Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus
We used a two-compartment, clearance volume-based model to examine rubidium and cesium Ž . pharmacokinetics in channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus after intravascular administration. We compared the apparent volumes of distribution in the central and peripheral compartments and the intercompartmental and whole-body clearances of both metals at 20.0 8C and 27.5 8C. Biological half-times of Rb we...
متن کاملIdentification and Characterization of Full-Length cDNAs in Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) and Blue Catfish (Ictalurus furcatus)
BACKGROUND Genome annotation projects, gene functional studies, and phylogenetic analyses for a given organism all greatly benefit from access to a validated full-length cDNA resource. While increasingly common in model species, full-length cDNA resources in aquaculture species are scarce. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Through in silico analysis of catfish (Ictalurus spp.) ESTs, a total ...
متن کاملGrowth of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), blue catfish (I. furcatus), and their F1, F2, F3, and F1 reciprocal backcross hybrids in earthen ponds.
The F1 hybrid between a channel catfish female (Ictalurus punctatus) × a blue catfish (I. furcatus) male outperforms both parental species in most environments. However, reproductive isolating mechanisms between the species made it difficult to mass produce the F1 hybrid for commercialization until recent improvements in hormone usage. This study was undertaken to mix the genomes of the 2 speci...
متن کاملDietary Bovine Lactoferrin Increases Resistance of Juvenile Channel Catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, to Enteric Septicemia
Juvenile channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, were fed nutritionally complete, practical basal diets supplemented with bovine lactoferrin (Lf) at 0, 200, 400, 800, or 1600 mg/kg diet for 5 wk. Feed intake was significantly higher in fish-fed diets supplemented with Lf compared to the control diet, but the increased feed intake did not translate to significant increases in growth performance. H...
متن کاملGenetic Monogamy in the Channel Catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, a Species with Uniparental Nest Guarding
Behavioral observations have suggested that Channel Catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, spawn as monogamous pairs and that males alone provide subsequent care to the resulting embryos and fry. However, genetic monogamy is quite uncommon in fish and is not necessarily correctly predicted by apparent social interactions. Here we develop and employ seven microsatellite loci to address biological parenta...
