Compensatory Growth In Sea Bass ( Dicentrarchus Labrax), Sea Bream ( Sparus Aurata) And Rainbow Trout ( Oncorhynchus Mykiss), Temel Şahi̇n, Bi̇lal Akbulut, Muharrem Aksungur
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The effects of a period of starvation and subsequent refeeding on the weight and length of sea bass, sea bream and rainbow trout reared at 17%o salinity and at different temperatures were investigated. The fish were starved for 3 weeks and then fed ad libitum by hand for 3 weeks in the 3 periods studied. The study provided evidence of the adaptation of the fish to starvation followed by what may be termed compensatory growth once feeding was resumed. The length changes of the fish indicate that the weight gains were due to grojth rather than increases in gut fat …

Histological And Histochemical Studies On The Extensor Muscle Of The Pectoral Fin Of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss), Fati̇me Geyi̇koğlu, Abdullah Özkaral

In this study, taking the extensor muscle out of the pectoral fin of trout, lipid and mitochondria contents of muscle fibres were examined. Succinic dehydrogenase and Sudan black B stain methods were applied on the sections removed by freezing microtomy. Haematoxylen and eosin staining were also applied on the sections obtained from paraffin blocks. It was observed histologically that nuclei of muscle fibre were located just under the sarcolemma. Three types of fibres red, intermediate and white were identified by the applied histochemical methods. It was observed that this muscle was rich in red and intermediate fibres. As a result, …
