半滑舌鳎精子发生的组织学研究

本文应用组织学方法对半滑舌鳎雄鱼精巢结构和精子发生过程进行了详细地研究．观察结果表明,它的精巢结构特点是随着精巢的发育可见它的精巢外面有一条管状贮精囊与输出管相连,在精巢发育成熟过程中,贮精囊中逐渐充满精子,这个特点有助于了解半滑舌鳎的受精生物学的复杂性．另外,从半滑舌鳎精子发生过程分析,它的精巢属于小叶型,精巢发育分为6期．精子发生经历精原细胞、精母细胞、精子细胞及精子．最后,文中还讨论了半滑舌鳎精巢中非生殖细胞（间质细胞和Sertoli细胞）的分布及其可能的生理作用．     

性类固醇激素及其受体在半滑舌鳎性腺分化发育过程中的表达与生理功能

首次用17β-雌二醇(E_2)及其受体(ERα)、睾酮受体(AR)的多克隆抗体在半滑舌鳎(Cynoglossus semilaevisG(u|¨)nther)性腺分化发育过程中进行免疫细胞化学定位研究。结果表明:在半滑舌鳎原始性腺中已有E_2、ERα和AR的分布和表达;卵原细胞、初级卵母细胞、精原细胞、初级精母细胞、次级精母细胞对E_2及ERα、AR抗体均呈现不同程度的阳性反应,在精细胞和精子中对E_2和ERα呈免疫阴性反应,而AR则一直保持较强表达,揭示了半滑舌鳎性腺中类固醇激素可能通过旁分泌调控机制刺激卵子和精子发育和成熟。性类固醇激素及其受体免疫阳性物定位在生殖细胞的胞质、胞膜和核膜等广泛部位并有表达,在性腺分化和不同发育时期的表达强度有所不同,表明其在性腺分化发育过程各阶段所起生理功能不同。这些结果为证明性类固醇激素及受体参与调节半滑舌鳎性腺分化发育提供了重要形态学新证据。     

绿鳍马面鲀重复发育雄性生殖腺结构与发育组织学观察

采用常规石蜡切片、HE组织染色法研究了性成熟绿鳍马面鲀雄性生殖腺结构和发育组织学。结果表明,性成熟绿鳍马面鲀精巢从外形上明显分为上、下两段,上段为生精部,下段为贮精囊。生精部分为2支,呈黄色、长条状;生精部为典型的小叶型结构;精小叶间有间质(Leydig)细胞。其生精部的发育历程可分为重复发育Ⅲ期、精子形成Ⅳ期、精子成熟Ⅴ期和退化吸收Ⅵ期。贮精囊位于精巢的后方并通过壶腹与生精部相连,贮精囊为椭圆形,白色不分支,其组织结构与贮存精子功能相适应,由许多被结缔组织分开的管状囊腔组成;贮精囊组织学变化与生精部周期性的变化相关,又有相对的独立性,也有周期发育,可分为恢复期、生殖期和退化期。     

促激素及其受体在雄性半滑舌鳎脑垂体和精巢中的定位

应用兔抗血清对抗鱼类和哺乳类促激素及其受体的多克隆抗体对雄性半滑舌鳎脑垂体和精巢进行了免疫组织化学定位.其结果显示GnRHR、LHR和GtH免疫活性定位在不同发育时期的腺垂体和精巢中.GtH免疫阳性细胞的数量和免疫强度随着精巢发育成熟而明显增强.同时还发现睾酮（T）和雄激素受体（AR）在半滑舌鳎精巢中的定位有别于其他鱼类,尤其是雄激素受体（AR）免疫活性在精原细胞中的数量很少.依据这个特点文中还讨论了其可能与精巢发育的关系,同时证明了半滑舌鳎精巢发育像其他硬骨鱼类一样受激素的调控.     

大泷六线鱼睾酮和雌二醇及其受体在精巢发育中的生理作用

大泷六线鱼主要分布在我国的黄海和渤海水域,是北部海区重要的经济鱼类之一。本文采用免疫组织化学方法和激素放射免疫测定技术,研究了血浆睾酮(T)和雌二醇(E2)含量、雄激素受体(AR)和雌激素受体(ER)在性腺组织中的定位,以及它们与性腺发育周期的关系。结果表明:雄鱼血浆T和E2含量表现明显的季节变动,在繁殖期(11月至翌年1月)内显著上升,T和E2水平分别达到21.26 ng/dL和13.36 pg/mL,在非生殖季节(2～8月)显著下降。ER在精巢间质细胞中表现强阳性反应,AR只在间质细胞中表现中等强度的反应。在恢复期发育的精巢(Ⅲ期),芳香化酶表现出强的免疫阳性反应,特别是在精原细胞和精母细胞中,在成熟精巢中阳性反应减弱,在精子细胞和精子中表现阴性反应。上述研究结果说明,睾酮、雌二醇及芳香化酶参与了大泷六线鱼精巢发育和繁殖内分泌功能调节。

以点带石斑鱼(Epinephelus malabaricas)、半滑舌鳎(Cynoglossus semilaevis)养殖排放水为处理对象,在生产现场研究了竹环填料生物滤器处理高盐度、低氨氮负荷海水养殖废水的运行效果以及挂膜阶段和稳定运行阶段微生物群落变化规律。结果表明,点带石斑鱼养殖废水进水氨氮质量浓度为0.93～1.33 mg/L,氨氮去除率达到27%～39%,挂膜时间需45 d;半滑舌鳎养殖废水进水氨氮质量浓度为0.38～0.52 mg/L,氨氮去除率达到20%～30%,挂膜时间需65 d。另外,对生物滤器挂膜阶段和稳定运行阶段的氨氧化细菌数量和亚硝酸氧化细菌数量进行了统计,氨氧化细菌的数量在点带石斑鱼和半滑舌鳎养殖排放水处理系统中分别达到104～105 CFU/mL和103 CFU/mL,亚硝酸氧化细菌数量则分别达到104 CFU/mL和103 CFU/mL,并分析了温度、进水氨氮负荷、反硝化作用对半滑舌鳎养殖废水生物滤器亚硝酸盐积累现象的影响。     

三丁基锡对褐菖鮋精巢性激素受体表达的影响

三丁基锡(Tributyltin,TBT)能够影响鱼类生殖功能,而有关TBT对鱼类生殖细胞发育至关重要的雄激素和雌激素受体的影响还未见报道。本实验以海洋经济鱼类褐菖鲉(Sebastiscus marmoratus)为对象,研究环境水平TBT(1,10和100ng/L)对精巢雄激素和雌激素受体表达的影响。结果表明,TBT暴露能够抑制褐菖鲉精巢发育和精巢雌激素受体蛋白的水平,并且发现雌激素受体主要定位于精巢精小叶腔间隙。小叶腔间隙的雌激素受体蛋白水平降低可能影响支持细胞和间隙细胞的正常功能,从而影响精巢的正常发育。TBT暴露对雄激素受体的表达并没有显著的影响。该结果为全面了解TBT产生鱼类生殖毒性效应、途径和机制提供了新的重要的资料。

Fisheries co-management as empowerment

Empowerment is both a condition and a goal of fisheries co-management. In this paper I attempt to explain what empowerment means, what it requires, and what can be expected from it. The concept emphasizes psychological as well as sociological factors. It works at an individual and a collective level. For fisheries co-management to become sustainable, empowerment must occur at both levels. Thus, co-management entails more than institutional design and participatory democracy. It also requires capacity enhancement. The good news is that these processes are mutually dependent and reinforcing. They should therefore proceed hand in hand, and it does not matter very much which of them is undertaken first.

Tidal sands as biogeochemical reactors

Sandy sediments of continental shelves and most beaches are often thought of as geochemical deserts because they are usually poor in organic matter and other reactive substances. The present study focuses on analyses of dissolved biogenic compounds of surface seawater and pore waters of Aquitanian coastal beach sediments. To quantitatively assess the biogeochemical reactions, we collected pore waters at low tide on tidal cross-shore transects unaffected by freshwater inputs. We recorded temperature, salinity, oxygen saturation state, and nutrient concentrations. These parameters were compared to the values recorded in the seawater entering the interstitial environment during floods. Cross-shore topography and position of piezometric level at low tide were obtained from kinematics GPS records. Residence time of pore waters was estimated by a tracer approach, using dissolved silica concentration and kinetics estimate of quartz dissolution with seawater. Kinetics parameters were based on dissolved silica concentration monitoring during 20-day incubations of sediment with seawater. We found that seawater that entered the sediment during flood tides remained up to seven tidal cycles within the interstitial environment. Oxygen saturation of seawater was close to 100%, whereas it was as low as 80% in pore waters. Concentrations of dissolved nutrients were higher in pore waters than in seawater. These results suggest that aerobic respiration occurred in the sands. We propose that mineralised organic matter originated from planktonic material that infiltrated the sediment with water during flood tides. Therefore, the sandy tidal sediment of the Aquitanian coast is a biogeochemical reactor that promotes or accelerates remineralisation of coastal pelagic primary production. Mass balance calculations suggest that this single process supplies about 37 kmol of nitrate and 1.9 kmol of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) to the 250-km long Aquitanian coast during each semi-diurnal tidal cycle. It represents about 1.5% of nitrate and 5% of DIP supplied by the nearest estuary.

Carbohydrates as indicators of biogeochemical processes

A method is presented to study the carbohydrate composition of marine objects involved into sedimento- and diagenesis (plankton, particulate matter, benthos, and bottom sediments). The analysis of the carbohydrates is based upon the consecutive separation of their fractions with different solvents (water, alkali, and acid). The ratio of the carbohydrate fractions allows one to evaluate the lability of the carbohydrate complex. It is also usable as an indicator of the biogeochemical processes in the ocean, as well of the genesis and the degree of conversion of organic matter in the bottom sediments and nodules. The similarity in the monosaccharide composition is shown for dissolved organic matter and aqueous and alkaline fractions of seston and particulate matter.     

Governing fisheries as complex adaptive systems

Fisheries are complex human-in-nature systems. The conventional approach to fisheries systems has been to treat them as predictable and controllable. As complex systems they are neither of the two and have to be approached differently. Complex systems often exhibit the capacity to self-organize or adapt, even without outside influence. If this is true of fisheries, it should lead to a radically different approach to management of fisheries systems that places much emphasis on enabling self-organization, learning and adaptation. Conceptual and practical frameworks for enabling activities are needed.     

Chiral composites as underwater acoustic attenuators

A plane-wave propagation in an elastic matrix containing the structural chiral microstructures is employed to model the dynamic response of a particles-mixture composite. Two nondispersive longitudinal wavenumbers and four dispersive circularly polarized transverse wavenumbers result from the dispersion equation of the so-called effective chiral (isotropic, noncentrosymmetric) composite. Our previous research indicated both that two transition frequencies divide the frequency spectrum of the transverse wavenumbers into three varying groups and that the four transverse modes can be distinguished only in a specified frequency range. This study illustrates the reflected and transmitted characteristics at a fluid-chiral interface at certain frequencies. The reflected and transmitted fields at the fluid-isotropic interface are solved to depict the effects of the chirality. The chiral material should instigate a reducible reflected plane wave and may be used as an anechoic coating to “absorb” sound underwater, due to the mode conversion of the chirality in the chiral medium     

Bubbles as sources of ambient noise

It has been shown that the main mechanism which produces the Knudsen region of the ambient noise spectrum is the free oscillations of bubbles. Some experimental results which seem to confirm these facts and to refute various alternative theories involving spray impacts and turbulent forcing of bubble oscillations are described. The results show that the mechanism which excites the bubbles is their formation at the surface; once a bubble has been formed and has radiated the excess energy resulting from its formation, it is more or less silent. It is possible for extremely violent conditions to re-excite bubbles by breaking them into smaller fractions, but it is not clear how important this process would be in the ocean. How the entrainment process imparts energy to the bubble is discussed
