg quality (percentage of fertilized eggs and percentage of living embryos after 24‐, 36‐ and 48‐h incubation), no effect of the origin of females was observed. The interaction between the spawning agent and the origin of the females was not statistically significant with respect to the two parameters for the weight of the eggs. The least‐square means test for the investigated interaction showed that after the application of pituitary homogenate, the weight of eggs obtained from strains 8 and F was similar (respectively 711.2 g and 665.0 g). However, after the application of Lecirelin the females of strain 8 yielded eggs of a high weight (934.3 g) and those of strain F of a very low weight (373.2 g). A statistically significant (P≤0.05) interaction between ovulation stimulator and origin of females was recorded for the percentage of living embryos after 24‐ and 36‐h incubation. A dependence was found between the latency time and the reproduction effects.     

Length-based Beverton and Holt spawning stock biomass per-recruit-models, with application to the Lates stappersii (Boulenger) stock in Lake Tanganyika

Two kinds of length-based Beverton and Holt spawning stock biomass per-recruit ( SSB/R )-models are presented. The first allows the computation of the absolute value of SSB/R . The second estimates the index of SSB/R , also called 'relative SSB/R '. Both models are extensions of the original age-based Beverton and Holt SSB/R -models. The SSB/R and its index can be assessed with reference to variations in the exploitation characteristics. These models were applied to the Lates stappersii (Boulenger) stock in Lake Tanganyika using fishing mortality as the independent variable. They produce an absolute value of SSB/R of 12.95 g, representing 22.4% of that of the 'virgin' stock for the 1993–1994 equilibrium-fishing regime. This level is indicative of an unsafe state of the stock in question. Moreover, the SSB for L. stappersii seems to be fragile under increased fishing pressure as, for example, doubling or tripling the current fishing regime would reduce the current SSB/R by 57.3 and 77.4%, respectively. In general, the use of length-based Beverton and Holt SSB/R -models is handicapped by underlying hypotheses and sub-models which are restrictive.

Recruitment patterns of six species of cyprinid fishes in the lower River Trent, England

Abstract – Fisheries data were collected for six species of 0-group cyprinid fishes from eight sites in the lower reaches of the River Trent, England, between May and October 1999 inclusive, using a micromesh seine net. Recruitment and growth patterns were observed via monthly length–frequency histograms and estimations of mean length. In the cases of roach and dace, growth was approximately linear through the summer, before declining in September and October. In the cases of chub and gudgeon, and to a lesser extent bream and bleak, however, there were suggestions of multiple recruitment events. It is argued that some of the fish species examined in the present study adopt fractional or protracted spawning strategies in the lower River Trent.     

Creation of artificial upwelling areas for brown trout, Salmo trutta, spawning in still water bodies

Abstract  Brown trout, Salmo trutta L., spawning sites were constructed by creating areas of artificial upwelling water, 252 ± 37 mL m⁻² min⁻¹ (95% CL), through appropriately sized spawning gravel substrate in 3 m² vessels buried in the bottom of a 150-m² pond. Natural spawning occurred in the vessels during autumn 2001–2004, with hatching and alevin swim up the following spring. In areas of upwelling, egg survival was 85–95%, while no live eggs were observed in areas without upwelling. In areas with upwelling, the maximum density of live eggs at the eyed stage was 570–1510 eggs m⁻². In spring 2004 and 2005, the density of alevins was estimated at 322 (±187) m⁻² and 567 (±217) m⁻², respectively, in areas with upwelling water, compared with 35.2 ± 25.4 m⁻² in areas without upwelling water in 2004.
