This study compared the hematological characteristics of diploid and triploid of jundia, Rhamdia quelen juveniles, an important freshwater fish cultured in south Brazil. Hematological morphometry of erythrocytes were determined in blood smears under a light microscope. The blood was used to measure the number of red blood cells (RBC) with a hemocytometer Neubauer chamber, and the numbers of white blood cells (WBC) and thrombocytes that were obtained using an indirect method. The results showed that triploidy increased (p < 0.01) the size and volume of the erythrocytes. Nevertheless, as expected, triploidy decreased (p < 0.01) the number of circulating erythrocytes, leucocytes and trombocytes in the blood of jundia. Moreover differential cell counts were different in diploids and triploids, suggesting that triploidy affects the number of cells and their proportion in blood. Lymphocytes were the most predominant cells in the differential counting of diploid fish (62.5%) while monocytes were predominant in triploid fish (49.6%). These results suggest performance differences between ploidies of jundia, and require future studies to evaluate the potential of triploid jundia in the culture conditions and resistance to infection.Keywords: Rhamdia quelen, triploid, diploid, blood cells. Triploidia na hematologia de juvenis de jundiá (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae)Resumo O presente estudo comparou características hematológicas de juvenis de jundiás Rhamdia quelen diploides e triploides, um importante peixe de água doce cultivado no sul do Brasil. A morfometria hematológica dos eritrócitos foi determinada em extensões sanguíneas sob microscopia óptica comum. O sangue dos animais foi também utilizado para mensurar o número total de eritrócitos em câmera de Neubauer, bem como os números totais de leucócitos e trombócitos pelo método indireto. Os resultados demonstraram que a triploidia aumentou (p < 0,01) o tamanho e volume dos eritrócitos. No entanto, como esperado, a triploidia reduziu (p < 0,01) o número de eritrócitos, leucócitos e trombócitos circulantes do jundiá. Além disto, a contagem diferencial de células sanguíneas foi diferente em diploides e triploides, sugerindo que a triploidia afeta o número das células, bem como sua proporção no sangue. Linfócitos foram as células predominantes na contagem de leucócitos de peixes diploides (62,5%), enquanto os monócitos foram os predominantes nos peixes triploides (49,6%). Estes resultados sugerem desempenhos diferentes entre as ploidias do jundiá e exige estudos futuros para avaliar o potencial dos jundiás triploides sob condições de cultivo e frente à infecção.Palavras-chave: Rhamdia quelen, triploide, diploide, células sanguíneas.
In the framework of the generator coordinate method (GCM), and utilizing an appropriate ansatz for the generator states and an effective many-body Skyrme interaction, we derive analytically the collective Hamiltonians for the giant dipole resonance mode of 16O and 40Ca. The eigenfunctions, eigenvalues and relevant physical quantities are obtained. The collective spectra are analysed and the GCM results for 40Ca are compared with pion double-charge-exchange data for the double giant dipole resonance.
