Seasonal variations in the lipid composition of the steelhead trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, associated with the parr‐smolt transformation

Abstract: Total lipid and lipid class composition of selected tissues and serum were determined for juvenile steelhead trout Sulmo guirdneri, during the smolting period between 25 January and 19 April 1982. The total lipid content ofthe serum, liver, light muscle and dark muscle was significantly depleted during smolt transformation. Mesenteric fat total lipid concentration fluctuated little over the sampling period. Phospholipids of muscle and mesenteric fat exhibited little seasonality. Cholesterol was significantly d… Show more

“…Alterations in tissue fatty acid composition of sea lamprey accompanying their metamorphosis from freshwater ammocoetes to freshwater macropthalmia reported here are unlike those associated with the smoltification of salmonid fishes which transform from freshwater parr to freshwater smolt (Sheridan et al, 1985). For example, fluctuating 18:2v6 levels, lower 22:6v3 levels, higher BCSFA levels and undetectable 20:5v3 occurred in the macropthalmia liver.…”

“…In teleost fish, fatty acid composition has been suggested to reflect osmoregulatory pre-adaptation (Sheridan et al, 1985), dietary source, nutritional status, lipid utilization, fatty acid metabolism, and, perhaps, other environmental (e.g. thermal) and physiological (e.g.…”

“…the fatty acids that contributed for the separation of the three river basins were 16:0, 18:4ω3 and 24:1ω9 (table 5). diSCuSSion in teleost fish, fatty acid composition has been suggested to reflect osmo-regulatory pre-adaptation (Sheridan et al, 1985), dietary source, nutritional status, lipid utilisation, fatty acid metabolism and other environmental and physiological parameters (Henderson and tocher, 1987;Hoch, 1988). it is well known that in fish tissues the fatty acid composition of triacylglycerols, and to a lesser extent of phospholipids, is determined by diet composition and lipid metabolism (Henderson and tocher, 1987;Sargent et al, 1989;linko et al, 1992;Peng et al, 2003) and that the fatty acid composition of diet influences tissues differently, with great impact in triacylglycerol rich tissues (Joensen et al, 2000).…”

“…The relationship of lipid features between muscle and liver is limited to some species of cultured fish. 4,7,[13][14][15] In the present study, we examined the characteristics of lipid accumulation in muscle and liver in five species of fish, which are im portant for cultured fish, and tried to classify them into two types with different lipid ratios of muscle to liver.…”
