The first record of Misgurnus anguillicaudatus in Germany

Oriental weatherfish Misgurnus anguillicaudatus , from southern China, have been imported to Germany in large numbers for the garden pond trade. The first record of M. anguillicaudatus from Central Europe, a population that has been established for at least 14 years in a small nature reserve in Germany, is detailed.     

Simultaneous formation of haploid, diploid and triploid eggs in diploid–triploid mosaic loaches

In the loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus , very few diploid–triploid mosaic individuals, which are generated by accidental incorporation of the sperm nucleus into diploid eggs produced by clonal diploid loach, occur in nature. Ploidy examination of gynogenetic progeny induced by activation with ultraviolet-irradiated goldfish sperm indicated that diploid–triploid mosaic females laid haploid, diploid and triploid eggs, simultaneously. In addition, triploid eggs exhibited larger egg sizes. Microsatellite genotyping of diploid–triploid mosaics revealed that triploid genotypes of mosaic mothers possessed two alleles specific to the clonal diploid and one allele from normal diploid male. Diploid eggs from a mosaic mother had genotypes absolutely identical to the diploid clone. Most genotypes of triploid eggs were identical to the mosaic mother, and one of the three alleles of the mosaic mother was transmitted to haploid eggs. These results suggested that diploid germ cells, which had a clonal genome, were differentiated into clonal diploid eggs, and triploid and haploid eggs were produced from triploid germ cells in the same ovary of mosaic individuals.     

两种泥鳅不同群体遗传变异的RAPD分析

应用RAPD技术,分析了采自于我国黄河、长江和珠江三大水系中游的大鳞副泥鳅和泥鳅不同群体间的遗传变异。结果表明：种内不同群体间带纹相似度在0．730－0．938之间;遗传距离为0．089－0．245;种间不同群体间的带纹相似度为0．392－0．505,遗传距离为0．620－0．800。两种泥鳞采自武汉的群体,其不同个体间的相似度较之其它群体为低,表明其群体内遗传变异程度较高。

Biological Control of Culex pipiens pattens (Diptera, Culicidae) by the Release of Fish Muddy Loach, Misgurnus mizolepis in Natural Ponds, Korea

ABSTRACT An assessment on the biological control potential with the fish muddy loaches (Misgurnus mizolepis) was conducted against naturally bred Culex pipiens pollens larvae in four ponds (A, B, C and D) in Busan from July through September, 2001. Predation of the fish at 3 different release rates of 4,5, and 6 fish/m² resulted in mostly over 90% mosquito control from the first week after treatment through the end of the survey period for 11 weeks. There were no significant difference among the release rates of fish at the 5% level of probability. However, substantial controls of 43.0% and 25.9% were obtained from pond C during the 3rd and 7th weeks after the fish introduction, respectively. The results of those two weeks showed a lower biological control by the introduced larvivorous fishes. This might be due to the presence of heavy organic matters including aquatic weeds and/or severely polluted water from sewage in pond C. The aquatic weeds covered the pond's water surface which may have affected the deterioration of mosquito preying in favor of aquatic weeds. Also, the fishes were observed to avoid severely contaminated sewage water in some parts of ponds A and C where more mosquito larvae were found.     

The effects of temperature and chorionic gonadotropin on the functional properties of lactate dehydrogenase from oocytes of loach Misgurnus fossilis

Acclimation of loach to relatively low and high temperatures gives rise to changes in the properties of LDH from oocytes. The minimum of apparent K_m values for pyruvate of LDH from immature oocytes of fish acclimated to low temperature was registered at low assay temperatures, whereas adaptation to high temperatures leads to the enzyme showing a minimum at high temperatures. In thermal acclimation of fish the K_m minimum value drifts during 15 days. During oocyte maturation, the K_m minimum drifts during 40 hr. The differences in the kinetic features of LDH from oocytes both at thermal acclimation and during oocyte maturation are not associated with the appearance of new isozymes.     

泥鳅精子入卵的动力作用

在扫描电镜下,泥鳅成熟卵卵膜孔外围呈现完整的左涡旋状结构,受精时精子是顺着涡旋的流线进入卵膜孔。涡旋纹理接近对数螺线。本文分析了真骨鱼类的受精因素,除已知的化学因素外,还存在物理因素。也讨论了泥鳅成熟卵卵膜孔形态形成的必然性。     

泥鳅和大鳞副泥鳅卵雌核的紫外辐射灭活条件筛选

采用紫外线对泥鳅和大鳞副泥鳅卵雌性原核进行干法灭活以及在合成卵巢液、TC-199溶液、Ringer氏溶液和Holtfreter氏溶液中灭活,结果表明:当辐射剂量为90-180mJ/cm~2时,卵子在四种溶液中的单倍体诱导率均较高。合成卵巢液组的最佳辐射剂量为120-180mJ/cm~2;TC-199和Ringer氏溶液组的最佳辐射剂量为120mJ/cm~2;原液使用Holtfreter氏溶液效果欠佳,干法灭活效果最差。在上述各辐射剂量下,畸形苗经染色体组鉴定92％为雄核发育单倍体。综合评价,灭活效果依次是:人工合成卵巢液>TC-199溶液>Ringer氏溶液>Holtfreter氏溶液>干法。     

铜对大鳞泥鳅幼鱼的毒性

本文用流水和换水式试验,在水硬度为115mg/L(以CaCO_3计)条件下研究了铜对大鳞泥鳅幼鱼生长和存活的影响。试验从刚孵出的幼鱼开始,流水式试验持续30d,换水式试验历时16d。结果表明,在流水条件下铜对泥鳅幼鱼存活有明显影响的可观察效应浓度最低是41.2μg/L,而无可观察效应浓度则为25.2μg/L。根据对现存量的影响,用换水式试验测得铜的最低可观察效应浓度为38μg/L,无可观察效应浓度是19μg/L。
