This book was released on 2005 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi have declined throughout their native range in the Northern Rockies and were considered for listing under the federal Endangered Species Act. Water temperature is widely regarded as playing a key role in determining their persistence, but specific lethal levels and thermal optima for this cutthroat trout subspecies had not been precisely defined. This laboratory study used the acclimated chronic exposure method to determine tolerances and thermal optima of westslope cutthroat trout and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, a potential nonnative competitor now occupying much of the former range of westslope cutthroat trout. Rainbow trout had a distinct survival advantage over westslope cutthroat trout at warmer temperatures. The ultimate upper incipient lethal temperature (temperature at which 50% of the population survives for 60-d) of rainbow trout (24.3°C; 95% CI, 24.0-24.7°C) was 4.7°C higher than that of westslope cutthroat trout (19.6°C; 95% CI, 19.1-19.9°C). In contrast, the optimum growth temperature for westslope cutthroat trout (13.6°C; 95% CI, 10.3-17.0°C) over the 60-d test period was very similar to that of rainbow trout (13.1°C; 95% CI, 6.8-18.2°C), although rainbow trout grew better over a wider range and at higher temperatures than did westslope cutthroat trout. The upper lethal and optimum growth temperatures for westslope cutthroat trout are in the lower range among most salmonids. The higher upper temperature tolerance of rainbow trout and its greater ability for growth at warmer temperatures may account for its increased occurrence at lower elevations than cutthroat trout. Water quality standards setting maximum daily temperatures from 13-15°C, near the optimum growth temperature, would ensure suitable thermal habitat to maintain the persistence of westslope cutthroat trout populations. In addition, survival and growth parameters indicated in this study can be used with stream temperature modeling to predict suitable habitat for westslope cutthroat trout, as they may be particularly susceptible to increases in stream temperature associated with climate change. Such predictions of habitat suitability will be vital in prioritizing conservation efforts with respect to reintroduction and translocation of westslope cutthroat trout.

Melendez and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental temperature is a crucial environmental factor that influences many physiological functions in fishes. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are a native anadromous species that inhabit a variety of freshwater rivers and lakes and are widely distributed throughout the western portion of the United States. Resident rainbow trout populations occupy interior freshwater environments for the entirety of life. Interior bodies of water are most susceptible to changes in environmental temperatures. Therefore, resident rainbow trout are likely to be impacted by variable and rising temperatures, particularly during embryonic development. Understanding temperature effects during development is likely to provide insight into the overall thermal biology of a species and its persistence in a changing climate. To assess the effect of temperature on development of rainbow trout, we examined phenotypes of hatchery embryos reared in various incubation temperatures (5°C, 10°C, 15°C and 17.5°C). To identify the presence of embryonic developmental plasticity within developmental time points, embryos incubated in 5°C were exposed to either 10°C, 15°C or 17.5°C during gastrulation, organogenesis, system integration or growth windows and a 3-dimensional critical window model was applied. An increase in constant incubation temperature increased oxygen consumption rate (V̇O2), and decreased hatchling survival, mass, yolk size, body length and time to 50% hatch. Thermally shifting embryos into increased temperature during distinct windows of development also reduced survival at hatch, and this was most evident following exposure during organogenesis, which may signify the presence of a critical window for this trait. Likewise, thermally shifting embryos into increased temperature resulted in smaller hatchlings. Although there was an initial increase in V̇ O2 in response to temperature, experiencing thermal shifts during development had no persistent effect on V̇ O2 when measured at hatch at 5°C compared to 5°C constant embryos. Collectively, these results suggest that survival and morphological traits of rainbow trout embryos are most sensitive to increased temperature during organogenesis and system integration, but increased temperature does not appear to have a long-term effect on energy use. Environmental temperature plays a fundamental role in developing aquatic vertebrates. Thus, critical window studies such this performed across species will eventually allow for the identification of commonalities in plasticity between different species in response to variables such as temperature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With wild stocks declining due to over-fishing, aquaculture will have a more significant role to play in meeting future demand for fresh fish. Developments in research continue to lead to improvements in aquaculture production systems, resulting in increased production efficiency, higher product quality for consumers and a more sustainable industry. New technologies in aquaculture reviews essential advances in these areas. Part one focuses on the genetic improvement of farmed species and control of reproduction, with chapters on genome-based technologies in aquaculture research, selective breeding and the production of single sex and sterile populations, among other topics. Parts two and three review key issues in health, diet and husbandry, such as the control of viral and parasitic diseases, diet and husbandry techniques to improve disease resistance, advances in diets for particular fish species and the impact of harmful algal bloom on shellfisheries aquaculture. Chapters in Parts three and four then examine the design of different aquaculture production systems, including offshore technologies, tank-based recirculating systems and ponds, and key environmental issues, such as the prediction and assessment of the impact of aquaculture. Concluding chapters focus on farming new species.

Download or read book Genetics of Subpolar Fish and Invertebrates written by Anthony J. Gharrett and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fisheries genetics researchers will find invaluable the thirty-eight peer-reviewed contributions in this book, presented at the 20th Lowell Wakefield Fisheries Symposium "Genetics of Subpolar Fish and Invertebrates," held in May 2002 in Juneau, Alaska. Looming over concerns of lost fisheries stocks and persistent erosion of genetic variability are predictions of global warming, which may further tax genetic resources. One consequence is an increased reliance on genetic applications to many aspects of fisheries management, aquaculture, and conservation. The contributions in this book are important to modern fisheries science and genetics, and illustrate the evolution of the field over the past decade. The improved technology provides tools to address increasingly complicated problems in traditional applications and ecological and behavioral studies. The union between molecular and quantitative genetics, where many of the major questions about population structure and evolution remain unanswered, will also benefit from the new technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquaculture technology has been evolving rapidly over the last two decades, led by an increasingly skilled cadre of researchers in developing countries. Rather than copying, or adapting work done in industrialized countries to their situations, these scientists are moving aquaculture research out of the box to explore species and production systems relevant to their natural resources, economies and social institutions. Studies from India, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa are highlighted in this collection of papers, covering the entire gamut of aquaculture science from comparison of tilapia breeds, novel feed ingredients for indigenous species, improving disease resistance, water-use efficiency, traditional farming systems, spatial planning and economics. More than a how-to book, this volume introduces the researchers and institutions leading the development of aquaculture as it expands into new frontiers. This book was based on a special issue of the Journal of Applied Aquaculture.
