食物种类和密度对萼花臂尾轮虫休眠卵形成的影响

采用种群累积培养法,研究了藻类食物的种类和密度对萼花臂尾轮虫休眠卵形成的影响。结果表明,萼花臂尾轮虫的休眠卵主要在开始培养后的６天内形成。在０．１ｍｇ／ｍｌ的食物密度下,与蛋白核小球藻相比,斜生栅藻或斜生栅藻和蛋白核小球藻经１：１（湿重）组成的混合藻均能显著地提高休眠卵的产量和形成效率,同时也使轮虫种群中的平均混交雌体百分率和产休眠卵的混交雌体的平均产卵量明显增大,但对平均混交雌体受精率无显著影响     

养鱼池轮虫休眠卵分布和萌发的研究

东北地区部分鱼场养鱼池底泥中轮虫的休眠卵,表层(0—5厘米)数量每平方米为1．2—503万个,个别池塘高达1,573万个,其中完全暴露于泥表面的数量约占1—2％。休眠卵数量差别和池塘环境条件关系密切;各泥层中的轮虫休眠卵数量呈“V”形垂直分布的趋势。萼花臂尾轮虫和角突臂尾轮虫的休眠卵在水温10-40℃;pH4．5-11．5;溶氧0．3毫克／升以上和盐度8．5%以下的条件下可以萌发。10℃为其发育的生物学零度。根据轮虫休眠卵分布和它的环境条件的关系,以及萌发的生态条件,阐述了在养鱼池中增殖轮虫所应采取的措施及其理论根据。

报道了萼花臂尾轮虫休眠卵的低温贮存时间、萌发温度、光照、孵化液等因子对其萌发的影响．休眠卵萌发率随低温贮存时间的延长而提高,以贮存30～50d作用最显著．在10～30℃温度范围内．萌发率随温度的升高而增加,超过30℃时,萌发率则有所下降．光对休眠卵的萌发是一非必需条件。把休眠卵从不新鲜的孵化液转移到新鲜的孵化液中能刺激其萌发．     

三种淡水藻类对萼花臂尾轮虫培养效果的比较

在28℃下,采用群体累积培养法,探讨了不同浓度的蛋白核小球藻（Chlorella pyrenodeosa）、水华鱼腥藻（Anabaena flas-aquae）和沙角衣藻（Chlamyclomoras sajao）,以及在等生物量条件下,以上3种藻类两两配比饵料（3：1、1：1和1：3）对萼花臂尾轮虫（Brachionus calyciflorus）的培养效果。结果表明,不同浓度的蛋白核小球藻、水华鱼腥藻和沙角衣藻对萼花臂尾轮虫增殖效果的影响分别表现为差异极显著（P〈0．01）、显著（P〈0．05）和不显著（P〉0．05）;蛋白核小球藻与水华鱼腥藻组成的混合饵料对萼花臂尾轮虫的增殖效果均优于其中的单一种类（P〈0．05）;沙角衣藻无论是单独投喂,还是与其它藻类混合投喂,轮虫的培养效果均不理想。因此,该种类不宜用作轮虫饵料开发。该研究还表明,蛋白核小球藻是培养萼花臂尾轮虫的最适单一种类,它与水华鱼腥藻组成的混合饵料培养萼花臂尾轮虫效果更好。

萼花臂尾轮虫培养滤液对铜绿微囊藻、斜生栅藻和小球藻群体形成及生长的影响

为探索浮游动物和藻类之间可能存在的信息传递,研究了萼花臂尾轮虫培养滤液对铜绿微囊藻、斜生栅藻和小球藻的生长及群体形成的影响.把萼花臂尾轮虫按1000个·L^-1的初始密度置于小球藻中培养24h后,用孔径0.15μm的微孔滤膜抽滤,得到轮虫培养滤液,此滤液中含有轮虫在生活过程中释放的一些信息化学物质.将轮虫培养滤液以20%的比例分别加入纯培养的铜绿微囊藻、斜生栅藻和小球藻中,进行为期7d的试验.结果表明,萼花臂尾轮虫培养滤液能显著地促进斜生栅藻的群体形成,而对铜绿微囊藻和小球藻在群体形成方面没有显著作用.另外,该滤液能显著提高小球藻种群的增长,对铜绿微囊藻和斜生栅藻的生长无明显影响.3种藻类对萼花臂尾轮虫的潜在牧食采取了不同的生态策略:斜生栅藻形成群体,增大摄食阻力,从而降低被摄食的风险;小球藻通过提高增长率来抵消被取食的损失;铜绿微囊藻是通过其它方式来降低被牧食(例如毒素).这些方式分别是这些藻类维持种群规模的反牧食防御策略之一.

Functional evaluation of culture filtrates of Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens on the mortality and hatching of Meloidogyne javanica

Rhizospheric bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens are two widely tested biological control agents against root-knot nematodes (RKN) of different crops. However, their performance as bio-control agents varies with their place of origin. Culture filtrates of rhizospheric bacteria contain some intermediary metabolites that have nematicidal activity. An in vitro experiment was undertaken to evaluate the functionality of culture filtrates of B. subtilis (MN252542.1) and P. fluorescens (MN256394.1) at different concentrations (1.0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.0%, 10.0% and 25.0%) on the hatching and mortality of Meloidogyne javanica at different time span. Bacterial strains were isolated from rhizospheric soils of Bangladesh. At three days after incubation (DAI), 25.0% concentration of culture filtrates of both B. subtilis and P. fluorescens showed 100.0% mortality of second stage juveniles (J₂) of M. javanica. Additionally, 25.0% concentration of culture filtrates of both bacteria showed 100.0% inhibition of hatching at one week after incubation (WAI). A decreasing trend in hatching of M. javanica was observed with the increment of the concentration of culture filtrates and progression of incubation time. The findings of this experiment reveal that culture filtrates of these accessions of B. subtilis and P. fluorescens are effective for controlling M. javanica and would be potential candidates for developing bio-nematicides.     

卤虫(Artemia salina)孵化腺细胞分化时相的免疫细胞化学研究(简报)

动物孵化酶(hatching enzyme,HE)是早期胚胎在特定发育阶段由孵化腺细胞产生和分泌的,在动物早期胚胎孵化中具有关键性作用。孵化腺细胞(hatching gland cell,HGC)一般为单细胞腺体,是从胚胎发育到特定阶段(孵化前)出现、至胚胎孵出后的特定时期消失的一时性细胞(transient type ofcells)。完全分化的HGC内充满了低电子密度的酶原颗粒(孵化酶原颗粒),在鱼胚中的分布因物种而异。在大多数鱼中,HGC分布在胚体的外表面和/或卵黄囊中,一般为外胚层来源。如在虹蹲鱼HGC分布在胚体的前表面、卵黄囊、咽部、鳃的内表面及外表面,属于外胚层来源。而日本鳉鱼HGC     

Development of cortical vesicles in Sicyonia ingentis ova: their heterogeneity and role in elaboration of the hatching envelope

In the marine shrimp Sicyonia ingentis, ova lack cortical vesicles at spawning. Previous ultrastructural studies suggested that two different populations of cortical vesicles (dense vesicles and the ring vesicles) appear within 30 min post-spawning. These vesicles undergo sequential exocytosis (exocytosis of the dense vesicles followed by exocytosis of the ring vesicles) that leads to the formation of a hatching envelope around the ovum (see Pillai and Clark: Tissue & Cell 20:941-52, 1988). In the present study, lectins were used as molecular probes to study the development of cortical vesicles subsequent to spawning and the role of these vesicles in formation and elaboration of the hatching envelope. Isolated envelopes were screened with 11 different lectins to determine what group(s) were specific to the envelope glycoconjugates; Concanavalin A (Con A), Griffonia simplicifolia (GS II), Lens culinaris (LCA), and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) bound to the envelopes. FITC-lectin studies of sectioned ova (fixed at various time points after spawning) utilizing WGA and LCA showed different labelling patterns. Data obtained at the light microscopical level indicated that WGA was specific to the dense vesicles and the outer portion of the envelope, while LCA exhibited specificity for the ring vesicles and the inner portion of the envelope. At the ultrastructural level, gold-LCA labelling was seen associated with the cisternal elements (containing ring-shaped structures), ring vesicles, and the inner layer of the fully formed envelope. These data demonstrated that 1) the ring vesicles are formed by fusion of cisternal elements containing ring-shaped structures; 2) the two species of cortical vesicles are chemically heterogeneous; and 3) the components of each type of vesicle contribute to different integral parts (the outer and inner layers) of the hatching envelope.     

Effect of some fertilizers on hatching of cereal cysts nematode,Heterodera avenae

Experiments were conducted in laboratory and pot conditions to determine the effects of urea, di-ammonium phosphate (DAP), single super phosphate (SSP), muriate of potash (MOP) and zinc sulphate (ZnSO₄) on hatching of Heterodera avenae. Two concentrations of each fertilizer were tested in lab for which 10 cysts and 5 ml of each concentration were taken in 5 cm diameter Petri plates. Observations were recorded at weekly intervals up to six weeks. Urea, DAP, SSP and MOP inhibited hatching and ZnSO₄ increased it. After six weeks, hatching was least (5.45%) in higher dose of urea and greatest (46.9%) in higher dose of ZnSO₄. In pot experiment, two doses of urea and single dose of SSP, MOP, and ZnSO₄ were applied in H. avenae-infested soil and WH-1105 wheat was sown. Observations on nematodes in roots, soil and remaining cyst contents were recorded 40 days after sowing. Among all the fertilizers, least nematodes in soil and roots were found at higher dose of urea and greatest number in ZnSO₄.     

Effect of heat treatment on pre-stocking of Turkey eggs and its impact on incubation and hatching

Egg stocking is used to meet housing demands in the hatchery industry. Stocking periods longer than 10 days of occur commonly, despite the fact that this practice causes productive losses during the incubation process. To minimize these losses, eggs are heated before incubation to stimulate the embryo, thereby reducing the range of birth intervals. The objective of this study was to determine whether heat treatment (37.5 °C) prior to incubation would improve hatching rates. We also determined the heat-exposure time necessary to improve productivity. We stored 5376 Nicholas pedigree eggs, aged between 40 and 51 weeks, for seven days. These eggs were distributed in three groups: groups 1 and 2 received 4 and 6 h of heat treatment, respectively; group 3 was used as control (no heat treatment, remaining at 17 °C). After heat treatment, the eggs were stored for 7 days at 17 °C, together with eggs from the control group. We found significant variation in the cumulative dispersion of birds born during the hatch window; greater numbers of birds were born in group 1 that underwent the 4-h heat treatment with a 24-h hatch window and in group 3 that underwent the 6-h heat treatment with a 12-h hatch window. Hatch rate, yolk retention and the relationship between average chick weight/average egg weight did not differ between treatments. These data suggest that heat treatment modulates the hatch window; nevertheless, the treatment did not influence the average weight the chicks, the number of chicks born, the percentage of hatching or yolk retention.     

Effect ofAzotobacter chroococcum on the hatching of egg masses and eggs ofMeloidogyne incognita

Summary Investigations were carried out to study the effect ofAzotobacter chroococcum VP-5 on the hatching of egg masses and eggs ofMeloidogyne incognita in vitro. Eggs were more susceptible and required lesser time for antagonistic action of Azotobacter than egg masses.     

Improved Methods of Hatching Heterodera schachtii Larvae for Screening Chemicals

The rate of hatching of Heterodera schachtii larvae was greatly increased by placing cysts in sieves enclosed by small disposable cups. An apparatus that permitted rapid storage of second-stage larvae at 10 C prolonged the viability of the larvae.     

Successful sperm cryopreservation of the brown-marbled grouper,Epinephelus fuscoguttatus using propylene glycol as cryoprotectant

This study developed the cryopreservation of brown-marbled grouper spermatozoa for practical application. We examined 32 cryodiluents, developed from four types of cryoprotectants [propylene glycol (PG), dimethyl-sulphoxide (Me₂SO), dimethyl-acetamide (DMA) and ethylene glycol (EG)] at four concentrations of 5, 10, 15 and 20% in combination with two extenders [Fetal bovine serum (FBS) and artificial seminal plasma (ASP). Cooling rates were examined by adjusting the height of straws (2.5–12.5 cm) from the liquid nitrogen (LN) vapor and cooled for 5 min before immersion into LN. DNA laddering was used to detect DNA damage in cryopreserved sperm. In fertilization trials, 0.5 g of eggs was mixed with cryopreserved sperm stored for 30 days in LN. The best motility of post-thaw sperm was achieved using 15% PG + 85% FBS (76.7 ± 8.8%); 10% PG + 90% FBS was also effective as cryodiluent. Generally, FBS gave better post-thaw motility compared to ASP. The optimum cooling rate was at 17.6 °C min⁻¹ obtained by freezing at the height of 7.5 cm surface of LN. The results obtained showed that cryopreserved sperm of brown-marbled grouper suffered slight DNA fragmentation, which resulted in significantly lower motility. However, the fertilization (90.9 ± 0.5%), hatching (64.5 ± 4.1%) and deformity rates (3.8 ± 0.2%) obtained from cryopreserved sperm showed no significant difference with fresh sperm. These findings show that the developed protocol for cryopreservation of brown-marbled grouper sperm was viable and will be useful for successful breeding and seed production of brown-marbled grouper.
