三峡库区汞污染的化学生态效应

测定长江三峡库区江段鲤、铜鱼、鲇、长吻中的砷、镉、铜、汞、铅、硒、锌等元素的含量。比例匹配分析表明，样品或元素间无显著相关。铜鱼、鲤、鲇及长吻对汞的富集系数分别为8．0×103、1．5×104、3．3×104、8．4×104（L／kg）。这表明鱼体汞元素含量与鱼类在食物链营养级的位置密切相关，食物链越长，汞的富集系数越高。鲤、鲇及长吻的肌肉、肝、肾和牌间的汞含量比值约为6：2：1，而铜鱼为1：1：2．5。三峡库区降低鲤、鲇及长吻的肌肉有机汞含量占总汞含量的84％－92％，肝、肾和脾的有机汞占总汞的55％－

白鲫(♀)×红鲫(♂)异源四倍体鱼的倍性操作及其生殖力的研究

采用热休克调控技术诱导出103尾第一代白鲫（♀）×红鲫（）异源四倍体鱼，并对其生殖力进行了研究。1或2龄的四倍体雄鱼能产生精子，而雌鱼不能产生正常的卵。将异源四倍体雄鱼与二倍体白鲫雌鱼交配产生倍间三倍体鱼，染色体检查证明是整三倍体（3N＝150），但其受精率很低（11．4—51．3％，平均32．4％）．网箱养殖结果表明，倍间三倍体白鲫的生长速度比白鲫快30％以上，雌雄均不育．并用冷休克处理回收异源四倍体4N（）×白鲫2N（♀）受精卵的第二极体产生了新的四倍体鱼．文中还对第一代异源四倍体鱼的批量生产、生殖能

淡水生态系统中的若干生物多样性问题

<正> 淡水生态系统,包括河流和湖泊等内陆水体,较陆地生态系统和海洋生态系统更具封闭性,自我反馈能力较弱,稳定性较低,显得特别脆弱。然而淡水资源又是人类赖以生存的最为重要的资源之一,它关系到饮水、灌溉、航运、发电、渔业、旅游和工业、生活用水等重大问题。近几十年来。由于森林砍伐造成的水土流失,由于围湖造田造成的水域面积缩减,

多子小瓜虫的形态、生活史及其防治方法和一新种的描述

<正> 一、绪言小瓜虫是一种身体比较大,肉眼能见的原生动物,寄生在各种淡水鱼的上皮组织和鳃丝组织中,剥取寄主的上皮细胞和红血球为生。同时,由于它在组织中不停的活动和钻营的结果,上皮组织引起病态的浮肿,形成白色突出的小点,故有“白点”病之称。这种病,目前在我国淡水养鱼事业中已成为主要的危险病害之一。它的爆发流行,往往使成千成万的鱼种在几天之内死亡;用作春季产卵孵化的亲鲤,由于它的侵袭,以致不能完成鲤鱼苗的生产计划。金鱼和热带鱼的饲养者对小瓜虫的威胁体会更深,多年很费

Localization and tracking of phonating finless porpoises using towed stereo acoustic data-loggers

Cetaceans produce sound signals frequently. Usually, acoustic localization of cetaceans was made by cable hydrophone arrays and multichannel recording systems. In this study, a simple and relatively inexpensive towed acoustic system consisting of two miniature stereo acoustic data-loggers is described for localization and tracking of finless porpoises in a mobile survey. Among 204 porpoises detected acoustically, 34 individuals (similar to 17%) were localized, and 4 of the 34 localized individuals were tracked. The accuracy of the localization is considered to be fairly high, as the upper bounds of relative distance errors were less than 41% within 173 m. With the location information, source levels of finless porpoise clicks were estimated to range from 180 to 209 dB re 1 mu Pa pp at 1 m with an average of 197 dB (N=34), which is over 20 dB higher than that estimated previously from animals in enclosed waters. For the four tracked porpoises, two-dimensional swimming trajectories relative to the moving survey boat, absolute swimming speed, and absolute heading direction are deduced by assuming the animal movements are straight and at constant speed in the segment between two consecutive locations.

Structure, organization and expression of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) NKEF-B gene

Natural killer (NK) cell enhancing factor (NKEF) belongs to the newly defined peroxiredoxin (Prx) family. Its functions are to enhance NK cell cytotoxicity and to protect DNA and proteins from oxidative damage. In this study, a partial cDNA sequence of carp NKEF-B was isolated from thymus cDNA library. Subsequently, the full-length cDNA of carp NKEF-B was obtained by means of 3' and 5' RACE, respectively. The full-length cDNA of carp NKEF-B was 1022 bp, consisting of a 73 bp 5'-terminal untranslated region (UTR), a 355 bp T-terminal UTR, and a 594 bp open reading frame coding for a protein of 197 amino acids. Carp NKEF-B contained two consensus Val-Cys-Pro (VCP) motifs and three consensus cysteine (Cys-51, Cys-70 and Cys-172) residues. Sequence comparison showed that the deduced amino acid sequence of carp NKEF-B had an overall similarity of 74-96% to that of other species homologues. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that carp NKEF-B forms a cluster with other known teleost NKEF-Bs. Then, by PCR we obtained a 5.1 -k long genomic DNA of carp NKEF-B containing six exons and five introns. Realtime RT-PCR results showed that carp NKEF-B gene was predominantly detected in kidney and head kidney under un-infected conditions. Whereas under SVCV-infection condition, the expression of NKEF-B gene was significantly increased in blood cells, gill, intestine and spleen, but maintained in liver, and decreased significantly in kidney and head kidney. Finally, the rNKEF-B was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. By using an antibody against carp rNKEF-B, immunohistochemical study further indicated that NKEF-B positive cells are mainly some RBCs and a few epithelial cells in gill and intestine, and that under SVCV-infection condition, these positive cells or positive products in their cytoplasm were mainly increased in gill and spleen sections of carp. The results obtained in the present study will help to understand the function of NKEF-B in teleost innate immunity. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Reduced swimming abilities in fast-growing transgenic common carp Cyprinus carpio associated with their morphological variations

Critical swimming speeds (U-crit) and morphological characters were compared between the F-4 generation of GH-transgenic common carp Cyprinus carpio and the non-transgenic controls. Transgenic fish displayed a mean absolute U-crit value 22.3% lower than the controls. Principal component analysis identified variations in body shape, with transgenic fish having significantly deeper head, longer caudal length of the dorsal region, longer standard length (L-S) and shallower body and caudal region, and shorter caudal length of the ventral region. Swimming speeds were related to the combination of deeper body and caudal region, longer caudal length of the ventral region, shallower head depth, shorter caudal length of dorsal region and L-S. These findings suggest that morphological variations which are poorly suited to produce maximum thrust and minimum drag in GH-transgenic C. carpio may be responsible for their lower swimming abilities in comparison with non-transgenic controls.
