agonistic acts as possible indicator of food anticipatory activity (faa) in rainbow trou (oncorhynchus mykiss)
Authors
abstract
food anticipatory activity (faa) was assessed in rainbow trout ( oncorhynchus mykiss ) in two small raceways using demand-feeding (t2) and hand-feeding (t2). the fish of both raceways were subjected to restricted feeding (rf) at two times in two places and the fish distribution and/or trigger actuation, total agonistic behaviour between fish, and swimming speed were measured. food anticipatory activity did not appear clearly when using the usual measures. the present study suggests that the expression of faa is not limited to trigger actuations, fish positioning or swimming activity but may also be described by swimming speed and agonistic behaviour.

full textRainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
Rainbow trout are classified as Oncorhynchus mykiss, and as such belong to the same genus as Pacific salmon, and to the family Salmonidae, which includes Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), various trout (Salvelinus sp.), Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus), Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus) and whitefish (Coregonus sp.). Rainbow trout are native to areas around the North Pacific Ocean, from souther...
full textFly Prepupae as a Feedstuff for Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
Fly larvae may provide an effective method to mitigate two large and growing global concerns: the use of fish meal derived from capture fisheries in aquaculture diets and manure management in livestock and poultry facilities. A 9-wk feed trial was conducted to determine whether fly larvae could be used as a partial fish meal and fish oil replacement in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, diets....

The rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, was first introduced in Chile between 1905 and 1920 and is currently widely distributed in Chile from Antofagasta (23°S) to Patagonia (55oS). The broad range of the geographic and climatic distributions of this species in Chile offers a unique opportunity to study the effect of naturalization of an introduced species on its genetic variability. It is of pa...
full textA metabolomics approach to elucidate effects of food deprivation in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether NMR-based metabolomics is a suitable method to generate an integrated view on metabolic processes during food deprivation in salmonid fish. Juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) weighing 43-115 g were either fed ad libitum or deprived of food for 28 days at 10°C to investigate catabolic effects on energy reserves and metabolite patterns. The ...

Experiments were carried out to investigate the relationship between ion exchange and energy metabolism in rainbow trout erythrocytes in vitro. Under resting conditions, the sodium/potassium pump accounts for 20 % of the cellular energy budget. In the presence of the /S-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol, however, this increases to 43 %. Inhibition of the sodium/potassium pump with ouabain result...
