Atlantic salmon reared in recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) may lead to inappropriately high stocking density, because fish live in a limited space. Finding the suitable stocking density of Atlantic salmon reared in RAS is very important for RAS industry. In this paper, the influence of stocking density on growth and some stress related physiological factors were investigated to evaluate the effects of stocking density. The fish were reared for 220 days at five densities (A: 24 kg/m3; B: 21 kg/m3; C: 15 kg/m3; D: 9 kg/ m3 and E: 6 kg/m3 ). The results show that 30 kg/m3 might be the maximum density which RAS can afford in China. The stocking densities under 30 kg/m3 have no effect on mortality of Atlantic salmon reared in RAS. However, the specific growth rate (SGR), final weight and weight gain in the high density group were significantly lower than the lower density groups and middle density groups. Moreover, feed conversion rate (FCR) had a negative correlation with density. Plasma hormone T3 and GH showed significant decrease with the increase of the stocking density of the experiment. Furthermore, thyroid hormone (T3), GH (growth hormone) activities were decreased with stocking density increase. However, plasma cortisol, GOT (glutamic oxalacetic transaminase) and GPT (glutamic pyruvic transaminase) activities were increase with stocking density increase. And the stocking density has no effects on plasma lysozyme of Atlantic salmon reared in RAS. These investigations would also help devise efficient ways to rear adult Atlantic salmon in China and may, in a way, help spread salmon mariculture in China.
近几年来,对长江口底栖生物曾进行多次调查研究:1980-1981年进行了“中美海洋沉积作用联合研究”( Boesch等,1986;孙道元、董永庭,1986; Rhoads et al.,1985;Sun and Dong,1985);1982-1983年中国水产科学研究院东海水产研究所进行了“长江河口南岸污染对底栖生物的影响”的研究(戴国樑,1989):1985-1986年中国科学院海研究所进行了“长江口底栖生物及三峡工程对其影响的预测”的研究(刘瑞玉等,本集)。通过这些调查研究,基本掌握了长江口及其邻近水域底栖生物的概貌。
1988年4月和10月,作者又对长江口枯、丰水期后底栖动物的分布特点进行了调查研究。研究所用主要材料是在123°E以西,30°30′-32°00′N之间水域的35个取样站(图1)枯、丰水期后所获。海上取样每站以0.1㎡的表层采样器取样两次,通过0.5mm孔目的筛子冲洗后,样品在实验室内挑选、鉴定、称重和计数。 相似文献
