This study developed and applied an approach to calculate the proportion of fish gut content composed of mucus secreted by the oropharyngeal cavity and gut. The amount of nitrogen in the contents of the foregut (oesophagus and gizzard) and the epibranchial organs of suspension‐feeding American gizzard shad Dorosoma cepedianum was significantly higher than the nitrogen in the homogeneous food source. Using data collected from suspension‐feeding experiments and the nitrogen content of D. cepedianum mucus, a series of equations illustrated that mucus constituted c. 10% of D. cepedianum foregut content and 12% of epibranchial organ content by dry mass. Future quantification of fish feeding selectivity and absorption efficiency can use this approach to take into account the contribution of fish mucus to the nutrients in the gut contents. This study supports the conclusion that suspension‐feeding D. cepedianum in a heterogeneous environment selectively ingest nutrient‐rich particles, even when gut nutrient content is adjusted to take into account the contribution of mucus. 相似文献

Effect of feeding level and feeding frequency on specific dynamic action in Silurus meridionalis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of feeding level ( F L ; 0·5 to 4% dry diet mass per wet fish body mass) and feeding frequency (once every 4 days to twice per day) on postprandial metabolic response was investigated in southern catfish Silurus meridionalis at 27·5° C. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the specific dynamic action (SDA) coefficient among the groups of different feeding levels ( P > 0·05). The duration increased from 26·0 to 40·0 h and the peak metabolic rate increased from 207·8 to 378·8 mg O2 kg−1 h−1 when the feeding level was increased from 0·5 to 4%. The relationship between the peak metabolic rate ( R P , mg O2 kg−1 h−1 ) and F L could be described as: R P = 175·4 + 47·3 F L ( r 2 = 0·943, n = 40, P < 0·001). The relationship between the SDA duration ( D , h) and F L could be described as D =30·97 F L 0·248 ( r 2 =0·729, n =40, P < 0·001). 相似文献

甲藻的异养营养型 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
综述了甲藻的异养类型。目前已知异养营养型在甲藻中广泛存在,只有很少几种甲藻营严格自养营养方式。有近一半的甲藻物种是没有色素体的,还有很多甲藻即使具有色素体也会有异养营养需求,称为兼养营养类型。这些兼养类群不一定主要以有机物作为其获取碳的来源,而仅仅是补充一些生长必需的有机物如维生素、生物素等。兼养类群以渗透营养和腐食营养方式进行,同时也可以寄生方式和共生方式进行兼养生活。无色素体的甲藻以有机物作为碳的唯一来源,仅仅依靠异养方式生存,属于严格异养营养方式,又称有机营养型。它们是甲藻异养营养型的主体,其主要类型有寄生、渗透营养和吞噬营养。由于吞噬营养是甲藻异养的主要类型,因此论述了3种吞噬营养型:吞噬营养方式、捕食茎营养方式和捕食笼营养方式。吞噬营养方式在无甲类和具甲类甲藻中都有存在,主要通过甲藻细胞的纵沟或底部对猎物进行吞噬,也有研究发现吞噬部位为顶孔或片间带。捕食茎营养方式是通过捕食茎刺穿猎物细胞膜并吸食其细胞质来获取营养,在异养甲藻中也较常见。捕食笼营养方式只在原多甲藻属(Protoperidinium)和翼藻属(Diplopsalis)里发现,是甲藻通过鞭毛孔分泌细胞质到胞外形成捕食笼将猎物包裹并进行消化来摄食的。甲藻摄食对象尺寸范围变化较大,小至几微米,大至几百微米。有些甲藻具有摄食选择性,通过感应猎物释放的化学物质来判断猎物的位置并进行摄食,摄食完成后由于体积的增加经常会发生细胞分裂和蜕鞘。对于甲藻异养的其他形式如拦截摄食营养方式、伪足摄食营养方式、口足摄食营养方式、触手摄食营养方式等只作简单介绍。还就甲藻异养的研究方法、其生态学意义和进化学意义进行简要论述,并对相关研究进行展望。 相似文献

1 The feeding preference of the adult pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) for Betula pendula Roth was studied in no‐choice and paired‐choice feeding experiments. 2 In the first no‐choice test, large quantities of silver birch bark in Petri dishes were consumed; on average, the daily consumption of each weevil was 67 mm2. 3 In the second no‐choice test, the weevils were offered 1‐year‐old silver birch seedlings for 6 days. Initially, the weevils fed mostly on the stem bases; later, they moved upward to feed on other parts of the stems. In addition to the main shoots, scars caused by gnawing were also found on leaf bases, blades, veins and petioles. Feeding resulted in the death of the main stems in 15% of the seedlings. 4 In the paired‐choice tests, the conifers were preferred to silver birch, even though a large amount of silver birch was also consumed in the presence of conifers. 5 In the paired‐choice tests, equal amounts of Scots pine and Norway spruce were always consumed. When hybrid aspen was offered, only small amounts were gnawed. 相似文献

A marine ciliate of the genus Strombidium isolated from a marine rock-pool, was grown bacteriafree in a chemostat continuous culture system and fed on the alga Pavlova (Monochrysis) lutheri Droop, which was also grown in continuous culture. The growth rate of the ciliate was maintained constant whilst the growth rate of the alga was varied, the latter producing little change in its energy content.The specific filtration and ingestion rates of Strombidium were measured and found, in both cases, to vary inversely as a function of the concentration of available algae. The filtration rate showed a range from 2 to 35 μl · ciliate?1 · day?1 whilst the ingestion rate varied from 0.8 to 3.4 J · ciliate?1 · day?1. The efficiency of ingestion remained constant throughout the experiment with a mean of > 91%, the overall growth efficiency also remained constant but with a mean of only 6.5%.The rates and efficiencies are compared with the results obtained by other workers. 相似文献

随着我国近海多种传统经济渔业资源的衰退,六丝钝尾虾虎鱼已成为海州湾等海域的优势鱼种之一,并在海洋食物网中发挥着重要作用。本研究根据2011年和2013—2016年春季和秋季在海州湾及其邻近海域进行的渔业资源底拖网调查,基于线性混合模型研究了海州湾六丝钝尾虾虎鱼的摄食习性以及影响其摄食的主要因素,并对其摄食策略进行分析。结果表明: 海州湾六丝钝尾虾虎鱼以虾类、双壳类、端足类等14个饵料生物类群为食,其中端足类、虾类、双壳类、蛇尾类是其主要的饵料类群。从饵料生物种类来看,六丝钝尾虾虎鱼摄食的饵料种类有37种,优势饵料生物有钩虾、细螯虾、独眼钩虾、彩虹明樱蛤和鲜明鼓虾等。线性混合模型分析表明,海州湾六丝钝尾虾虎鱼的摄食强度受体长、水深、季节、底层盐度的显著影响,其中,摄食强度与水深和底层盐度呈显著负相关关系,而与体长呈显著正相关关系,且春季的摄食强度显著高于秋季。聚类分析表明,以体长70 mm为界,可将六丝钝尾虾虎鱼划分为食性差异较大的两个体长组,其摄食随体长的变化主要与自身摄食能力与饵料生物丰度的变化有关。摄食策略分析表明,六丝钝尾虾虎鱼的营养生态位具有较高的表型间成分,对食物的种内竞争较低。本研究将有助于揭示六丝钝尾虾虎鱼的生活史特征,并为其资源的可持续利用和科学管理提供参考依据。 相似文献

Zooplankton is a morphologically and taxonomically diverse group and includes organisms that vary in size by many orders of magnitude, but they are all faced with the common problem of collecting food from a very dilute suspension. In order to maintain a viable population in the face of mortality, zooplankton in the ocean have to clear daily a volume of ambient water for prey particles that is equivalent to about 106 times their own body volume. While most size‐specific vital rates and mortality rates decline with size, the clearance requirement is largely size‐independent because food availability also declines with size. There is a limited number of solutions to the problem of concentrating dilute prey from a sticky medium: passive and active ambush feeding; feeding‐current feeding, where the prey is either intercepted directly, retained on a filter, or individually perceived and extracted from the feeding current; cruise feeding; and colonization of large particles and marine snow aggregates. The basic mechanics of these food‐collection mechanisms are described, and it is shown that their efficiencies are inherently different and that each of these mechanisms becomes less efficient with increasing size. Mechanisms that compensate for this decline in efficiency are described, including inflation of feeding structures and development of vision. Each feeding mode has implications beyond feeding in terms of risk of encountering predators and chance of meeting mates, and they partly target different types of prey. The main dichotomy is between (inefficient) ambush feeding on motile prey and the more efficient active feeding modes; a secondary dichotomy is between (efficient) hovering and (less efficient) cruising feeding modes. The efficiencies of the various feeding modes are traded off against feeding‐mode‐dependent metabolic expenses, predation risks, and mating chances. The optimality of feeding strategies, evaluated as the ratio of gain over risk, varies with the environment, and may explain both size‐dependent and spatio‐temporal differences in distributions of various feeding types as well as other aspects of the biology of zooplankton (mating behaviour, predator defence strategies). 相似文献

Diel feeding periodicity, daily ration and prey selectivity in juvenile brown trout in a subarctic river 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Feeding of age-1 brown trout Salmo trutta in a third-order river in northern Finland was usually highest in the twilight hours and lowest around midday. Diel periodicity in food intake was less distinct and rarely significant for age-0 trout. Daily rations declined seasonally, being lowest in October, and highest in June (age-1 trout) or early August (age-0 trout). Prey selection did not differ between day and night, but differences between age classes and sampling dates were distinct. Age-0 trout preferred Ephemerella nymphs in summer and Micrasema larvae later in the season. Age-1 trout fed selectively on caddis larvae on all sample dates. Aerial insects and Baetis nymphs were avoided by both age classes on most occasions. These patterns of preference are probably explained by a trend towards epibenthic feeding, which may be a predominant foraging mode in some trout populations. Nevertheless, repuscular peaks in feeding periodicity suggest that trout were able to capitalize on the increased availability of drifting prey in the twilight, especially in the early summer months. 相似文献

Abstract: Feeding responses of Cassida nebulosa to spinach vary depending on prior dietary experience. Adults reared on spinach, eat much spinach whereas those reared on Chenopodium album var. centrorubrum rarely eat it. However, there are a few reports that address the mechanisms of this phenomenon, which is termed 'induction of preference'. It has been presumed that this phenomenon arises in response to a reduction of sensitivity to the feeding deterrents contained in spinach as a result of early experience feeding on it. Therefore, we attempted to verify the effects of the feeding deterrent that was isolated from spinach. The feeding-deterrent response was reduced in adults reared on spinach compared with adults reared on C. album var. centrorubrum . Additionally, consumption of spinach by adults reared on deterrent-treated leaves of C. album var. centrorubrum was significantly higher than that by adults reared on control leaves of C. album var. centrorubrum . These results indicate that C. nebulosa acquires the ability to tolerate spinach because sensitivity to the feeding deterrent contained in spinach is reduced by early experience with the deterrent. 相似文献

The effect of the rate of increase in concentrate allowance after calving with two concentrate mixes (A and B) differing in composition was evaluated using 64 Finnish Ayrshire cows during the first 100 days of lactation. After calving, the concentrate allowance of multiparous cows was increased stepwise from 4 to 17 kg/day, and of primiparous cows from 3 to 13.5 kg/day over 12 days (F rate of increase; multiparous 1.08 kg/day, primiparous 0.88 kg/day) or 24 days (S rate of increase; mutiparous 0.54 kg/day, primiparous 0.44 kg/day). The concentrates were formulated to have similar crude protein and metabolizable energy concentrations but differing starch and NDF concentrations. For concentrate A the starch and NDF concentrations were 421 and 167 g/kg dry matter (DM) and for concentrate B 258 and 251 g/kg DM. All cows received grass silage ad libitum. The higher concentrate intake during weeks 1 to 4 of lactation with F compared with the S rate of increase caused higher DM, energy and protein intake. The higher concentrate intake for F than for S treatment in early lactation did not cause a large decrease in silage intake (8.8 v. 8.3 kg DM/day). The intake of concentrate A and B after calving did not differ for S treatment. However, for F treatment the intake of fibrous concentrate B increased faster than starch-rich concentrate A during weeks 1 to 4 of lactation. The concentrate composition had no effect on energy-corrected milk (ECM) yield during weeks 1 to 4 of lactation for S treatments, but with F treatments the cows fed B concentrate produced more milk. The F rate of increase in concentrate allowance compared with the S rate increased the calculated energy balance after calving. The rate of increase in concentrate feeding post partum or concentrate composition had no effect on DM, energy or protein intake during the whole 100-day experiment. The average ECM yield over days 1 to 100 of lactation was higher for S than for F treatments and tended to be higher with concentrate B than A. Results of this study showed that by the fast rate of increase in concentrate allowance after calving on a grass silage diet, it was possible to improve the energy status of the cows in early lactation. This had, however, no effect on production later in lactation. 相似文献

Direct observation was used to measure feeding rates of the flagellate Spumella on three sizes of bacteria plus 0.3 µm latex beads using video microscopy. Feeding rate was maximum on the intermediate-sized bacteria. Maximum ingestion rates (Im) for the large- (0.53 µm3), intermediate- (0.08 µm3) and small-sized (0.02 µm3) bacteria and 0.014 µm3 latex beads were 11, 38 and 14 bacteria and 9 beads flagellate–1 h–1, respectively. The growth rates of Spumella sp. feeding on monoxenic cultures of the large- vs. the intermediate-sized bacteria were indistinguishable but Spumella sp. could not sustain its population density when feeding on the small bacterium as the sole food source. Our data are consistent with the hypothesis that Spumella sp., and possibly other flagellate protozoa, tend to feed selectively on larger prey. One consequence of this hypothesis is that differential grazing by bactivores may select for small bacteria in natural waters. 相似文献

The possibility of feeding on green and newly fallen leaves of the small-leaved lime Tilia cordata was studied for the collembolans Protaphorura armata and Vertagopus pseudocinereus. Young leaves grown under sterile conditions and almost free of yeast fungi were found to be toxic to the collembolan V. pseudocinereus: feeding on them led to the death of the animals. Leaves grown under natural conditions were nontoxic: when used by the collembolans as feed, they provided for collembolan growth and fecundity. Feeding preferences of the collembolans in relation to the yeasts attributed to different ecomorphs—epiphytes, litter saprophytes, pedobionts, and saccharobionts—were studied. Of the 24 yeast strains isolated from plant green parts, litter, and soil and assigned to eight species, no strain was revealed that was not used by the collembolans. However, certain yeast strains were preferable for the collembolans. The population of the V. pseudocinereus collembolans feeding on the yeast Rhodotorula glutinis (nss 31–4) exceeded that grown on Cryptococcus terricola (2044) 1.5-fold. Thus, the collembolans have feeding preferences in relation to yeast fungi, as was shown earlier with mycelial micromycetes. The possible mechanisms of the feeding preferences of the collembolans in relation to yeasts are discussed. 相似文献

This study examined the effect on glycogen resynthesis during recovery from exercise of feeding glucose orally to physically trained rats which had been fed for 5 weeks on high-protein low fat (HP), high-protein/long-chain triglyceride (LCT) or high carbohydrate (CHO) diets. Muscle glycogen remained low and hepatic gluconeogenesis was stimulated by long-term fat or high-protein diets. The trained rats received, via a stomach tube, 3 ml of a 34% glucose solution immediately after exercise (2 h at 20 m.min-1), followed by 1-ml portions at hourly intervals until the end of the experiments. When fed glucose soleus muscle glycogen overcompensation occurred rapidly in the rats fed all three diets following prolonged exercise. In LCT- and CHO-fed rats, glucose feeding appeared more effective for soleus muscle repletion than in HP-fed rats. The liver demonstrated no appreciable glycogen overcompensation. A complete restoration of liver glycogen occurred within a 2- to 4-h recovery period in the rats fed HP-diet, while the liver glycogen store had been restored by only 67% in CHO-fed rats and 84% in LCT-fed rats within a 6-h recovery period. This coincides with low gluconeogenesis efficiency in these animals. 相似文献

The effect of feeding pigs in a three-phase feeding (3PF) system or a daily-phase feeding (DPF) system on growth performance, body composition, and N and P excretions was studied on 8 pens of 10 pigs each. Feeds for the 3PF and DPF treatments were obtained by mixing two feeds, one with a high nutrient concentration and the other with a low nutrient concentration. The DPF pigs tended (P=0.08) to consume more feed (+3.7%) than the 3PF pigs, but only during the first feeding phase. The DPF pigs consumed 7.3% less protein (P<0.01) but a similar amount of total P. For the whole growing period, the DPF pigs tended (P=0.08) to gain more weight (+2.4%) than the 3PF pigs, mainly because of faster growth (P=0.02) during the first feeding period. At the end of the experiment, total body protein mass was similar in the two treatment groups, but the DPF pigs had 8% more body lipids (P=0.04) than the 3PF pigs. Daily multiphase feeding reduced N excretion by 12% (P<0.01) but did not significantly reduce P excretion. In addition, feed costs, nutrient intake and nutrient excretion under the two feeding strategies were simulated and compared after different approaches were used to formulate complete feeds for each phase of the 3PF system, as well as the two feeds used in the DPF program. Simulated feed intake and growth was similar to those observed in the animal experiment. In comparison with the simulated 3PF system, the feed cost for the DPF pigs was reduced by 1.0%, the simulated N and P intakes were reduced by 7.3% and 4.4%, respectively, and the expected N and P excretions were reduced by 12.6% and 6.6%, respectively. The concomitant adjustment of the dietary concentration of nutrients to match the evaluated requirements of pig populations can be an efficient approach to significantly reduce feeding costs and N and P excretions in pig production systems. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to document under both field and laboratory conditions the phenomenon of size-biased feeding by the Gila topminnow, Poeciliopsis occidentalis, and to shed light on the mechanisms responsible for this process. Adult female Gila topminnows feed in Monkey Spring, Santa Cruz County, Arizona, on a variety of food items, but Hyalella azteca is an important element of its invertebrate diet. The size of the amphipods ingested by female topminnows is a function of the size of the fish, with larger fish taking larger prey. There is also a strong preference for topminnows to select large amphipods from within the size limits imposed by the width of the mouth.The correlation between fish size and prey size was also seen in the laboratory, utilizing Daphnia similis and food pellets as prey. The tendency to select large prey from a range of available sizes was prominent with both Daphnia and pellets. The feeding period in the laboratory is characterized by two distinct phases. During the first phase, feeding is rapid and nonselective. As the feeding progresses, the rate of feeding drops dramatically and selectivity increases.More complex laboratory feeding experiments gave equivocal results. When fish were presented pellets of two sizes at different densities and at different ratios of small to large, size biased feeding was not clearly evident. Both predator and prey densities, agonistic behavior, and reaction distance should be explored more thoroughly as next steps in attempts to mimic feeding behavior in nature.Extracted from a Ph.

Feeding rate, the rate of movement of food through the gut and gut morphology of large larvae of five caddis species (Halesus radiatus, Hydropsyche instabilis, Polycentropus kingi, Rhyacophila dorsalis and Potamophylax cingulatus) were investigated in the laboratory. Following 72 hr starvation, P. cingulatus and H. radiatus larvae became satiated (refused prey offered directly to the mouthparts) after consuming 8–11 and 9–13 mayfly nymphs (Baetis rhodani, 3.5–4.6 mm) respectively. Hunger level affected prey consumption. In P. cingulatus, the number of prey consumed over 24 h (at 9.5–12 °C) increased with starvation periods from 0–72 h, but declined following
longer starvation periods.
Six clearly recognisable gut states (defined by the position of food material in various parts of the gut) can be identified
at different times since commencement of a meal. As environmental temperature increased (from 8–12 °C to 15–17 °C), the rate
of change of the gut state increased and the food retention time decreased in all species. Feeding periodicity (i.e. nocturnal/diurnal activity) in the field was estimated based on the evacuation rate and the gut state and environmental temperature
at the known time of collection. Initiation of consumption of prey appeared to coincide with emptying of the foregut and proximal
midgut, whereas actual feeding continued until complete satiation when some threshold fullness of the foregut had been reached.
The length of time food was held in the foregut was positively correlated with increasing specialisation of the foregut (particularly
elaboration of the proventriculus). 相似文献
