| improving consumption rate estimates by incorporating wild activity into a bioenergetics model. | consumption is the basis of metabolic and trophic ecology and is used to assess an animal's trophic impact. the contribution of activity to an animal's energy budget is an important parameter when estimating consumption, yet activity is usually measured in captive animals. developments in telemetry have allowed the energetic costs of activity to be measured for wild animals; however, wild activity is seldom incorporated into estimates of consumption rates. we calculated the consumption rate of a ... | 2016 | 27069576 |
| the influence of finfish aquaculture on benthic fish and crustacean assemblages in fitzgerald bay, south australia. | the influence of sea-cage aquaculture on wildfish assemblages has received little attention outside of europe. sea-cage aquaculture of finfish is a major focus in south australia, and while the main species farmed is southern bluefin tuna (thunnus maccoyii), there is also an important yellowtail kingfish (seriola lalandi) industry. yellowtail kingfish aquaculture did not appear to have any local or regional effects on demersal assemblages (primarily fish, but also some crustaceans) surveyed by b ... | 2015 | 26401452 |
| praziquantel treatment for yellowtail kingfish (seriola lalandi): dose and duration safety study. | regulatory approval is being sought to use praziquantel (pzq) to treat flukes infecting yellowtail kingfish (ytk), but accurate safety data were not available. we investigated the effect of increased doses or prolonged exposure of orally administered pzq on ytk by assessing changes in haematological and biochemical characteristics, and mortality. fish were intubated daily for 3 days with 0, 100, 300 and 500 mg pzq kg(-1) bw day(-1) or once daily for 9 days at 0 and 100 mg pzq kg(-1) bw day(-1). ... | 2016 | 26314575 |

| dietary fish oil replacement with canola oil up-regulates glutathione peroxidase 1 gene expression in yellowtail kingfish (seriola lalandi). | the marine carnivore yellowtail kingfish (ytk, seriola lalandi) was fed diets containing 5% residual fish oil (from the dietary fish meal) plus either 20% fish oil (fo), 20% canola oil (co), 20% poultry oil (po), 10% fish oil plus 10% canola oil (fo/co) or 10% fish oil plus 10% poultry oil (fo/po) and the effects on fish growth and hepatic expression of two glutathione peroxidase (gpx 1 and gpx 4) and two peroxiredoxin (prx 1 and prx 4) antioxidant genes were investigated. partial (50%) replacem ... | 2012 | 22521527 |
| structural characterization of carangid fish myoglobins. | the primary structures of myoglobin (mb) from the following five carangid species were determined: yellowtail seriola quinqueradiata, greater amberjack seriola dumerili, yellowtail kingfish seriola lalandi, japanese horse mackerel trachurus japonicus, and silver trevally pseudocaranx dentex. the sequences were of varying composition both in the coding and in the noncoding regions, but all contained the open reading frame of 444 nucleotides encoding 147 amino acids. amino acid sequence identities ... | 2012 | 22361749 |
| the genus rhadinorhynchus (acanthocephala: rhadinorhynchidae) from marine fish in australia with the description of four new species. | species of rhadinorhynchus, collected from australian waters were examined. specimens of rhadinorhynchus from scorpis aequipinnis, girella tricuspidata, johnius australis and grammatobothus polyophthalmus could not be identified further. new host and locality records are reported for r. bicircumspinus found in trachurus declivis and rexea solandri from the east coast of tasmania; r. carangis found in trachinotus bailonii and t. copperingi from queensland and western australian coasts; r. polynem ... | 2014 | 25236286 |
