چکیده

Temperature-induced changes in cardiac output (Q̇) in fish are largely dependent on thermal modulation of heart rate (fH), and at high temperatures Q̇ collapses due to heat-dependent depression of fH This study tests the hypothesis that firing rate of sinoatrial pacemaker cells sets the upper thermal limit of fH in vivo. To this end, temperature dependence of action potential (AP) frequency of enzymatically isolated pacemaker cells (pacemaker rate, fPM), spontaneous beating rate of isolated sinoatrial preparations (fSA), and in vivo fH of the cold-acclimated (4°C) brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) were compared under acute thermal challenges. With rising temperature, fPM steadily increased because of the acceleration of diastolic depolarization and shortening of AP duration up to the break point temperature (TBP) of 24.0 ± 0.37°C, at which point the electrical activity abruptly ceased. The maximum fPM at TBP was much higher [193 ± 21.0 beats per minute (bpm)] than the peak fSA (94.3 ± 6.0 bpm at 24.1°C) or peak fH (76.7 ± 2.4 at 15.7 ± 0.82°C) (P < 0.05). These findings strongly suggest that the frequency generator of the sinoatrial pacemaker cells does not limit fH at high temperatures in the brown trout in vivo.

Growth and mortality of brown trout, Salmo trutta fario in Lar dam, Iran

    The length-weight relationship, age, growth parameters, sex ratio, mortality and exploitation rate of Salmo trutta fario were determined in Lar dam. The sex ratio (male: female) was 1:1.84 which differed significantly from the expected 1:1. The length-weight regression was (females) and (males) indicating a negative allometric growth for both sexes. Growth parameters were estimated as L∞ = ...

Feeding behavior of brown trout, Salmo trutta fario, during spawning season in four rivers of Lar National Park, Iran

Brown trout, Salmo trutta fario, has a wide range of distribution in the north of Iran and in Karaj, Lighvanchai and Karun Rivers, but there is no report about its feeding behavior in some water resources including the Lar Natural Park. In order to study feeding behavior of this fish during spawning season, a survey was carried out in the rivers of Elarm, Aab-Sefid, Kamardasht and Delichayi in ...
