Effects of pH on sodium uptake in Norwegian brown trout (Salmo trutta) from an acid river.

چکیده

Sodium uptake rates were measured in wild and hatchery reared Norwegian brown trout (Salmo trutta) exposed to media of a range of pH. Sodium uptake was strongly dependent on external acidity, being reduced in media of low pH. Wild fish from the naturally acid R. Tovdal (S. Norway) were more tolerant of acid media than hatchery reared fish. The effects of increasing external sodium concentrations were strongly influenced by low external pH. The results are discussed with respect to brown trout population decline in certain areas of S. Norway.

Acclimation to an acid medium in the brown trout Salmo trutta.

Data are presented which demonstrate acclimation of brown trout (Salmo trutta) to an acid medium. Sodium fluxes, transepithelial gill potentials and plasma electrolyte concentrations were measured in brown trout exposed to an acid medium of pH 6.0 for a period of 6 weeks. Sodium loss rates in acid exposed fish are reduced compared to normal fish, and sodium uptake in insensitive to external pH ...

The effects of extender type, freezing and thawing rates on fertility of the cryopreserved semen of the Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius )

Cryopreservation of semen from the Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius) and effects of extender type, freezing and thawing rates on fertilization ability were studied. After assessment of semen quality, one part of semen was diluted with three parts of different extender and decanted into 0.5ml straws. Freezing was carried out at two freezing levels, 1.5cm and 2cm above surface of liquid ...
