    Notes: Abstract The c-type cytochrome and protein profiles were compared for a number of cultures of Paracoccus denitrificans obtained from a range of culture collections. The cultures fell into two groups corresponding to the two original isolates of this bacterial species. One group, which included NCIMB 8944, ATCC 13543, ATCC 17741, ATCC 19367, Pd 1222 and DSM 413, were similar or identical to LMD 22.21. The second group, including DSM 65 and LMG 4218, were similar or identical to LMD 52.44. These groupings were not compatible with the recorded history of culture deposition. Mass spectrometry and amino acid sequence comparisons showed that the cytochrome c-550 of the LMD 52.44 culture group differed by 16% from that of the LMD 22.21 group, and yet was only 1% different from the cytochrome c-550 of Thiosphaera pantotropha. These results suggest that consideration should be given to creation of a new species of Paracoccus pantotropha, which would include Thiosphaera pantotropha and Paracoccus denitrificans LMD 52.44.

    Notes: The nonvolatile acids were extracted from lychee, separated by TLC and identified as levulinic, malic and citric. GLC of the methyl esters of the acids confirmed the presence of levulinic, malic and citric acids and revealed traces of lactic, malonic, fumaric and succinic acids. GLC of the TMS derivatives of the acids confirmed the presence of succinic, malic, levulinic and citric acids and revealed the presence of phosphoric and glutaric. Quantitative analysis by GLC showed that malic was the most abundant acid in lychee; other acids occurred in much lower quantities.

    Notes: Starches in the juices of yellow passion fruit, Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa, and purple passion fruit, P. edulis f. edulis, were isolated and characterized. Starch granule sizes for the yellow variety (7.8 μm) and purple variety (6.4 μm) were similar. Gelation temperature ranges for the yellow variety (58.5–67.0 ° c) and purple variety (58.5–66.5 ° C) were also similar. The amylose content was slightly higher in the yellow variety (8.7%) than in the purple variety (5.8%). Viscosity differences between juices of the two varieties after treatment with heat and α-amylase were attributed to differences in pH and starch content between the yellow variety (pH 2.8, 0.06% starch) and the purple variety (pH 4.2, 0.74% starch). α-amylase was effective in reducing the viscosity of passion fruit juice in which the starches are gelatinized.

    Notes: Abstract— Wild-caught, adult summer flounder Paralichthys dentatus (avg. wt. = 740 g; range = 264–1,540 g; N= 60), collected in northeastern US coastal waters during October 1994, were transported to Vero Beach, Florida in March 1995 and held in 2.6-m3 indoor tanks through November 1995 under two artificial photothermal regimes: (1) natural regime, simulating natural habitat conditions; and (2) accelerated thermal regime, with seasonal temperature changes advanced by one month. A third group of fish was held in outdoor tanks under ambient photothermal conditions. Under all photothermal conditions, onset of vitellogenesis was associated with declining daylength and temperature, beginning in the accelerated group, then progressing to the natural and the ambient groups. From 20 September to 28 November 1995, 23 vitellogenic stage females from the accelerated and natural regimes were implanted with a cholesterol-cellulose pellet containing LHRH-a (100 μg/kg body wt). Females with initial mean oocyte diameters ranging from 258–456 μm spawned voluntarily 2.5–5.5 d postimplantation, while no maturational response was obtained from females with mean diameters ranging from 165–231 μm. Two females were spawned twice during the study period by LHRH-a pellet implantation. Infrequent, natural spawning without hormone intervention was also obtained. Females released from 22.7–396.9 × 103 eggs on the first day of spawning, with fertilization and hatching rates of 0–93.470 and 0–81.1%, respectively.

    Notes: Two 10-day hatchery experiments were conducted to evaluate s-type (Hawaiian strain) and ss-type (Thailand strain) rotifers Brachionus plicatilis and cryogenically preserved oyster Crassostrea gigas trochophores as first feeds for larval Nassau grouper Epinephelus striatus. Newly hatched grouper larvae were reared at densities of 11.2–20.8/L in 500-L tanks at 36–38 ppt salinity, 25–26 C, and under a 11-h light: 13-h dark photoperiod. Beginning on day 2 posthatching (d2ph), prey were maintained at a density of 20 individuals/mL, while phytoplankton (Nanochloropsis oculata) was maintained at 500 × 103 cells/mL. In experiment 1, survival and growth were higher (P 〈 0.05) for fish fed small s-type rotifers (mean lorica length = 117 μm; fish survival = 7.96%) selected by sieving than for fish fed non-selected rotifers (mean lorica length = 161 μm; fish survival = 2.13%). These results demonstrated the advantage of small prey size and suggested that super-small (ss-type) rotifer strains would be beneficial. In experiment 2, three feeding regimens were compared: 1) ss-type rotifers (mean lorica length = 147 μm); 2) oyster trochophores (mean diameter = 50 μm) gradually replaced by ss-type rotifers from d5ph; and 3) a mixed-prey teatment of 50% oyster trochophores and 50% ss-type rotifers. Survival was higher (P 〈 0.05) for larvae fed mixed prey (15.6%) than for those fed rotifers (9.73%) or trochophores and rotifers in sequence (2.55%), which also showed the slowest growth. Oyster trochophores, although inadequate when used exclusively, enhanced survival when used in combination with rotifers, possibly by improving size selectivity and dietary quality. In a pilot-scale trial, larvae were cultured through metamorphosis in two 33.8-m3 outdoor tanks. Fertilized eggs were stocked at a density of 10 eggs/L and larvae were fed ss-type rotifers from d2ph-d20ph, newly hatched Artemia from d15ph-d18ph, 1-d-old Artemia nauplii from d18ph-d62ph. Survival on d62ph was 1.17%, with a total of 5,651 post-metamorphic juveniles produced.

    Notes: Growth and feed utilization of juvenile, hatchery-reared mutton snapper Lutjanus analis (mean weight = 12.2 g) were compared for 40 d in laboratory aquaria on four isonitrogenous diets (45% crude protein) of varying lipid content (6, 9, 12 and 15%) with energy:protein ratios (E: P; kJ/g protein) of 33.9, 36.3, 38.8, and 41.2, respectively. Growth on these diets was compared under temperatures of 25 and 30 C. Final weights (Wtr) and specific growth rates (SGR) were higher (P 〈 0.05) at lower dietary E: P ratios of 33.9 and 36.3 (Wtr= 20.3–22.0 g; SGR = 1.25–1.35%/d) than at E:P ratios of 38.8 and 41.2 (Wtr= 17.2-17.7 g; SGR = 0.84–0.85%/d). Growth at 30 C (Wtr= 21.5 g, SGR = 1.35%/d) was higher (P 〈 0.05) than at 25 C (Wtr= 17.3 g; SGR = 0.82%/d). Feed consumption (FC) was higher (P 〈 0.05) at a dietary E: P ratio of 33.9 (1.57%/d) than at 36.3 (1.27%/d) or 38.8–41.2 (0.89–0.98%/d). Growth was highly correlated (P 〈 0.01) to E: P ratio and to feed consumption. Feed conversion ratio (FCR = 2.17–3.98), protein efficiency ratio (PER = 0.58–1.03) and apparent net protein retention (ANPR = 15.8–20.0%) were not significantly (P 〉 0.05) affected by dietary E: P ratio. Apparent net energy retention (ANER) was higher (P 〈 0.05) at E: P ratios of 33.9 and 36.3 (9.50–9.98%) than at E: P ratios of 38.8 and 41.2 (7.15–7.10%). Feed utilization parameters were significantly (P 〈 0.05) better at 30 C (FC = 1.36%/d; FCR = 2.6; PER = 0.88; ANER = 10.2%) than at 25 C (FC = 1.03%/d; FCR = 3.38; PER = 0.69; ANER = 6.72%), with the exception of ANPR (17.0–17.8%). Maximum growth and energy retention in juvenile mutton snapper using a diet containing 45% crude protein was obtained at dietary lipid levels of 6–9% and E: P ratios of 33.9–36.3 kJ/g protein. Studies which determine optimum protein levels and the effects of reducing E: P ratios below 33.9 kJ/g are needed to improve feed conversion and growth.

    Notes: Abstract Wild-caught mutton snapper Lutjanus analis, a high-value marine food fish species, matured in flow-through seawater (36 g/L) tanks after 3 yr in captivity. On 31 May 1995, a female with a mean oocyte diameter of 382 μm was injected with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) (500 IU/kg body wt.) followed 24 h later by a second injection (1,000 IU/kg body wt.). At the time of the second injection, three males were injected with HCG (500 IU/ kg body wt.). Voluntary spawning occurred 33 h after the first injection, with a total of 534, 781 eggs released. Fertilization rate was 75.7%, while average diameter of fertilized eggs was 783 μm. Embryos were stocked in a 30-m3 outdoor tank at a density of 10.5/L. On day 2 post-hatching (d2ph), larval density was 8.61 larvae/L, and average notochord length was 2.6 mm. Larvae were fed ss-type rotifers from dl-d28ph, Artemia nauplii from 0–08ph, and artificial diets (52–48% protein) from d24-d38ph. On d38ph, fish averaged 0.308 g and 22.2 mm standard length. Survival (from d2ph) was 14.3%, with a total of 36,900 post-metamorphic juveniles produced. On d97ph, 1,390 hatchery-reared juveniles (avg. wt. = 10.5 g) were stocked into two 14.5-m3 recirculating seawater tanks (695 fish/tank; 48 fish/m3) and fed a 56% protein pellet. After 168 d, fish averaged 140.8 g, with a survival rate of 97.8% and a feed conversion ratio (dry wt./wet wt.) of 1.2. These preliminary results reveal the mutton snapper to be a prime, new candidate species for commercial cultivation.

    Notes: A study was conducted to evaluate alternative protein supplements that could be used to reduce the cost of formulated crayfish diets. Red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii were held in the laboratory for 9 wk and fed 30% crude protein diets containing isonitrogenous mixtures of plant and animal protein in a 65:35 ratio. Combinations tested were: soybean meal/menhaden fish meal (SOY/FSH); cottonseed meal/menhaden fish meal (COT/FSH); soybean meal/meat and bone meal (SOY/MB); cottonseed mealheat and bone meal (COT/MB); soybean meal/meat and bone meal/ blood meal (SOYIMB-B); and cottonseed meal/meat and bone meal/blood meal (COTIMB-B). Comparison of crayfish weight gain, feed efficiency ratio, apparent net protein and energy retention, and body composition indicated that SOY/FSH was the best protein combination tested. Weight gain was reduced when cottonseed meal replaced soybean meal in diets that contained either fish meal or meat and bone meal. Feed consumption of crayfish fed SOY/MB-B and COT/MB-B was lower than that of crayfish fed other diets containing the same plant-protein supplement and weight gain was lower in crayfish fed blood meal in all but one case. Differences in amino acid composition and amino acid availability of protein supplements, inhibitory effects of gossypol in cottonseed meal, and reduced consumption of diets containing blood meal could have contributed to diet effects. Results suggest that soybean meal is a better dietary protein source for crayfish than cottonseed meal, menhaden fish meal is better than meat and bone meal, and both fish meal and meat and bone meal are superior to a 60:40 meat and bone meal/blood meal mixture. However, cottonseed meal, meat and bone meal, and meat and bone meal/blood meal mixtures could be useful as lower-cost alternatives to soybean meal and fish meal in diets for pond-raised crayfish, since the apparent lower protein (amino acid) quality of these ingredients would be unlikely to depress growth of crayfish that have access to natural food in ponds.
