Pikeperch and perch perform seasonal migrations between the Curonian Lagoon and the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea. The Curonian Lagoon is a freshwater basin, while salinity in the coastal waters varies between of 4.9–6.8 psu. In the Curonian Lagoon water temperature is generally higher than in the coastal waters. Field studies of growth and condition characteristics of pikeperch and perch were carried out in these water bodies with the aim to estimate growth differences of the two fish species under different salinity and temperature conditions. Additionally, an experimental study of the impact of salinity on the growth of perch young-of-the-year (YOY) was performed to test the hypothesis that a brackish environment positively influences percids. Field observations revealed that body length, condition factor, fatness coefficient and fat content in muscles were significantly higher in individuals inhabiting the cooler, brackish waters of the Baltic Sea than in individuals inhabiting the Curonian Lagoon. A positive effect of low salinity on growth was also established in the experimental study. Hence, the study results suggest that under certain temperature conditions, brackish waters beneficially affect the growth of pikeperch and perch. 相似文献

Sulfate reduction, methanogenesis, and methane oxidation in the upper sediments of the Vistula and Curonian Lagoons, Baltic Sea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
N. V. Pimenov M. O. Ul’yanova T. A. Kanapatskii I. N. Mitskevich I. I. Rusanov P. A. Sigalevich I. A. Nemirovskaya V. V. Sivkov 《Microbiology》2013,82(2):224-233
Microbiological, biogeochemical, and isotope geochemical investigations of the upper sediments of the Vistula and Curonian lagoons, Baltic Sea, were carried out. High content of organic matter in the sediments was responsible for the high numbers (over 1010 cells cm?3) and activity of heterotrophic microorganisms. The calculated integral rates of dark CO2 assimilation for the upper 30 cm of the sediments varied 12.5 to 38.8 mmol m?2 day?1 and were somewhat higher in the Curonian Lagoon than in the Vistula Lagoon. Integral rates of sulfate reduction were higher in the more saline Vistula Lagoon. Rapid consumption of sulfates of the pore water resulted in intensified methanogenesis, with significantly higher rates detected in the silts of the Curonian Lagoon. High rates of methanogenesis in the Curonian Lagoon correlated with higher methane levels in its upper sediments and near-bottom water. The highest rates of methane oxidation were detected in the uppermost sediment horizons (oxidized or slightly reduced), which was an indication of the barrier role of aerobic methanotrophic bacteria. The calculated methane flows from the sediments into the water column were 0.45 and 0.007 mmol m?2 day?1 for the Vistula and Curonian Lagoons, respectively. Low methane flow from the sediments of the Curonian Lagoon resulted probably from the specific weather (wind) conditions during sampling. The near-stormy conditions in the Curonian Lagoon caused sediment detachment, resulting in methane release into the water column. 相似文献

In the Vistula and Curonian lagoons, respectively, 7 and 9 taxa of under-ice zooplankton have been recorded. Copepoda and rotifera were dominant. Throughout the year, the complex of dominant species was generally constant in the Vistula Lagoon and changed considerably in the Curonian Lagoon. The zooplankton accumulation was found in the surface layer in the Curonian Lagoon, which was due to favorable oxygen conditions and phytoplankton accumulation under the ice. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to delineate the spatial zonation of the Curonian Lagoon based on the hydraulic regime and the sediment
characteristics. A finite element hydrodynamic model has been applied to the Curonian Lagoon to simulate the circulation patterns
for three years. With the help of a transport diffusion model the salinity distribution and the residence times of the Curonian
Lagoon have been investigated when forced by river runoff and by wind. The finite element method permitted to follow the details
of bathymetry and morphology of the lagoon, describing the areas of special interest with higher resolution. The hydrodynamic
model has been validated using in situ water level and salinity measurements. A statistical GIS analysis of the bottom sediment
characteristics and the modeled residence times and salinity distribution led to a synthetic hydraulic regime-based zonation
scheme. The derived classification scheme is of crucial value for understanding the renewal capacity and biota distribution
patterns in the lagoon.

The restoration of the Atlantic sturgeon Acipenser oxyrinchus in Lithuania started in 2011. Two rivers (Neris and ?ventoji) were chosen for reintroduction in the Nemunas river basin based on historical data and ecological conditions. Since 2011, more than 116 thousand of sturgeon juveniles have been stocked in Lithuania. In order to achieve successful population restoration, it is vital to evaluate the efficiency of performed artificial stocking. Analysis of post‐stocking survival, migration patterns, predation pressure, fisheries‐related mortality and possible aggregation zones are all important to understand the main threats and prepare possible mitigation measures necessary for population establishment during the initial phase of restoration. Therefore, conventional and radio tagging studies were performed during the initial restoration phase in Lithuania. Atlantic sturgeon downstream migration was divergent in summer and appeared to have no significant associations with fish size, river quality or hydrophysical parameters, but in autumn migration speed and even survival in small rivers seemed to depend on flow velocity and water discharge. The distribution of recaptured tagged juveniles coincided with dominant currents in the Curonian Lagoon and Baltic Sea. Some tagged specimens migrated long distances, with two sturgeons from Lithuania being caught in Estonian and Finnish territorial waters at up to 800 km from their release site. Tag recapture analysis and mortality rate of tagged fish clearly indicate that annual fisheries‐related mortality exceeds the required threshold of 5% for population establishment. High survival in rivers indicates that the main threat for a successful sturgeon reintroduction program is commercial fishing in the Curonian Lagoon and Baltic Sea coastal zone. 相似文献

Virulence and molecular typing of Vibrio harveyi strains isolated from cultured dentex,gilthead sea bream and European sea bass 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Pujalte MJ Sitjà-Bobadilla A Macián MC Belloch C Alvarez-Pellitero P Pérez-Sánchez J Uruburu F Garay E 《Systematic and applied microbiology》2003,26(2):284-292
Vibrio harveyi was isolated from internal organs or ulcers of diseased and apparently healthy gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) and European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) cultured in several fish farms located on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. The prevalence of the bacterium was significantly higher in European sea bass than in gilthead sea bream, and was closely related to the season in both fish species, occurring almost exclusively on warm months (June to November). After phenotypic characterization, a selection of forty five isolates from gilthead sea bream, sea bass, and several isolates previously obtained from common dentex (Dentex dentex) of the same area, were molecularly typed by automated ribotyping and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Cluster analysis of data established 8 RAPD types and 13 ribotypes among wild isolates, and the combination of both techniques allowed to define fourteen different groups and a clear discrimination of all outbreaks and samplings. Several strains isolated from diseased gilthead sea bream and sea bass and also from asymptomatic sea bream, were tested for virulence in both fish species by intracoelomic injection. All the isolates (11) were pathogenic for sea bass, with nine out of the eleven LD50 values ranging from 1.5 x 10(5) to 1.6 x 10(6) cfu/fish. Gilthead sea bream was unaffected by the seven tested strains, even by those more virulent for sea bass, and only one strain caused a 10% mortality at 4.2 x 10(7) cfu/fish. This is the first report on virulence of V. harveyi for sea bass. 相似文献

Escapement success and migration patterns of silver eels Anguilla anguilla (L.) was studied by acoustic telemetry in three natural free‐flowing and one dammed river and in Curonian Lagoon in Lithuania. Mean downstream migration speed and escapement success were almost the same in the shorter 210 km dammed river (52%, 13.6 km/day) and the considerably longer 300–480 km free‐flowing rivers (53%, 10.7 km/day). Despite the similarity between migration speed in the Curonian Lagoon (14.6 km/day) to that in rivers, migration success was significantly higher (71%) in the Lagoon. Although a majority of silver eels in Lithuania start migrating downstream in spring, the peak of eel migration into the Baltic Sea was observed during late fall. Overall migration success in the rivers and the Lagoon was 35%. Relatively low escapement may have negative consequences on the success on eel stock restoration and must be addressed when strategically planning for the production of spawners. 相似文献

Lympholeukemia has been occurring to an epizootic extent with mass mortality in 1 and 2 yr old madai (= Japanese red sea bream) Pagrus major in the winter season (October-May) in the western regions of Japan since 1975. Diseased fish displayed severe anemia and markedly increased numbers of neoplastic lymphocytoid and lymphoblastoid cells in the blood. Neoplastic cells originated in the splenic lymphatic cells and systemically caused severe metastatic lesions in the heart, liver, kidney, digestive tracts, gills and the lateral musculature. Electron microscopy revealed adeno-like viral particles (78 to 83 nm in diameter) in the nucleus of lymphoblastoid cells which appeared in the early prevalent stage but no viral particles in the lymphocytoid cells or plasmacytoid cells, which subsequently increased in number. In this paper, we describe light and electron microscopic features of neoplasms and neoplastic cells. 相似文献

The amount of ultraviolet (UV)-B radiation reaching the sea surface has increased due to ozone depletion. Several laboratory studies have highlighted the negative impacts of UV radiation on fish using hatchery-reared specimens. However, potential differences in UV tolerance between wild and hatchery-reared fish have been given little consideration. Wild and reared juveniles of red sea bream and black sea bream were exposed to one of four different UV-B radiation levels (1.8; 1.1; 0.4; 0?W/m2) for 4?h. Survival rate was measured every 2?h for a period of 24?h (red sea bream) or 48?h (black sea bream) following exposure. Wild and reared juvenile red sea bream were characterized by similar survival rate, with survival declining to almost 0?% 24?h after exposure at the 1.1 and 1.8?W/m2 levels. In black sea bream, wild individuals showed significantly higher survival than reared fish in levels 1.1 and 1.8?W/m2. Melanophore density was also measured since melanin absorbs UV radiation. Wild black sea bream showed higher melanophore density compared to reared individuals, while no such difference was observed in red sea bream. We conclude that wild black sea bream juveniles acquire higher UV tolerance partly by increasing melanophore density through exposure to UV radiation. Our results indicate that the predicted impacts of UV radiation on fish populations solely based on experimentation with hatchery-reared specimens may be overestimated for some species. 相似文献

Changes have been studied in space and time in the proportion of dead individuals in the zooplankton of the Curonian Lagoon.
Dead individuals were found in the populations of all dominant invertebrate species. Their proportion was shown to increase
during “hyperbloom” by a factor of 5 to 6. In the vegetation period without algal hyperbloom (2007), the dead individuals
accounted on average for 1.9 ± 0.7% of the total abundance and 1.7 ± 0.8% of the total biomass of zooplankton; in the vegetation
period with hyperbloom (2008), their proportion increased to 6.7 ± 3.0% and 5.9 ± 2.5%, respectively. Differences in sensitivity
to bloom of Cianobacteria have been revealed in hydrobionts from different groups. Cladocera and nauplial Copepoda are the
most sensitive groups; Cyclopoida is the least sensitive. The highest proportion of dead individuals was recorded in the most
eutophicated and polluted part of the lagoon. It is suggested that parameters of zooplankton mortality be used for estimating
the ecological state of the Curonian Lagoon. 相似文献

A total of 360 randomly selected specimens of Clarias gariepinus (Clariidae) recovered from Lekki Lagoon were examined for intestinal helminth parasites. Parasite prevalence and worm burden were low; 17 (4.72%) of the specimens examined were infected with gastrointestinal helminths. The helminth worms recovered include, three cestodes Polyonchobothrium clarias, Stocksia pujehuni and Wenyonia acuminata and a nematode, Paracamallanus cyathopharynx. There was no statistically significant difference in the infection of the male and female Clarias gariepinus; the infection rates in male and female samples were 5.75% and 3.76% respectively. Parasite prevalence was related to the length and weight of the specimens. The fish samples were observed to show negative allometric growth and smaller samples recorded higher helminth infection. 相似文献

It is shown that the cytogenetic structure of the Chironomus plumosus (L.) population in the Curonian Lagoon has not changed significantly over the last three decades. The existing cytogenetic
structure supported not only population survival, but also its proliferation in new environmental conditions caused by an
increase of the trophic status of the water body. The predominance of homozygotes pluB2.2 was marked in karyofund. Both the
oxygen deficiency periodically occurring in the Curonian Lagoon and the fact that the population dwells at the periphery of
the species areal in the Palearctic could be reasons for this phenomenon. 相似文献

In the last decennia eutrophication has caused a shift in the species composition of fish communities in Dutch fresh waters. The changes have led to the disappearance of vegetation in lakes and ponds; zooplankton and chironomids are now the most abundant food organisms for fish. In the turbid, open waters bream and pikeperch are the dominant fish species. Only small bream is vulnerable to predation, but because bream grows much faster than the other cyprinids the time span in which the fish is vulnerable is the shortest. The large bream (>20 cm) can coexist with pikeperch since it is not vulnerable to predation and still utilizes the food organisms efficiently. Eutrophication is accelerated if both bream populations are composed of small-sized specimens preventing large-sized zooplankton to develop, and if they are composed of large-sized individuals which can efficiently stir up the bottom sediments. 相似文献

Exocrine pancreatic neoplasms developed in the guppy Poecilia reticulata following exposure to the direct-acting carcinogen methylazoxymethanol acetate (MAM-Ac). Fish 6 to 10 d old were exposed to nominal, non-toxic concentrations of 4 and 10 mg MAM-Ac l(-1) for 2 h and then transferred to carcinogen-free water for grow-out. Whole specimens were sampled monthly up to 9 mo post-exposure to follow the histologic progression of the lesions. No neoplasms occurred in 119 control specimens examined. Pancreatic acinar cell adenomas and carcinomas occurred in 42 of 243 (17%) of the specimens exposed to MAM-Ac. As in earlier studies, specimens exposed to the low MAM-Ac concentration exhibited a higher pancreatic neoplasm incidence (27.8%) than those exposed to the high concentration (7.8%). Acinar cell adenomas accounted for 27 of the 42 neoplasms. Adenomas exhibited a high degree of acinar cell differentiation and some contained foci of atypical acinar cells that were less differentiated and more basophilic than were surrounding adenoma cells. Carcinomas occurred in 15 specimens and exhibited a range of cellular patterns. Although no distant metastases were found, carcinomas tended to invade neighboring tissues and organs. The occurrence of carcinogen-induced pancreatic neoplasms in guppies strengthens the usefulness of small fish species in carcinogen testing and provides an additional model for studying pancreatic neoplasia. 相似文献

The results of laboratory experiments on studying the characteristics of feeding of natural populations of Daphnia galeata from the freshwater Curonian Lagoon on cyanobacteria using the counting and radioisotope methods are discussed. The consumption and assimilation of the cyanobacterium Aphanizomenon flos-aquae by Daphnia have been revealed, as has the inhibition of feeding in Daphnia by species of the genus Microcystis. The results of PCR analysis of the total DNA of plankton from the Curonian Lagoon and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay have proved the ability of Microcystis populations to produce microcystins, while no genes involved in the synthesis of cyanotoxins have been found in A. flos-aquae. 相似文献

The present study describes some aspects of the life history of Boyer's sand smelt Atherina boyeri in the hypersaline Bardawil Lagoon on the Mediterranean coast of the Sinai peninsula, Egypt. Monthly samples were collected with a small-mesh experimental beach-seine during the years 1973–1974. Age determinations were based on otoliths readings and length frequency distributions which indicate that the Bardawil Lagoon population consists mostly of 0-age group. The largest recorded fish was 63 mm in standard length (S.L.). Length-weight relationship has been calculated as: W = 13.7 × 10−6 × L 2.93 where W = weight (g) and L =S.L. (mm). Atherina boyeri mature at the length of 34 mm. Spawning takes place from March to September. The average number of eggs in the ovary of a ripe female at the beginning of the spawning season was found to be 522. Females of all sizes were more numerous than males. In immature fish, less than 34 mm long, females constituted 53% of the population. In larger fish the number of females was higher; in fish over 34 mm long females constituted 64% and in fish over 51 mm—96%. Atherina boyeri in the Bardawil Lagoon feeds on both zoobenthos and zooplankton, mainly amphipods and copepods. Polychaetes, mysidaceans, insects and fish were also represented. Atherina boyeri is the host of endoparasitic Trematoda, Acanthocephala and Nematoda. The examined fish were found to have metacercaria in their mesenteries and liver. 相似文献

Data on the occurrence of skin ulceration cases and concentrations of anthropogenic contaminants (PCBs; DDT; PAN; and heavy
metals Hg, Pb, As, and Cd) in Baltic cod in the Russian exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of the southeastern part of the Baltic
Sea are presented and an attempt is made to analyze the relationship between the prevalence of disease and contaminant concentrations.
In 2005–2009 the prevalence of skin ulcers was 0.7%. The share of skin ulceration in fish was maximal in 3- and 6-year-old
cod (1.0 and 1.1%, correspondingly) and in fish of the size group 39–45 cm (0.9%). Since 2007, a reduction of skin ulceration
cases has been recorded in the Russian EEZ of the southern Baltic Sea. In 2005–2009, the concentration of contaminants in
cod tissues did not exceed the permissible levels accepted in the Russian Federation. The relationship between the concentration
of PCBs in skin and the prevalence of ulceration cases requires further studies. 相似文献

The distribution of the cestode Caryophyllaeides fennica in populations of the ide, roach, white bream and bream from the Rybinsk reservoir has been analyzed in regard to fish age. The relative abundance of C. fennica in populations of each host species was calculated as product of the helminthes abundance by the fish number in age groups. The highest prevalence and abundance of cestodes was found in the ide. All age classes of this species were infected, with the maximum in fishes of the age 3+ ... 5+. The roach is infected with C. fennica till only 10-year age; brean is infected till the age 4+. In the white bream C. fennica is an occasional parasite. The cestode number among hosts was as follows: bream--68%; roach--26%, ide--5%, white bream--1%. Different approaches to the estimation of the parasite abundance distribution among several host species (in terms of mean prevalence and intensity of the relative abundance of parasites) are discussed. 相似文献

The data on age, size, and sex structure of the population, on the linear and weight growth of bream Abramis brama are generalized for the period of 1954–2007 in Rybinsk Reservoir. Analysis of dynamics of these parameters demonstrated that
recently a high fishing intensity is both reflected on the size of the stock but also determines the changes in structural
parameters of the bream population. At present, in the exploited stock of bream, the specimens of junior ages dominate. The
part of specimens older than ten years, which previously made the bulk of catches, now compose not more than 10–15%. This
resulted in a rather noticeable decrease of mean age and size in catches. The previously observed sex ratio, near 1: 1, shifted
towards a significant prevalence of males. The age of the first spawning and of the fish spawning for the first time decreased.
These changes indicate that the fishing load surpasses adaptational potential of bream. 相似文献

Brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus is used as indicator species for contaminant effects at areas of concern (AOC) in the Great Lakes and other areas. One of the beneficial use impairments at numerous AOC is 'fish tumors and other deformities'. An impairment occurs when the prevalence of fish tumors and other deformities exceeds those at unimpacted or control sites or when survey data confirm the presence of neoplastic or preneoplastic liver lesions in bullhead or white sucker Catostomus commersonii. Numerous surveys have been conducted over the years assessing neoplasia in these fishes, both liver and skin tumors. However, a major problem in comparing the results has been a lack of consistent criteria for evaluating histological changes in bullhead livers. As individual AOC develop and implement remedial action plans, realistic and attainable delisting targets need to be specified. For this to occur and be consistent from site to site there must be standardization of the criteria being used to evaluate specific impairments. In this report, specific diagnostic criteria are provided for both non-neoplastic and neoplastic proliferative hepatocellular and biliary lesions. These criteria should assist fish pathologists in describing and categorizing proliferative liver lesions from brown bullhead. 相似文献
