Phenotypic sex differentiation of blue tilapia under constant and fluctuating thermal regimes and its adaptive and evolutionary implications

Abstract: Oreochromis aureus exposed during the first 28 days of exogenous feeding to constant 35° C, or fluctuating temperatures (day at 35° C, night at 27° C, and vice versa) showed significantly (P<0·05) faster growth, least size heterogeneity and better survival rates than siblings under constant 27° C. Constant high temperatures had a strong masculinizing effect (M: F sex ratios of 7·33–19·00: 1·00 v. 0·75–0·82: 1·00 in controls reared at 27° C). Fluctuating temperatures had less masculinizing potential but still p… Show more

“…However, there are many studies reporting the increased occurrence of intersex in gonochoristic of teleost fish as a result of exposure to EDCs (Devlin & Nagahama, 2002;Godwin, 2010;Bahamonde et al, 2013), even in other catfish species, for example, Pangasius nasutus, Heteropneustes fossilis, Clarias gariepinus (Rodriguez et al, 2012). Intersex condition can also be attributed to environmental conditions, i.e., thermolabile sex determination (Baras et al, 2000;Strüssmann & Nakamura, 2002;Hurley et al, 2004). The region of S. parahybae distribution, the Paraíba do Sul River Basin, is impaired by the presence of chemicals that are used in agriculture (i.e., pesticides and herbicide and their metabolites) and/or other chemicals from domestic or industrial pollution, therefore we cannot exclude the possibility of intersex occurrence due to endocrine disruption.…”

“…Zanardi et al (2011), que avaliaram o desempenho produtivo e reversão sexual em tilápias em dois métodos hormonal, encontraram taxas de sobrevivência entre 46,06 a 54,29%. Maiores taxas de sobrevivência foram obtidos por Baras, Prignon, Méalard (2000) e Makino et al (2010), que verificaram taxas de sobrevivência superiores a 76 e 77%, respectivamente. Tachibana et al (2004) É possível que a maior sobrevivência de pós-larvas de tilápias suplementadas com AminoGut ® esteja relacionada a função da glutamina em melhorar a imunidade.…”

“…As larvas foram alimentadas, diariamente, a uma freqüência de arraçoamento de cinco vezes ao dia (Sanches e Hayashi, 2001), com uma ração (Tabela 1) farelada (Meurer et al, 2003), atendendo às exigências nutricionais da espécie segundo Hayashi et al (2002), com 38,5% de proteína digestível e 3800kcal de energia digestível. Os alimentos utilizados na formulação da ração foram processados de acordo com Hayashi et al (1999 A temperatura das caixas foi controlada durante o período de cultivo pela utilização de resistências elétricas, de modo a manter esse parâmetro por volta de 27ºC, evitando assim problemas que pudessem mascarar os resultados, como a masculinização devido à exposição a altas temperaturas (Chardard et al, 1995;Desprez e Mélard, 1998;Baras et al, 2000Baras et al, , 2001Baroiller et al, 2000;Baroiller e D´Cotta, 2001). Diariamente, pela manhã e pela tarde, foi mensurada amplitude térmica ( o C) com um termômetro de mercúrio com escala de precisão de 1ºC.…”
