Effects of stocking density on haematological parameters,growth and fin erosion of great sturgeon (Huso huso) juveniles

The influence of stocking density (1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 kg m^?2) was investigated on haematological parameters, growth and fin erosion of great sturgeon (Huso huso) juveniles for a period of 8 weeks. The mean weight of fish at the start of trial was 93.13±1.04 g. After 8 weeks of rearing, the mean weight was 362.4, 319.7, 267, 242.1 and 211.1 in densities 1–8 kg m^?2 respectively. The results of this study showed that growth parameters, including condition factor, weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate and body weight increase, had a statistically significant difference among treatments (P<0.05). A significant difference (P<0.05) was observed in haematocrit, but the other haematological parameters, including red blood cells, white blood cells (WBC), haemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular haemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration and differential WBC count, showed no significant effect with stocking density (P>0.05). At the end of the experiment, stocking density had no significant effect on plasma cortisol and glucose concentration. The fin length (dorsal, anal, ventral, pectoral and caudal) of fish was measured to calculate the fin index. According to this index, dorsal, anal, ventral and pectoral fins showed no significant difference among treatments (P>0.05), but the erosion of the caudal fin was significantly different between fish held on 6 and 8 kg m^?2 (P<0.05). These results showed that rearing density has a major effect on the growth indices of H. huso. Unlike many other fish, great sturgeon exhibited lower stress responses to high stocking density. This indicates that they are more tolerable to rearing conditions in high stocking densities. With respect to the various effects that density causes on growth, fin erosion and physiological and haematological parameters, better understanding of these phenomena considering different levels of density could have a beneficial impact on many rearing steps of this species.     

五种养殖鲟、鳇鱼DNA含量的比较

采用德国Partec Pas Ⅲ型流式细胞仪,以鸡红细胞为标准DNA(含量为2.3pg/N),测定了俄罗斯鲟(Acipenser gueldenstaedti Brandt)、西伯利亚鲟(Acipenser baerii Brandt)、史氏鲟(Acipenser schrencki Brandt)、小体鲟(Acipenser ruthenus Linnaeus)和达氏鳇(Huso dauricus Ceorgi)的体细胞DNA含量。结果表明,在上述五种鲟鱼类的DNA含量中,俄罗斯鲟、西伯利亚鲟和史氏鲟的DNA含量非常接近,分别为12.24pg/N,11.60ps/N,11.59pg/N,三种鲟鱼相比较差异并不显著。小体鲟和达氏鳇的DNA含量是6.06pg/N和4.77pg/N,两种鱼相比较差异也不显著。但与上述三种鲟鱼相比较DNA含量几乎相差1倍。从测定的结果并结合已发表的有关鲟鱼类资料可以确定俄罗斯鲟,西伯利亚鲟和史氏鲟属于八倍体类型,而小体鲟和达氏鳇则属于四倍体类型。     

延迟投饵对杂交鲟仔鱼生长、存活和体成分的影响

以杂交鲟(Huso huso ×Acipenser baeri )仔鱼为研究对象,将其分为 8个处理组,每组100尾(各设2个平行组),分别在孵化后6 d(对照组)、8 d、10 d、12 d、14 d、16 d和18 d开始投喂冰冻卤虫和碎水蚯蚓(以质量比1:1混合),5 d后只投喂碎水蚯蚓。第8组为饥饿组,从不投饵。水温17 ℃,实验周期30 d。结果显示,仔鱼于孵出后8日龄进入混合营养期;10日龄左右是仔鱼开始加速生长的关键时期;12日龄仔鱼进入外源性营养期。随起始投饵时间的延迟,仔鱼的全长、湿重、干重和粗蛋白含量下降,鱼体水分含量则随之升高。但对照组、8日龄及10日龄起始投喂组之间的鱼体水分、粗蛋白、粗脂肪含量并没有显著差异(P>0.05),14日龄及其以后各起始投喂组仔鱼的生长和鱼体生化成分则与上述各组存在显著差异(P相似文献

达氏鳇稚幼鱼生长特性的研究

于2010年7月10日至8月31日,在黑龙江省特产鱼类研究所鲟鳇鱼养殖基地,在水温为16.5～21.0℃的养殖条件下,对全长为（7.60±0.58）cm、体质量为（2.42±0.45）g的43日龄达氏鳇Husodauricus稚鱼进行人工饲养,研究了达氏鳇稚幼鱼的生长特性。结果表明：经过50 d人工饲养,达氏鳇稚幼鱼全长达到（22.16±1.34）cm,体质量达到（38.85±5.23）g;全长与日龄之间呈线性关系,关系式为L=0.289t-4.7875,R2=0.9984,其全长日均增长量为0.278 cm,平均瞬时生长率为5.552%;体质量与日龄呈指数函数关系,关系式为W=0.2808 e0.0554t,R2=0.9644,体质量日均增长量为0.729 g,平均瞬时生长率为2.081%;体质量与全长呈幂函数关系,关系式为W=0.0111L2.6495,R2=0.9978,幂指数小于3,表明达氏鳇稚幼鱼体质量生长慢于全长的生长,属于异速生长类型。     

Effect of dietary GroBiotic®‐A supplementation as a prebiotic on the intestinal microflora,growth performance,haemato‐serological parameters,survival rate and body composition in juvenile beluga (Huso huso Linnaeus, 1754)

The objectives of the present study were to investigate of GroBiotic^®‐A (GBA) on growth, autochthonous intestinal microbiota and haemato‐serological parameters of beluga juvenile. A total of 180 fish (40.82 ± 5.81 g) were fed diets containing graded levels of GBA (0, 5, 10 and 20 g kg^?1 diet) for 8 weeks. No significantly differences in body composition, total viable aerobic bacteria, mean cell volume, mean cell haemoglobin, mean cell haemoglobin concentration, neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, albumin, glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase were detected between treatment groups. The fish fed on 10 and 20 g kg^?1 GBA significantly showed higher lactic acid bacteria, final weight, body weight increases, weight gain and lower feed conversion ratio compared with the control and 5 g kg^?1 groups. The group fed 20 g kg^?1 GBA showed a highly significant difference in condition factor, survival rate, final length, total red and white blood cells, lymphocytes, haematocrit, haemoglobin, total protein, total immunoglobulin and lysozyme activity. The specific growth rate of the treatment groups was significantly elevated compared with the control groups. These results indicated that GBA at level 20 g kg^?1 improved growth, welfare and survival of beluga juvenile.     

达氏鳇稚鱼感觉器官在摄食行为中的作用

通过选择性封闭达氏鳇(Huso dauricus)稚鱼不同感觉器官(包括视觉、嗅觉、触觉、侧线感觉、电感觉、嗅觉+触觉、嗅觉+触觉+电感觉),研究其在达氏鳇稚鱼摄食行为中的作用,旨在为达氏鳇的资源保护和人工培育提供科学依据。实验鱼受精卵采自黑龙江抚远江段,经过开口饲养56 d,随机选择120尾体质健壮的稚鱼用于实验。实验鱼体长为(13.98±1.27)cm,体重为(17.32±4.31)g,在实验开始前暂养适应15 d,实验设计7个实验组和1个对照组。实验持续12 d,期间水温维持在25.2~27.5℃;1 h摄食实验显示,封闭视觉、侧线感觉或触须后稚鱼的摄食量与正常稚鱼(对照组)无显著性差异(P0.05)。结果表明,封闭嗅觉、嗅觉+触须、电感觉、电感觉+嗅觉+触觉时,平均每尾达氏鳇稚鱼摄食量分别为正常水平的69.1%、63.0%、54.3%与43.9%,且差异显著(P0.05),说明电感觉和嗅觉在达氏鳇稚鱼期的摄食中起重要作用;延长摄食实验时间时,达氏鳇稚鱼可能产生了摄食定势与习惯,电感觉和嗅觉的摄食作用并不明显。     

不同投饵率对达氏鳇幼鱼生长影响的初步研究

为了确定达氏鳇(Huso dauricus)幼鱼适宜的投饵率,选取同一种饲料,设置的5个投饵率水平(分别为体重的0.5%、1.0%、1.5%、2.0%、2.5%),在水温17～20℃、溶氧6.2mg/L以上的环境下,对达氏鳇幼鱼生长进行为期30d的试验。应用SPSS软件对各实验组相应的数据进行分析。结果表明,5个投饵率水平的达氏鳇幼鱼相对增重率和特定生长率先升高、后下降、再升高、再下降,而饲料转化率则逐渐下降;达氏鳇幼鱼在该条件下的适宜投饵率为1.0%。     

中国达氏鳇野生群体和两个养殖群体的线粒体遗传多样性分析

达氏鳇(Huso dauricus)是黑龙江流域土著鲟,近几十年来野生资源急剧下降,被确定为濒危物种之一。本研究采用线粒体DNA的Cyt b基因和D-loop区域的多态性信息评估了黑龙江抚远段野生群体、北京房山国家级鲟鱼原种场的保种群体及浙江衢州国家级鲟鱼良种场的繁殖群体等3个达氏鳇群体的遗传多样性水平。所有测试个体在Cyt b基因位点的核苷酸水平上没有检测到多样性,均具有相同的Cyt b单倍型,而在D-loop区域中发现了9种单倍型,对于D-loop区,单倍型多样性(H_d)达到0.593,但核苷酸多样性(π)仅为0.00213。在8尾野生个体中检测到6种D-loop单倍型,2个养殖群体共计58尾个体共计检出5种D-loop单倍型个体。分析结果显示:野生达氏鳇群体遗传多样性极低,历史上可能经历过严重的遗传瓶颈,同时达氏鳇人工繁殖过程中每批次可能只有极少个体参与了繁殖。此外,基于Cyt b基因部分序列的分析结果提示,达氏鳇与其他太平洋鲟类的亲缘关系较近,而与欧鳇(Huso huso)关系较远,传统上鳇属(Huso)的分类地位得不到有效的分子生物学数据支持。     

Comparative study of the intestinal microbial community of wild and cultured kaluga sturgeon,Huso dauricus

The kaluga, Huso dauricus (Georgi 1775), is a large‐sized semi‐anadromous sturgeon native to the Amur River basin. Gut microbes play an important role in the growth and development of fish. Because wild samples of this species are difficult to obtain, very few studies have analysed the microbial community of the kaluga gut. Here, we used high‐throughput sequencing to determine differences in the intestinal microbial communities of wild and cultured kaluga, to lay the foundation for development of micro‐ecological preparations that might ultimately assist with conserving wild kaluga by benefitting sturgeon aquaculture. Two 2‐year‐old (wild) fish collected from the Heilongjiang River basin were size‐ and age‐matched with two 2‐year‐old (cultured) fish obtained from a breeding base in Yunnan Province, for molecular analysis of gut samples. In total, 483,008 16S rRNA sequences were obtained. The intestinal microbial diversity was greater in the wild kaluga than in the cultured fish. The dominant phyla in the gut community of wild kaluga were Proteobacteria (47.9%), Fusobacteria (30.5%) and Firmicutes (8.85%), whereas samples from the cultured kaluga were dominated by Fusobacteria (78%). This result may be attributed to differences in environmental conditions, particularly water quality and temperature, as well as diet between the wild and cultured animals. The findings provide basic data to assist further research and the development of feed as a part of artificial breeding technology.
