[Method] The grass carps were treated with hexavalent chromium (Cr^6+) solution at concentrations of 0, 7.23, 14.47, 28.94 mg/L, and then the content of malondialde- hyde (MDA), the level of total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC) and the activity of gtu- tathione-S-transferase (GST) in the hepatopancreas of grass carp were determined after 96 hours in different treatment groups. [Result] The content of MDA presented increasing trend with the increase of exposure Cr^6+ concentrations. The activity of T-AOC increased firstly, then decreased with the increasing Cr^6+ exposure concentra- tions, showing that the level of T-AOC was induced in tow and medium concentrat ions (7.23 and 14.47 mg/L), but inhibited in high concentrations (28.94 mg/L). Among the exposure groups, the level of T-AOC in medium concentration group (14.47 mg/L) was significantly higher than the control (P〈0.05). Except the low concentration groups (7.23 mg/L) of which the GST activity was slightly induced, the GST activities of the other groups all showed downward trend with increasing Cr^6+ levels, and the activity of GST in 28.94 mg/L group was significantly lower than the control group (P〈0.05). [Conclusion] Cr^6+ could cause large oxidative damage in the hepatopancreas of grass carp, thus poisoning it, and Cr^6+ may further damage the organizational structure and physiological function of grass carp.展开更多

Ctenopharyngodon idellus. was exposed in differentconcentrations of meothrin nearby 24h LC_(50) and its gill morphology was examined by light and elec-tron microscopy. The results indicate that meothrin caused fish convulsions. cough, ataxia,intermittent paralysis and overtumed. Morphological examination revealved severe alterations to com-pare with control fish. These initially consisted in hypertrophy of the secondary lamellae, andfinally resulted in local telangiectasia, fusion between secondary lamellae.Ultrustiuctural changes in the gills showed the pillar cell system collapse and resulted in largenon-tissue spaces which were invaded by leucocytes. The cytoplasin of the epithelial cells appearedmany myelin figures, electron dense deposits. Chloride cells were severely damaged with a degeneratedmitochondria and nuclear membrane. Higher concentration of meothrin caused a loss of adhesion be-tween the epithelial cells. accompanied by a collapsing of the structural integrity of the primarylamellae and degenerating of epithelial and chloride cells .展开更多

[ Method] We conducted hybridization between Ctenopharyngodon ideUus ( ♀ ) and Elopichthys bambusa ♂ ) by artificial methods. The process of embryo and postembryonic development were observed and recorded. [ Result ] The fertilization rate, hatching rate and survival rate of the hybrid F1 were (75.8 ± 6. 2)%, (41.9 ± 8.2)% and (9.3± 3.7)%, respectively. At the water temperature of 20.1 -21.6℃, the larvae was hatched for about 34 h and 25 rain after fertilization. The whole length of newly-hatched larvae of the hybrid Fl was (5.8 ± 0.12) mm. The larvae could feed rotifer and unicellular algae after 3 or 4 days hatching. Postembryonic development of the hybrid at the formation of scales, lasted for 65 days when the young was(74.0 ± 2.1 ) mm in whole length. [ Conclusion] The embryonic development of hybrid F1 was intermediate to their parents, the form of the hybrid F1 was similar to that of their female line of grass carp. The growth rate of larva was faster than that of grass carp and similar to that of their paternal fish.展开更多
