Effects of particle size, fish size and temperature on the filtration rate of silver carp were determined. When feeding at 20°C on zooplankton and spherical particles (yeast, micronic beads and pollen), 32-g silver carp filter particles larger than 70 urn at a maximum rate of 18.251 h−1 . For particles smaller than 70 μm, filtration rates decrease with decreasing particle size until there is no measured filtration for particles smaller than 10 μm. Filtering rates ( FR ) for particles between 10 and 50 μm are described by the equation, FR =−20.8 + 21.7 × log particle diameter. Filtration rates rise as fish size, particle size and temperature increase. Filtration rates per unit biomass, however, fall as fish size increases: FR = 1.54 W0.713 , where FR is the maximum filtration rate in 1 h 1 fish 1 and W is weight of fish in grammes. The results of these trials are consistent with the hypothesis that particle selection by silver carp is a mechanical, passive function of gill raker morphology. 相似文献

Abstract Cell volume, carbon and nitrogen content were determined for bacteria grown in batch cultures in water samples collected at five localities in western Florida, USA. Cultures were set up by inoculating 0.2 μm filtered water with 2.5 to 7.0% of 1.0 μm filtered water. Biovolumes of the bacteria were measured by epifluorescence photomicrography. Bacterial carbon and nitrogen contents were determined with a CHN analyser. During incubations, bacterial volumes doubled from 0.070±0.037 μ m3 (mean ± S.E.) to 0.153 ± 0.036 μ m3 at early stationary phase. Bacterial C:N ratios ranged between 2.8 and 10.3, with a mean of 6.5, and were inversely correlated with cell volumes. Conversion factors for volume to carbon and nitrogen content were relatively high and variable, ranging from 0.21 to 161 pg C μm−3 (mean: 0.72 pg C μm−3 ) and from 0.05 to 0.25 pg N μm−3 (mean: 0.12 pg N μm−3 ). Small cells contained more C and N per unit volume than did large cells. The data suggested that biovolume to biomass conversion factors may be higher than previously thought and may be highly variable both temporally and geographically. 相似文献

SUMMARY. The concentrations of trace metals in filtered and unfiltered lake water were measured using anodic stripping voltammetry, before and after digestion by ultra-violet irradiation, and by atomic absorption spectroscopy with electrothermal atomization. Total soluble components were estimated to be: zinc, 2.1 μg 1−1 ; cadmium, <0.05 μg l−1 ; lead, <(0.1 μg l−1 and copper, 0.3 μg 1−1 . Atomic absorption spectrophotometric results and u.v.-digested, anodic stripping voltammetric results were in good agreement. All measurable zinc was electrochemically labile whereas copper above the detection limit of 0.09 μg l−1 was electrochemically inert. 相似文献

Heterotrophic bacterioplankton production and grazing mortality rates in an Ethiopian rift-valley lake (Awassa) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
SUMMARY. 1. Heterotrophic bacterioplankton growth and production rates were estimated in a tropical lake by various methods. Mean growth rates, determined by tritiated thymidine incoporation into DNA, frequency of dividing cells and increase in cell density varied between 0.013 and 0.014 (with a range of 0.006–0.026) h−1 corresponding to bacterial production of 1.16–1.22 (0.34–3.63) mg C m−3 h−1 .
2. Heterotrophic bacterial production estimated from oxygen and inorganic carbon consumption in the dark were compared with these values. The oxygen method gave similar results, while values from dark carbon uptake were as much as 2.5 times higher.
3. Although the different estimates of rates of bacterial production showed different patterns, the existence of spatial (vertical) and temporal (diel and seasonal) variation was demonstrated. Bacterial production was 13–41% of the net primary production and 10–30% of gross primary production.
4. Bacterial grazing mortality rate was estimated from size-fractionation and metablic inhibitor experiments. Average grazing rates were between 0.34 and 3.77 mg C m−3 h−1 corresponding to 76–120% of the mean bacterial production rate. Organisms 1–12 μm in size, possibly mainly ciliates. were implicated as important bacterial grazers. 相似文献

The balance between photosynthesis and grazing in Antarctic mixotrophic cryptophytes during summer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
SUMMARY 1. Grazing and photosynthetic contributions to the carbon balance of planktonic, mixotrophic cryptophytes in Lakes Fryxell and Hoare in the Taylor Valley, Antarctica were measured during November and December 2000.
2. The cryptophytes never became entirely photosynthetic, although carbon derived from grazing decreased in December. Individual grazing rates ranged between 5.28 and 10.08 bacteria cell−1 day−1 in Lake Fryxell and 0.36–11.76 bacteria cell−1 day−1 in Lake Hoare. Grazing rates varied temporally and with depth in the water column. In Lake Fryxell, which is a meromictic lake, highest grazing occurred just above the chemocline. Individual photosynthetic rates ranged from 0.23 to 1.35 pg C cell−1 h−1 in Lake Fryxell and 0.074 to 1.08 pg C cell−1 h−1 in Lake Hoare.
3. Carbon acquisition by the cryptophyte community gained through grazing ranged between 8 and 31% during November in Lake Fryxell, dropping to between 2 and 24% in December. In Lake Hoare grazing contributed 12–21% of the community carbon budget in November and 1–28% in December. Around 4% of the carbon acquired from grazing and photosynthesis was remineralised through respiration.
4. Mixotrophy is probably a major survival strategy for cryptophytes in the extreme lakes of the Dry Valleys, because perennial ice-cover severely limits light penetration to the water column, whereas these phytoflagellates are not normally mixotrophic in lower latitude lakes. The evidence suggests that mixotrophy may be a mechanism for supplementing the carbon budget, as well as a means of acquiring nutrients for growth. 相似文献

The relative importance of algae and bacteria as food for Daphnia longispina (Cladocera) in a polyhumic lake 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
PAULA KANKAALA 《Freshwater Biology》1988,19(3):285-296
SUMMARY. 1. Grazing on algae and bacteria by the planktonic cladoceran, Daphnia longispina , was studied in a small polyhumic lake with low phytoplankton primary production in southern Finland.
2. D. longispina filtered algae at average rates of 0.09-0.82 ml ind−1 h−1 . The filtering rates on bacteria were 26-92% of those on algae in parallel experiments.
3. From June to August algae, including mixotrophic and heterotrophic forms, comprised 56-93% of the food ingested by D. longispina. In mid-September and early October, when the Daphnia population was declining and the algal biomass was low, bacteria comprised 73% and 55% respectively of the food of Daphnia.
4. For D. longispina , an energy pathway via bacteria and bactivorous flagellates is probably a more important link to allochthonous organic matter than direct utilization of epilimnetic bacteria. 相似文献

1. Bacterial production in the 0–30 m water column of Loch Ness was measured using a dual labelling procedure with [3 H] thymidine and [14 C] leucine between May 1993 and June 1994. In most cases the uptake of the two labels did not covary, suggesting unbalanced growth. Rates of bacterial production varied from undetectable to 46.2 μg C l–1 day–1 . Highest production coincided with the period of highest primary production, but carbon derived from this source was insufficient to meet the bacterial carbon demand, which was met by allochthonous humic inputs to the system.
2. Heterotrophic flagellate (HNAN) grazing rates, measured using fluorescently labelled bacteria, ranged between 10.3 and 24.5 bacteria cell–1 day–1 at temperatures between 5 and 15 °C. They removed up to 27% of the bacterial production per day.
3. Heterotrophic flagellate specific growth rates ranged from 0.043 to 0.093 h–1 between 5 and 15 °C, giving generation times of 7.4–16.1 h.

Abstract A method proposed for estimating the rate of bacterial mortality in aquatic environments consists in following the disappearance of radioactive tracer from the macromolecular fraction of 3 H-thymidine labeled natural assemblages of bacteria. The data presented in this paper offer a further technical validation of this procedure. Application of the method to North and Mediterranean Sea, estuaries, rivers and lakes yields first order mortality constant in the range 0.008–0.06 h−1 . Mortality due to grazing by protozoans retained by 2 μm filtration range from 20 to 90% of the mortality detected by the method. 相似文献

Abstract Size-selective grazing by Cyclidium sp., isolated as a dominant ciliate bacterivore from the Římov Reservoir (South Bohemia), was examined using fluorescent labelled bacteria (FLB) produced from natural bacterioplankton or pure bacterial cultures. Sizes of ingested bacteria in food vacuoles were measured directly. Three experimental arrangements were used: (1) Ciliates were grown on the pure culture of Alcaligenes xylosoxidans and fed with various proportions of ‘large’ and ‘small’ FLB (mean biovolume, 0.377 and 0.202 μm3 , respectively) prepared from the same bacterial species. Results clearly showed significant selection of larger bacteria. (2) Ciliates were grown on natural bacterioplankton from the reservoir and subsequently fed on FLB prepared from the reservoir bacterioplankton (mean biovolume, 0.065 μm3 ). Independent of either prey or predator abundance, larger FLB (> 0.100 μ m3 , and especially those > 0.200 μ m3 ) were ingested with much higher frequency than their occurrence i the natural assemblage. (3) Ciliates were grown on the reservoir baterioplankton and fed by FLB prepared from the culture of Pseudomonas sp. In contrast with previous results, no size selection of the ciliate was found when FLB were different from the bacterial food used to grow the ciliate. Ecological impacts of size-selective bacterivory are suggested. 相似文献

3. Diaphanosoma brachyurum (Liévin). Daphnia cucullata Sars. and Daphnia galeata Sars grazed free bacteria more quickly than aggregates, but Endiaptomus gracilis (Sars), Chydorus sphaericus Müll. and Bosmi- na coregoni s.l. Baird grazed the aggregates more readily.
4. Filtering rate determinations varied from LA to 123 μl ind.−1 h − 1 for various species. 相似文献

Spirogyra Link (1820) is an anabranched filamentous green alga that forms free-floating mats in shallow waters. It occurs widely in static waters such as ponds and ditches, sheltered littoral areas of lakes, and stow-flowing streams. Field observations of its seasonal distribution suggest that the 70-μm-wide filament form of Spirogyra should have a cool temperature and high irradiance optimum for net photosynthesis. Measurements of net photosynthesis and respiration were marie at 58 combinations of tight and temperature in a controlled environment facility. Optimum conditions were 25°C and 1500 μmol photons m−2 s−1 , at which net photosynthesis averaged 75.7 mg O2 gdm−1 h−1 . Net photosynthesis was positive at temperatures from 5° to 35°C at most irradiances except at combinations of extremely low irradiances and high temperatures (7 and 23 μmol photons m−2 s−1 at 30°C and 7, 23, and 35 μmol photons m−2 s−1 at 35°C). Respiration rates increased with both temperature and prior irradiance. Light-enhanced respiration rates were significantly greater than dark respiration rates following irradiances of 750 μmol photons m−2 s−1 or greater. Polynomials were fitted to the data to generate response surfaces; such response surfaces can be used to represent net photosynthesis and respiration in ecological models. The data indicate that the alga can tolerate the cool water and high irradiances characteristic of early spring but cannot maintain positive net photosynthesis under conditions of high temperature and low light (e.g. when exposed to self-shading ). 相似文献

The importance of the littoral epiphyton as food for commercial fish in the recent African man-made lake, Nyumba ya Mungu reservoir, Tanzania 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PATRICK DENNY DAVID W. BOWKER ROLAND G. BAILEY 《Biological journal of the Linnean Society. Linnean Society of London》1978,10(1):139-150
Nyumba ya Mungu reservoir is a man-made lake in the Kilimanjaro region of northern Tanzania. The commercial fisheries are principally based on the cichlids, Sarotherodon pangani Lowe, S. jipe Lowe, S. esculentus Graham, and Tilapia rendalli Boulenger.
Examination of gut contents revealed that the dominant species, S. pangani and S. jipe , fed on the epiphyton attached to the vegetation in the littoral zone, S. esculentus was a phytoplankton filter feeder, and T. rendalli consumed macrophytes and associated epiphytes.
A fish exclosure quantitatively demonstrated that the epiphyton community was appreciably depleted by the grazing of fish. After 35 days the mean epiphyton density on the submerged surfaces of Cyperus articulatus L. within the exclosure was 285 times 103 individuals cm-2 shoot, but only 181 times 103 individuals cm-2 shoot on grazed surfaces outside the exclosure. The differences were statistically significant, and corresponded to a difference in biomass of about 6.5 g organic dry weight m-2 lake surface. Vertical profiles of periphyton density on Cyperus indicated that fish grazed mainly below a depth of 100 mm from the water surface.
The littoral epiphyton → commercial fish food chain, which may be unique, is considered to predominate in Nyumba ya Mungu, and is compared with the major food chains of commercial fish in some other African natural and man-made lakes. 相似文献

SUMMARY. Dissolved ATP, defined as ATP which passes through 0.2 μm filters, was found in fresh water. During the spring diatom bloom in two eutrophic Danish lakes, concentrations of dissolved ATP varied between 0.1 and 3.8 μgl−1 , constituting 14–76% of the total ATP (particulate plus dissolved ATP). The kinetics of the light emission obtained from mixing firefly enzyme with dissolved ATP demonstrated that the major proportion of the dissolved ATP was in fact ATP. Despite some variations, the seasonal changes in dissolved ATP paralleled the changes in the increasing phytoplankton population during the rise of the diatom blooms. The dissolved ATP increased after the diatom peak, indicating that release of ATP from the phytoplankton due to mortality may be a major source of dissolved ATP.
Consumption of dissolved ATP was evaluated in uptake experiments using3 H-ATP. Rates of uptake of 3 H-ATP by micro-organisms (diameter 0.2–0.6 μm) proved to be close to the rates for 3 H-D-glucose uptake. The variations in 3 H-ATP uptake during the diatom blooms showed non-systematic changes and ranged between 1.0 and 15.8% h−1 (mean = 4.9% h−1 ) of the quantity added. Turnover rates for dissolved ATP varied between 12 and 730 ng l−1 h−1 (mean = 175 ng l−1 ). These rather high rates of turnover suggest that dissolved ATP is an important compound in the metabolism of freshwater bacteria. 相似文献

In contrast to the water column, the fate of bacterial production in freshwater sediments is still a matter of debate. Thus, the importance of virus-induced lysis and protozoan grazing of bacteria was investigated for the first time simultaneously in a silty sediment layer of a mesotrophic oxbow lake. Microcosms were installed in the laboratory in order to study the dynamics of these processes over 15 days. All microbial and physicochemical parameters showed acceptable resemblance to field data observed during a concomitant in situ study, and similar conclusions can be drawn with respect to the quantitative impact of viruses and protozoa on the bacterial compartment. Viral decay rates ranged from undetectable to 0.078 h−1 (average, 0.033 h−1 ), and the control of bacterial production from below the detection limit to 36% (average, 12%). The contribution of virus-induced lysis of bacteria to the dissolved organic matter pool as well as to benthic bacterial nutrition was low. Ingestion rates of protozoan grazers ranged from undetectable to 24.7 bacteria per heterotrophic nanoflagellate (HNF) per hour (average, 4.8 bacteria HNF−1 h−1 ) and from undetectable to 73.3 bacteria per ciliate per hour (average, 11.2 bacteria ciliate−1 h−1 ). Heterotrophic nanoflagellate and ciliates together cropped up to 5% (average, 1%) of bacterial production. The viral impact on bacteria prevailed over protozoan grazing by a factor of 2.5–19.9 (average, 9.5). In sum, these factors together removed up to 36% (average, 12%) of bacterial production. The high number of correlations between viral and protozoan parameters is discussed in view of a possible relationship between virus removal and the presence of protozoan grazers. 相似文献

Membrane filtration and epifluorescent microscopy were used for the rapid enumeration of bacteria in rinses of milking equipment. Rinse solution (10 ml) was filtered through a 0.6 µm pore size Nuclepore membrane filter and the bacteria retained stained with acridine orange. The clump count of orange fluorescing bacteria on the membrane correlated well with the corresponding plate count ( r =0.83). The technique is rapid, taking approximately 10 min, and is sufficiently sensitive to detect 1000 bacteria ml rinse (equivalent to 5 × 103 bacteria/m2 of milking equipment surfaces by the method currently in use). 相似文献

The Lahontan cutthroat trout lives under highly alkaline and saline conditions in Pyramid Lake, Nevada (pH 9.4; 0.2 mmol 1−1 Ca++ ; 7.3 mmol 1−1 Mg++ ). These experiments were conducted to study the possible roles of water Ca++ and Mg++ concentrations on ammonia excretion in the Lahontan cutthroat trout under highly alkaline conditions. The basic protocol of the experiments was to determine ammonia excretion rates during the following three exposure periods (each of 3-h duration) in sequence: (a) in normal lake water; (b) in soft lake water with the divalent cation concentrations reduced; and (c) in the soft lake water with either Ca++ or Mg++ (or no divalent cations added) added back at the appropriate lake water concentration. The soft-water exposure caused a significant reduction in ammonia excretion to about half of the control (original lake water) levels. When either Ca++ or Mg++ was added to the soft water in the third exposure period, the ammonia excretion rates were increased more than twofold back to lake water levels. 相似文献

Filtration stress, consisting in the rapid filtration of Acer pseudoplatanus L. cell suspension cultures, resulted in significant differences between the peroxidases (EC 1.11.1.7) released during cell growth and those released after filtered cells were resuspended in fresh medium (recovery medium). These differences concerned mainly modifications of (i) the pH optimum of peroxidase activity (guaiacol as electron donor), (ii) the number and the pI values of the peroxidase isoenzymes as shown by isoelectric focusing, and (iii) the molecular weights of the different peroxidase fractions determined by gel filtration chromatography. The presence of 1 m M Li+ in the recovery medium inhibited the release of peroxidase and this effect was partially reversed by K+ . The release of peroxidase by stressed cells was also strongly inhibited by Na2 CO3 in the recovery medium. The results presented are consistent with the proposal that the characteristic isoperoxidase patterns induced by filtration stress might be used as a model to study the response of plant cells to stress. 相似文献

Taxonomic composition and biomass of heterotrophic flagellates in relation to lake trophy and season 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
1. Taxonomic composition and abundance of heterotrophic flagellates (HF) were studied in 55 lakes with different trophy in northern Germany using a live-counting technique.
2. Mean abundances and biomasses of HF ranged from 169 cells L−1 and 22 μg L−1 in mesotrophic lakes to 2439 cells mL–1 and 475 μg L−1 in hypertrophic lakes, respectively. Highest values were generally observed in spring, but mesotrophic lakes showed maximum values in early summer.
3. The taxonomic composition of HF was not significantly influenced by lake trophy and season. The major fraction of HF consisted of chrysomonads and Protista incertae sedis; other important groups were choanoflagellates and bicosoecids. The size distribution of HF changed with lake trophy and season, with a higher proportion of large HF (> 10 μm) in hypertrophic lakes and in spring, respectively.
4. Correlation analyses revealed a strong negative impact of cladocerans on total HF biomass and especially on large HF. Ciliates and large bacteria (> 10 μm) were strongly positively correlated with HF biomass; small bacteria (< 2 μm) showed a weak positive correlation.
5. Analyses at the level of species and genera revealed distinct distribution patterns of some taxa. Paraphysomonas , Aulacomonas and Quadricilia as large-bodied HF showed highest abundance in hypertrophic lakes and in spring. Attached taxa (e.g. Monosiga , Salpingoeca amphoridium ) were highly abundant in late summer and autumn, whereas Spumella and Kathablepharis occurred frequently in most samples. 相似文献

Growth and Grazing Rates of the Marine Planktonic Ciliate Strombidinopsis sp. on Red-Tide and Toxic Dinoflagellates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

ABSTRACT We investigated growth and grazing rates of Strombidinopsis sp. when feeding on several species of red-tide and/or toxic dinoflagellates. Strombidinopsis sp. one of the largest aloricate choreotrichs so far reported, grew well on Lingulodinium polyedrum, Gymnodinium sanguineum, Scrippsiella trochoidea, Cochlodinium polykrikoides , and Prorocentrum minimum , but failed to grow on Amphidinium carterae. Specific growth rates of Strombidinopsis sp. increased rapidly with increasing prey density up to ca. 100 ng C ml-1 , but were saturated or increased slightly at higher concentrations. Maximum specific growth rates of Strombidinopsis sp. on various prey species were 1.38 day-1 for C. polykrikoides , 1.27 for G. sanguineum , 1.06 for P. minimum , 0.83 for L. polyedrum , and 0.67 for S. trochoidea. Threshold prey concentrations (where net growth = 0) were 12–38 ng C ml-1 . Maximum ingestion and clearance rates of Strombidinopsis sp. were 353 ng C grazer-1 day-1 and 110 μ, l grazer-1 h-1 , respectively. Strombidinopsis sp. exhibited higher maximum growth, ingestion, and clearance rates than the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Fragilidium cf. mexicanum or the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Protoperidinium cf. divergens and P. crassipes , when grown on the same prey species. In addition, the sequence of prey species arranged according to growth response of Strombidinopsis sp. differed considerably from those of Fragilidium cf. mexicanum, Protoperidinium cf. divergens , and P. crassipes. 相似文献

Continuous and batch cultures of marine sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in North Sea water were irradiated with 110000 to 329500 μWs/cm2 of ultraviolet radiation (wavelength 253.7 nm) with a commercial u.v. sterilizing unit. A 100% kill was obtained with logarithmic cultures of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans NCIMB 8400 at population densities of 10–104 /ml. A >99.99% kill was obtained with a mixture (ca 105 /ml) of batch grown Desulfovibrio spp. and oilfield SRB enrichments. Ultraviolet irradiation was less effective against the indigenous heterotrophic bacteria in the seawater ( ca 90% kill). 相似文献
