1. An Accurate Method for Measuring Triploidy of Larval Fish Spawns

Author:

North American journal of aquaculture 2017 v.79 no.3 pp. 224-237

Subject:
Bivalvia; Ctenopharyngodon idella; DNA; cell suspension culture; diploidy; equations; fish larvae; flow cytometry; nuclear genome; prediction; propidium; regression analysis; triploidy
Abstract:
... A standard flow cytometric protocol was developed for estimating triploid induction in batches of larval fish. Polyploid induction treatments are not guaranteed to be 100% efficient, thus the ability to quantify the proportion of triploid larvae generated by a particular treatment helps managers to stock high-percentage spawns and researchers to select treatments for efficient triploid induction. ...

Abstract:
... Prymnesium parvum blooms result in fish kills around the world and are devastating to fish hatcheries, where few management tools are available. Current control strategies include algaecides, nutrient management, and flocculation, which are moderately effective at best and can be toxic to nontarget organisms. A relatively new type of medium, registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency f ...

Scortum barcoo; blood glucose; body weight; cholesterol; crude protein; energy; feeding frequency; fish; glycogen; hepatosomatic index; histology; liver; mineral content; muscles; proximate composition; staining
Abstract:
... Jade Perch Scortum barcoo having an initial average weight of 7.28 ± 0.13 g (mean ± SE) were cultured in a recirculating system at different feeding frequencies that included one, two, three, or four meals a day at 5% body weight per day. Treatments were performed in triplicate using 65 fish in each replicate. After 72 d, the survival, growth, feeding efficiencies, body indices, plasma biochemistr ...

Abstract:
... This study evaluated the use of tuna by-product silage (TBS) in diets based on soybean meal (SBM) for the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei . A diet based on fish meal (FM, positive control) only was compared with five isonitrogenous formulations (35% crude protein) based on SBM containing increasing dietary levels of TBS (0, 14.9, 29.8, 44.7, or 59.6%) replacing 0% (TBS0, negative control ...

Abstract:
... The size of oocytes during germinal vesicle migration (GVM) and germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) was revised for the Leopard Grouper Mycteroperca rosacea . Histology of ovaries, plasma levels of estradiol-17ß (E2), and testosterone (T) were analyzed in Leopard Grouper at 0, 12, 16, and 24 h after a priming dose of 1,000 IU/kg body weight of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and were compared wit ...

Abstract:
... Fisheries biologists have long been interested in monitoring stress in fish by observing changes in glucose concentrations. However, measuring glucose in the field is difficult, time consuming, and expensive. Diabetic glucose meters may provide a rapid, cost-effective monitoring tool that can be used in the field or laboratory, but they need to be evaluated for a particular species before they can ...

Abstract:
... Trypsin from Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei is a polymorphic protein composed of three alleles (A, B, and C). The C allele is monomorphic for the first region, while A and B are allelic variations for the second region that are segregated according to Mendelian rules. These three alleles give rise to three individual trypsin phenotypes displayed in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide ...
