چکیده

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of temperature, feed fat content and dietary oil source on growth and nutrient utilisation of Atlantic salmon parr (f 19 g). The fish were reared in freshwater at 2 or 8 jC for 6 months at light/dark cycles of 12 h:12 h. Each of four feeds was provided to triplicate groups of fish at each temperature. The feeds were formulated with marine fish oil or a blend of rapeseed and linseed oil at low or high inclusion levels to give feeds with 340 g kg 1 fat and 400 g kg 1 protein or 210 g kg 1 fat and 500 g kg 1 protein. Fish weights doubled over the 6 months at the lower temperature, whereas a fivefold increase was seen over the same period at the higher temperature. At the lower temperature, growth was similar for fish in all four dietary groups (SGR; 0.40F 0.01% day ), whereas significantly better growth was found for fish fed the low fat feeds at the higher temperature (SGR; 0.99F 0.01% vs. 0.93F 0.01% day ). Feed efficiencies were higher for fish at the lower temperature. Apparent fat and protein digestibilities were high at both temperatures, but fat digestibility was significantly lower at the lower temperature (ADCfat; 96.3F 0.5% vs. 98.2F 0.4%). Fat digestibility was higher for the high fat feeds, but significant differences between the groups were found only at the lower temperature. Protein digestibility was also lower at the lower temperature (ADCprotein; 90.8F 0.4% vs. 91.2F 0.4%), and was significantly improved when vegetable oils were used in the feed. Protein retention efficiency (PRE: [g protein gain g protein ingested ] 100) was significantly higher at 8 jC than at 2 jC (PRE; 52F 1 vs. 49F 2), and high feed fat content improved protein retention.

Exposure to continuous light disrupts retinal innervation of the preoptic nucleus during parr–smolt transformation in Atlantic salmon

High quality salmon smolts are essential for aquaculture, enhancement programs and wild populations. However, intensification of aquaculture smolt production and changes in natural habitats can cause sub-optimal environmental conditions, which may result in poor smolt quality. The salmon brain, as the integrator of environmental information, plays a focal role in relaying this information throu...

Effect of feeding rate on nutrient digestibility in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.

A digestibility trial was conducted to examine the effect of feeding rate on dry matter, gross energy, crude protein and phosphorus digestibility in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Duplicate groups of fish were fed 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.9% BW/day. The faeces were collected by Guelph-type collectors for five successive days. Dry matter, protein and phosphorus digestibility’s were all s...

New de novo sources of omega 3 (n-3) long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are required as alternatives to fish oil in aquafeeds in order to maintain adequate levels of the beneficial fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic (EPA and DHA, respectively). The present study investigated the use of an EPA+DHA oil derived from transgenic Camelina sativa in Atlantic salmon (Salmo ...

The effect of nonylphenol on gene expression in Atlantic salmon smolts.

The parr-smolt transformation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is a complex developmental process that culminates in the ability to migrate to and live in seawater. Exposure to environmental contaminants like nonylphenol can disrupt smolt development and may be a contributing factor in salmon population declines. We used GRASP 16K cDNA microarrays to investigate the effects of nonylphenol on ge...

Effects of water-borne 4-nonylphenol and 17beta-estradiol exposures during parr-smolt transformation on growth and plasma IGF-I of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.).

4-Nonylphenol (4-NP) is an endocrine disrupting substance (EDS) capable of mimicking the action of 17beta-estradiol (E2). It has been hypothesized that 4-NP in a pesticide formulation is linked to historical declines in Canadian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) populations, with effects being related to exposure during parr-smolt transformation (PST). To test this hypothesis, Atlantic salmon sm...
