Visible implant elastomer (VIE) tagging showed no significant effect on survival of either 230 single-tagged or 60 multiple-tagged small European eels Anguilla anguilla . Mean tag retention was 98·7% during the 5 month laboratory experiments. Multiple VIE tags had no observed effect on European eel locomotor behaviour. VIE appears a reliable method for individually tagging small European eels, and could be useful in capture–recapture field studies. 相似文献

The retention and readability of visible implant (VI) tags were evaluated in juvenile brown trout. The tags were implanted in the adipose eyelid tissue posterior to the left eye, in a total of 6697 fish in 18 groups. During the first year, tag retention increased with tagging experience, from 58 to 64% in 3–summer–old fish and from 86 to 96% in 4–summer–old fish. The effect of fish size at tagging on tag loss was clear in the 3–summer–old groups in 1991 (ANOVA, P = 0.00001). Tag retention in 3–year–old and 4–summer–old fish in 1992 and 1993 varied from 96 to 99% and the handling of the fish after tagging affected retention significantly ( t –test, P = 0.0002), the average being 98.7% for those transposed by submerging and 96.5% in those transposed by dropping. After inspection the fish were released into a natural environment. On recapture after 6 months or more the red tags (faded almost to white) and yellow tags (originally close to white) were difficult to distinguish. No infection or tissue damage was found after either inspection or stocking. 相似文献

Growth, and potential marking‐related mortality of small European eel Anguilla anguilla (L.) after marking with visible implant elastomer tags (VIE) and coded wire tags (CWT) were investigated over a 6‐month period in a laboratory experiment. In addition, mark retention after marking was examined for another 16.5 months. Neither marking method had a significant effect on growth (P > 0.05) or mortality (P > 0.05). After 32 days detection of the VIE marks implanted on the ventral surface and along the base of the ventral tail fin margin was 98 and 100%, respectively, but decreased to 9 and 66% after 512 days. Retention of the CWT implanted in the dorsal musculature of A. anguilla was 99% after 32 days and did not change by day 512. It was therefore concluded that marking‐induced mortality was nil for both marking types over the 6‐month period. Generally, both methods are found to be suitable for marking young A. Anguilla. VIE tags, however, should be used for short‐time mark‐recapture experiments only, and should be injected at the base of the ventral fin margin. The use of CWTs seems to be the more suitable marking method for long‐term mark‐recapture experiments. Nevertheless, field tests are necessary to evaluate these marking methods. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to mark endangered sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus) with visible implant elastomer (VIE) in order to assess mortality, compatibility, retention, persistence and histological reactions resulting from this tagging technique. It was hypothesized there would be only minor effects on the fishes' health, and assumed that acute effects would be more pronounced than long‐term effects. On 11 September 2013, 20 specimens were tagged ventrally with visible implant elastomer, 20 received a subcutaneous injection with 0.9% NaCl solution, and another 20 served as untreated control. Mean total length was 28.0 ± 1.8 cm and mean body mass 64.1 ± 12.0 g. The sterlets were kept in four 4,000‐L tanks filled with 2,400‐L water. Acute effects were monitored for 95 days, where fish were held at temperatures between 2.4°C and 15.2°C, reflecting outdoor conditions. Chronic effects were examined 282 days post‐tagging through histological sections of the tagging region in five sterlets. During the first 95 days of observation, tag retention was 100%. No signs of incompatibility were detected. Body mass did not significantly differ between VIE‐tagged fish and controls. At day 282 post‐tagging, however, distinct tissue reactions were visible at the tagging sites of nine fish. Histological examination of five fish revealed a variable degree of infiltration with leukocytes in the areas around the elastomer, which did not necessarily correspond with the externally visible degree of inflammation. After medical treatment, the lesions healed without complications, whereas the retention rate of the VIE tags was 5%. According to the findings, the tag location rather than the tag itself was responsible for the externally visible irritations, indicating that the ventral subcutis of sterlet is not a suitable site, even for small VIE tags in long‐term studies. The results of this study also suggest that VIE marking should in general be critically evaluated before application in field studies. 相似文献

Retention and mortality associated with visible implant elastomer (VIE) and passive integrated transponder (PIT) tagged juvenile chub [ Leuciscus cephalus (L.)], dace [ Leuciscus leuciscus (L.)] and roach [ Rutilus rutilus (L.)] were evaluated. PIT tag retention (96.6–100%) was higher than VIE over the 6-month duration of the experiment. VIE retention was significantly better in the head (96.3–98.8%) than in the fins (78.8–90.9%) the first month after tagging, but the opposite was found after 6 months (head = 21.5–57.5%; fins = 77.2–88.8%). Survival was not significantly different from controls for any treatment, except dace tagged with 23-mm PIT (significantly influenced by mass of fish at tagging) and sham PIT tagged dace, because of initial losses. PIT tags are recommended as the most suitable method for tagging individual juvenile chub, dace and roach based on high retention and survival. VIE implantation in the head (studies < 30 days) and fins (studies > 30 days) could provide a cheap, batch-marking alternative, provided retention rates are monitored. 相似文献

Visible implant elastomer (VIE) was evaluated as a method for individual marking of small perch Perca fluviatilis and common bully Gobiomorphus cotidianus to use in capture–recapture studies. Growth, survival and mark retention was measured in 25 VIE marked and 15 unmarked fish of each species during a 125 day laboratory experiment. Marking had no effect on growth or survival of either species and mark retention in perch was 100%. Common bully mark retention was high for the initial 30 days but decreased to 72% by the end of the experiment. VIE marking provided an excellent method for individual identification of small perch over periods of at least 125 days, but improvements to common bully mark retention are necessary if VIE is to be used in capture–recapture studies >30 days. 相似文献

This study examined the efficacy of marking wild populations of lampreys with visible implant elastomer (VIE) for 6–18 months to examine ammocoete movements using Cormack–Jolly–Seber (CJS) open‐population models. These methods were tested on two lamprey populations in different river systems. American brook lamprey Lethenteron appendix at Dyke Creek apparent survival (φ) was high in the summer and winter (c. 0·7), but declined after flow events in the spring and autumn. Sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus at Oquaga Creek φ in the top‐ranked models varied with stream location and time. Estimates of φ were similar to Dyke Creek during the summer (c. 0·7), but declined after flow events and remained low (c. 0·1) in winter. Open‐population models support current understanding of ammocoete movement, i.e. dispersal is driven by high‐flow events at certain times of the year. The present study provides a framework to study ammocoetes with VIE. 相似文献

A 95‐day experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of a visible implant elastomer tag (VIE) versus a coded wire tag (CWT) implanted in juvenile Tibet fish Oxygymnocypris stewartii (Lloyd, 1908; total length 5~7 cm) under laboratory conditions. Mortality, tag retention and growth in three groups of juvenile O. stewartii (VIE‐tagged, CWT‐tagged and control) in duplicate were determined in six indoor tanks (300‐L/tank volume, 100 fish/tank) at 15.6 ± 0.5°C water temperature. Results showed that neither tagging method had a significant difference on the mortality of the experimental fish, but that the growth rate in the VIE group was significantly lower than in the CWT and control groups. Mean tag retention in the VIE group was 95.2%, and 98.9% in the CWT group, with no significant differences in tag retention in the two methods. The study indicates that both VIE and CWT are suitable short‐term tagging methods for hatchery O. stewartii juveniles. 相似文献

After 183 days, the retention of the visible implant elastomer marks implanted on the belly and along the basis of the ventral fin margin of the European silver eel Anguilla anguilla was 100%. The retention of the alcian blue spots on the belly was 84% after 1 day, but decreased to 68% by the end of the experiment (after 183 days). Marking-induced mortality was 0% for both marking types over the complete trial period. 相似文献

The effect of visible implant elastomer (VIE) tagging on the immediate physiological stress response was tested in female three‐spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus, using non‐invasive waterborne cortisol analysis. Post‐tagging cortisol levels were significantly higher compared with pretreatment baseline concentrations; however, when comparing post‐tagging cortisol levels with cortisol levels after exposure to a simulated aerial predator, no significant differences were found. This study indicates that VIE tagging elicits a physiological stress response similar to those occurring in the everyday lives of this important biological model organism. 相似文献

- Advances in individual marking methods have facilitated detailed studies of animal populations and behavior as they allow tracking of individuals through time and space. Hemimetabolous insects, representing a wide range of commonly used model organisms, present a unique challenge to individual marking as they are not only generally small‐bodied, but also molt throughout development, meaning that traditional surface marks are not persistent.
- Visible implant elastomer (VIE) offers a potential solution as small amounts of the inert polymer can be implanted under the skin or cuticle of an animal. VIE has proved useful for individually marking fish, crustaceans, and amphibians in both field and laboratory studies and has recently been successfully trialed in laboratory populations of worms and fly larvae. We trialed VIE in the single‐piece nesting termite Zootermopsis angusticollis, a small hemimetabolous insect.
- We found that there was no effect of VIE on survival and that marks persisted following molting. However, we found some evidence that marked termites performed less allogrooming and trophallaxis than controls, although effect sizes were very small.
- Our study suggests that VIE is an effective technique for marking small hemimetabolous insects like termites but we advocate that caution is applied, particularly when behavioral observation is important.

Visible implant alpha (VI alpha) tag‐induced changes in mortality and condition, as well as tag retention and readability, were examined during a 4‐week period for juveniles of three fish species: tiger muskellunge Esox masquinongy × Esox lucius (91 ± 7 mm total length, LT, mean ± s.d.), Snake River cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki behnkei (84 ± 8 mm) and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (85 ± 5 mm). Mortality and condition did not differ between tagged fish and control fish for any species and overall tag retention rates were high (92% for E. masquinongy × E. lucius, 91% for O. c. behnkei and 100% for O. mykiss). Short‐term readability of VI alpha tags was low in juvenile E. masquinongy × E. lucius and juvenile O. c. behnkei. Therefore, it is not recommend to use VI alpha tags in juvenile E. masquinongy × E. lucius or juvenile O. c. behnkei for periods >2 weeks, but VI alpha tags seem to be suitable for juvenile O. mykiss for a period of at least 4 weeks. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes), is classified as endangered in the 2010 IUCN Red List and is protected under Irish and European legislation due to a drastic decline in abundance and range over the past century. Mark-recapture methods play a vital role in the process of estimating population size, and in the monitoring and conservation of mobile species. A variety of marking techniques are routinely used in a range of crayfish species for ecological research. The majority of information on the effects of these marking techniques on the physiology of crayfish species focuses on survivability and growth, whereas information is scarce on the effects on crayfish behaviour. This study investigates the behavioural changes of crayfish in reaction to five commonly used marking techniques in laboratory conditions. The marking techniques used were internal and external passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags, visible implant elastomer (VIE) tags, cauterisation and ablation. Effects of marking technique on behaviour were evaluated immediately after marking, and over a 14-day period, on 78 crayfish. Results indicated that the internal passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags negatively affected crayfish behaviour by increasing resting levels. Ablation and cauterisation also increased grooming levels, while marking reduced activity levels in general. These effects on behaviour occurred immediately after marking, but quickly dissipated. These results suggest that the use of internal PIT tags for marking white-clawed crayfish may need to be avoided as increased resting levels could lead to increased exposure out of refuge and predation. This may have a detrimental impact on the welfare and conservation of white-clawed crayfish and also lead to biased population estimates during mark-recapture projects. The remaining marking techniques (external PIT tag, VIE tag, ablation, cauterisation) may be used, as changes in behaviour will not have a detrimental impact and therefore should not lead to biased population estimates. 相似文献

A variety of marking and tagging methods were tested on common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) with the aim of identifying suitable methods for genetic studies in this and other species of carp. Elastomer and Alcian
blue dye marking; Cold and Silver nitrate branding; Floy, Fingerling, Carlin disc and visible implant tags; and fin clipping
were all tested on a range of sizes of common carp (from mean weights of 10–25 g up to 600–800 g). The branding and tagging
methods tested did not give satisfactory retention rates. A combination of elastomer marking and fin clipping was then tested
as a method for strain identification in a growth comparison trial on catla (Catla catla Hamilton) and found to be satisfactory for this purpose. Passive integrated transponders (PIT) tags were used to individually
identify catla of wild or hatchery origin being grown for use as broodstock. These had almost 100% (98.8%) retention rates,
but are expensive compared to most other tagging methods. 相似文献

Many crustaceans are highly exploited fisheries species, but determining the population parameters of these animals via mark-recapture techniques is problematic, primarily due to tag-loss during moulting of the exoskeleton. Recently developed internal elastomer tags may overcome this challenging problem, since they are completely encased in the tissues beneath the exoskeleton. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of internal elastomer tags in a wild population of painted crayfish (Panulirus versicolor) over an 18-month period. Seventy animals were double-tagged in the abdominal musculature, with individuality obtained using different combinations of tag colour and tag location. Forty individuals were recaptured after 6, 12 and (or) 18 months, giving an overall recapture rate of 57%. Annual tag retention was estimated to be 98%, since only one instance of tag-loss was observed, despite numerous episodes of moulting among tagged individuals. The majority of tags (95%) were easily visible, even after 18 months at liberty. Nonetheless, small reductions in tag condition were observed after the first six months (mostly due to fading and [or] fragmentation), but this did not interfere with overall tag readability. Tag condition did not decline in the following 12 months, nor did it vary with gender or tag location. It is concluded that internal elastomer tags are an effective method for marking wild crayfish over long-term periods. Given the durability of elastomer, and the capacity for individual identification of large numbers of animals, such tags may be suitable for commercial-scale fishery applications. 相似文献

Bloater Coregonus hoyi (n = 48) were implanted with V9DT-2x predation transmitters and monitored on 105 acoustic receivers in eastern Lake Ontario for >6 months. Twenty-three predation events were observed, with predator retention of tags ranging from ≤1 to ≥194 days and 30% of retentions lasting >150 days. Long tag retention times raise concerns for acoustic telemetry analysis and the health of piscivorous predators retaining tags. 相似文献

Artificial marking and tagging techniques have been used to study movement, population dynamics, behaviour, ecology, survival and growth of at least 25 syngnathid species. External necklace-style tags and injection of visible implant elastomer have been the most used techniques, uniquely identifying hundreds of individual syngnathids to study population dynamics, mortality, behaviour, ecology and growth in at least 13 and 12 species, respectively. Only two studies, both on larger syngnathid species, have tested the use of internal or electronic tags. This new case study reveals that dummy tags, weighing up to 6% of individual body mass, have minimal effect on normal ex situ behaviour of the long-snouted seahorse Hippocampus guttulatus, a smaller syngnathid. In paired aquarium trials, tags did not affect movement, holdfast use or general behavioural state, and only had a short-term effect (1 day) on vertical orientation. Tagged H. guttulatus gained more mass during the 5 day trials, a result which warrants further exploration but indicates that tags did not reduce feeding. This study shows promise for using electronic tagging to study H. guttulatus and similarly sized syngnathids in the wild. 相似文献

Bone regeneration within a coralline hydroxyapatite implant. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
R E Holmes 《Plastic and reconstructive surgery》1979,63(5):626-633
The hypothesis that incomplete resorption of osteons in an autogenous cortical bone graft may limit its replacement by new bone regeneration was explored by implanting a hydroxyapatite replica of a coral skeletal structure into bone gaps. This implant contained channels and interconnections similar to those in osteon-evacuated bone grafts. In 6 implanted mandibular defects in dogs, two of which were examined at two, 4, and 6 months, 11 percent, 46 percent, and 88 percent of the implant areas were filled with regenerated bone. The regenerated bone was a woven type at two months, but changed to a lamellar type by 6 months. In two implanted defects examined at 12 months, biodegradation of 29 percent of the implant had occurred. The bone regeneration was physiological, the implant was biocompatible, and the biodegradation began after the bone had regenerated. 相似文献
