Excess post-hypoxic oxygen consumption in Atlantic cod Gadus morhua.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Atlantic cod Gadus morhua experienced oxygen deficit ( D O 2 ) when exposed to oxygen levels below their critical level (c. 73% of pcrit ) and subsequent excess post-hypoxic oxygen consumption (CEPHO ) upon return to normoxic conditions, indicative of an oxygen debt. The mean ± s.e. CEPHO : D O 2 was 6·9 ± 1·5, suggesting that resorting to anaerobic energy production in severe hypoxia is energetically expensive.

Some Atlantic cod Gadus morhua in the Baltic Sea visit hypoxic water briefly but often.
Individual behaviour of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua in the presence of hypoxic water was measured in situ in the vertically stratified Bornholm Basin of the Baltic Sea. Considering all recaptured individuals, the use of hypoxic habitat was comparable to data derived by traditional survey data, but some G. morhua had migrated towards the centre of the c.100 m deep basin and spent about a third of ...
متن کاملSpontaneous Swimming Activity of Atlantic Cod Gadus Morhua Exposed to Graded Hypoxia at Three Temperatures
The spontaneous swimming activity of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua was investigated at graded levels of hypoxia at three temperatures (5, 10 and 15 °C) by using a computerized system monitoring animal activity. The fish were tested individually, and swimming distance was used as a measure of activity. No significant effect of temperature on swimming distance in normoxic water was found. At all ...
متن کاملThe behavioural and physiological response of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua L. to short-term acute hypoxia
The average rate of swimming speed and the physiological status or stress of individual Atlantic cod Gadus morhua was monitored in response to short-term acute (STA) hypoxia (i.e. partial pressure of oxygen, PO2 , reduced from 20 9 to 4 3 kPa within 1 h at 10° C). The STA hypoxic response of Atlantic cod was associated with a large primary increase (þ29%) and a large secondary decrease ( 54%) i...
متن کاملEffects of Hypoxic Exposure during Feeding on SDA and Postprandial Cardiovascular Physiology in the Atlantic Cod, Gadus morhua
Some Atlantic cod in the Bornholm Basin undertake vertical foraging migrations into severely hypoxic bottom water. Hypoxic conditions can reduce the postprandial increase in gastrointestinal blood flow (GBF). This could subsequently postpone or reduce the postprandial increase in oxygen consumption (MO(2)), i.e. the SDA, leading to a disturbed digestion. Additionally, a restricted oxygen uptake...
متن کاملPreferred temperature of juvenile Atlantic cod Gadus morhua with different haemoglobin genotypes at normoxia and moderate hypoxia.
Atlantic cod Gadus morhua has polymorphic haemoglobin, which can be separated into two homozygous types, HbI-1 and HbI-2, and one heterozygous type HbI-1/2. The geographical distribution of Atlantic cod with the different haemoglobin types varies, with the HbI(2) allele occurring at high frequency in northern regions, and the HbI(1) allele dominant in warmer areas. To determine if temperature i...
