Studies on perispawning mortalities in brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) from Loch Leven, Kinross, ScotlandRichards, Randolph Harvey January 1980 (has links)
Investigations into perispawning mortalities in the brown trout (Salmo trutta L) population of Loch Leven, Kinross, revealed that death occurred as a result of infection with a particular species of Saprolegnia diclina Humphrey type 1. Increased surface area of infection was correlated with a decrease in ion and protein content of the blood and was further reflected by changes in the electrocardiogram pattern. These changes were essentially a widening of the QRS complex with inflection of the RS component, changes consistent with a decrease in certain ions in mammals. Histological changes associated with sexual maturity and fungal infection are described and compared with changes resulting from the administration of androgens to brown trout.

The morphology of the cellular constituents of the blood of Salmo truttaSargent, Kathleen S. January 1963 (has links)
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University / The morphology of the cellular constituents of the blood of Salmo trutta was investigated. Blood cell counts and differential counts were included. Cellular elements of the blood were found to be nucleated erythrocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes and thrombocytes. Dried smears of blood which had been stained with Wright's stain indicated the erythrocytes were flat elliptical cells . However, the phase microscope revealed the biconcave shape of the mature erythrocyte, the concavity being interrupted by the central nucleus. Average cell rreasurements were 16.5 microns in length and 10.2 microns in width. [TRUNCATED]

Comparison between the subsurface environment of brown trout (Salmo trutta) redd and nonredd sites in two North Carolina streamsPorter, Pamela E. January 1985 (has links)
The gravel environment of 30 brown trout (Salmo trutta) redds and adjacent nonredd sites in two western North Carolina streams were studied during the incubation period in 1979-1980 and 1980-1981. Intragravel water temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, and percent oxygen saturation were highly correlated with surface water measurements, indicating that intragravel water is of surface origin. Permeability ranged from 250 to 149,350 cm/hr and averaged 6,150 cm/hr. Apparent velocity varied from 0 to 1,000 cm/hr and averaged 30 cm/hr. Permeability in redds was significantly greater than at nonredd sites. No significant differences in apparent velocity were found between redd and nonredd sites. No consistent differences in permeability or apparent velocity were found between streams or over time. Permeability and apparent velocity decreased significantly with depth.
Freeze cores were collected from redd and nonredd sites and divided into three 10-cm layers for analysis. Geometric mean diameter, sorting coefficient, fredle index, percent fines <2.00 mm, and percent porosity were highly variable and averaged 11.8 mm, 2.8, 4.2, 17.0 percent, and 19.0 percent, respectively. No significant differences were found among factors tested. Correlations between these gravel indices and permeability and apparent velocity were low. The gravel and intragravel environments appeared to be adequate for larval survival. Measurements did not reveal any clear trends during the incubation period. Brown trout did not by choice or redd construction appear to select or create (by redd construction) a subsurface environment different from the surrounding stream bed. / M.S.

The post-stocking behaviour of hatchery-reared brown trout (Salmo trutta L.)Deverill, James Ian January 2000 (has links)
Stocking, transfer and introductions of hatchery-reared salmonids are commonly used to enhance recreational or commercial fisheries and to preserve or re-establish threatened populations (Cowx, 1994). Whilst a lot of effort has been directed toward understanding the production and stocking methods of hatchery-reared salmonids, relatively little is known about the post-stocking survival and behaviour of these fish (Hickley, 1994). In particular there is little available information concerning the post-stocking dietary habits, dispersion and behaviour of hatchery-reared brown trout; particularly following release into standing waters. Consequently, a study was instigated to examine the relative post-stocking dispersion and temporal changes in the diets of hatchery-reared brown trout released to support a commercial recreational fishery, Carron Valley Reservoir. Further laboratory studies examined if resident brown trout display a prior-resident competitive advantage over stocked conspecifics, if hatchery-reared brown trout display non-cost effective aggressive behaviour and the short-term changes in the feeding efficiency of naive hatchery-reared brown trout when experiencing novel prey. 1000 commercially produced hatchery-reared brown trout were marked with a subcutaneous alcian blue tattoo and released into Carron Valley Reservoir at the start of the 1999 fishing season. Stomach samples were taken from angler recaptured hatchery-reared fish along with consecutively captured resident brown trout. The diets of the two groups were compared to assess the relative post-stocking temporal changes in the diets of the hatchery-reared brown trout. This study found hatchery-reared brown trout to consume lower weights and numbers of prey, and they appeared to exhibit a preconditioned 'look up' dietary response to surface prey immediately following release than resident conspecifics. It was further observed that although hatchery-reared brown trout did not immediately adapt to natural diets, their relative foraging efficiency increased over the sample period. In laboratory experiments naive hatchery-reared brown trout further demonstrated the improved feeding efficiency with experience. 1000 commercially produced hatchery-reared brown trout were tagged with a combination of Visible Implant (VI) and 'Floy' style tags prior to release during the 1998,1999 and 2000 fishing seasons. An angler survey programme was instigated to record the reported recapture positions of these tagged fish in order to assess the post-stocking gross dispersion patterns of hatchery-reared brown trout in Carron Valley Reservoir. A further 3 trout were radiotagged to elucidate the fine scale post-stocking dispersion of these fish. This study found hatchery-reared brown trout to disperse quickly from their respective release sites, although over a relatively restricted area. Individual hatchery-reared brown trout were observed to exhibit high levels of activity immediately following release, during which period they covered relatively large total distances within a relatively restricted area. In an artificial stream environment, established wild brown trout displayed a prior-resident competitive advantage over later introductions of both hatchery-reared and wild conspecifics. Established wild fish initiated more aggressive acts and maintained home stations closer to a point source of feed than introduced trout. Introduced hatchery-reared brown trout were more aggressive and exhibited a lower mean specific growth rate than simultaneously stocked wild conspecifics, suggesting that excessive expenditure of energy for unnecessary aggression may contribute to the poor post-stocking survival in hatchery-reared brown trout.

Dietary exposure of 1,2-dibromo-4-(1,2-dibromoethyl)cyclohexane to juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta): bioaccumulation parameters and effects on circulating plasma sex hormonesGemmill, Bonnie 08 September 2010 (has links)
1,2-Dibromo-4-(1,2 dibromoethyl)cyclohexane or tetrabromoethylcyclohexane (TBECH) is an additive bromine based flame retardant used primarily in expandable polystyrene beads that are used mainly to produce thermal insulation for housing. Secondary uses include extrusion into polystyrene foam, adhesive in fabric and vinyl lamination, electrical cable coatings and construction materials. The technical formulation contains two diastereoisomers, α- and β-, which are present in equimolar amounts. Under elevated temperatures two other isomers, γ- and δ-, can be formed. The recent detection of TBECH in the environment and suggestions that all four isomers are androgenic prompted me to examine the bioaccumulation and biochemical effects of one of the isomers, β-, in a controlled laboratory environment. I purposely chose to examine this isomer as it has been detected in biota. Juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta) were exposed to three different amounts of the β-isomer via their to three different amounts of the β-isomer via their food for 56 days (uptake phase). This was followed by a depuration phase in which all fish were exposed to unfortified food for 77 days. A fourth group of fish were exposed to unfortified food for the duration of the experiment. On days 0, 7, 14, 35, 49, 56, 63, 77, 91, 105, and 133 eight fish from each treatment group were sacrificed and liver, plasma, thyroid and gonad gland were collected and whole-fish (carcass minus tissues above) were collected. Residues of β-isomer were analyzed in the whole-fish and in liver extracts by gas chromatography mass spectrometry in the electron ionization while estradiol (E2), 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT) and testosterone (T) were extracted from plasma and analysed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The bioaccumulation of β-isomer was similar in fish from all treatment groups with steady-state occurring before the end of the uptake phase. Depuration of the β-isomer from fish obeyed first order kinetics and there were no statistically significant differences in the depuration half life (t1/2) among the treatment groups: 22.5 ± 10.4 (low), 13.5 ± 5.9 (med) and 13.8 ± 2.2 (high) days. Steady-state biomagnification factors were much smaller than 1 for fish in all treatment groups. I was unable to detect debrominated metabolites in liver or whole-fish extracts and I also found no evidence of isomerization of the β-isomer to other isoforms in vivo. While there were some differences in E2, T and 11-KT levels in plasma of fish from the treated groups relative to plasma in fish from the control group there were no clear, consistent, discerning trends.
