“…Beginning 24 h post-hCG injection, female fish were checked for ovulation every 2 h. Ovulation was determined to have occurred when light abdominal pressure produced free-flowing, clear yellow ova. Prior to ova collection from the first female, striped bass milt was collected from three males, pooled, extended using the method by He and Woods (2003), and stored on ice prior to use.…”

We evaluated white bass ovum fatty acid composition as well as embryonic and larval survival after varying n-3 and n-6 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) concentrations in maternal diets. Diets containing graded levels (0, 33, 66, or 100%) of squid to menhaden oils were fed daily to apparent satiation to female white bass for 8 weeks prior to spawning. Embryonic survival was negatively related to maternal squid oil intake (P=0.015, R2=0.970). Squid oil-fed broodstock produced ova with decreased 20:5n-3 and increased C18 polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations, largely reflecting the fatty acid profile of squid oil. Within ovum phospholipid, accumulation of 18:2n-6 may have altered biological function resulting in the lower embryonic survival among ova produced from the squid oil-fed broodstock. Our data suggest the importance of feeding white bass broodstock diets high in total n-3 LC-PUFA (at least 4.0% dry matter), and 20:5n-3-rich lipid sources such as menhaden oil can be effectively utilized by female white bass to produce quality ova.

“…With cautionary techniques used, there is still loss involved, most of which can be attributed to extended air exposure. Stallion sperm can use both aerobic and anaerobic pathways [46] and with fluxing temperature and air exposure, the concept of motility conservation minus air exposure results in the decline of energy stores via glycolysis and glycogen recruitment.…”

“…Their qualitative and quantitative composition has been characterized in rainbow trout (Oncorchynhus mykiss Walbaum) and carp (Cyprinus carpio L) in details (Lahnsteiner 2009). Experimental works demonstrate that specific amino acids have an effect on the functionality of spermatozoa: In the striped bass, Morone saxatilis (Walbaum), glycine and alanine improve the motility rate of cryopreserved spermatozoa (He and Woods 2003). In the same species, glycine increases the motility rate of refrigerated stored spermatozoa (He and Woods 2003).…”

A comparative study was conducted on the free amino acid composition of gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata, and perch, Perca fluviatilis. Also the effect of 21 free amino acids on sperm motility was investigated. Spermatozoa were incubated in species-specific motility-inhibiting saline solution containing the different amino acids for 48 h. Thereafter, the motility was activated and investigated using computer-assisted cell motility analysis. Twelve free amino acids, respectively, were detected in S. aurata and P. fluviatilis semen. Arginine, cysteine, glutamic acid, leucine, and methionine occurred in semen of both species. In S. aurata, arginine, glycine, hydroxyproline, lysine, and phenylalanine in concentrations of 1.25 and 2.50 mmol/l, methionine in a concentration of 2.5 mmol/l, and serine in a concentration of 1.25 mmol/l had a positive effect on the motility of spermatozoa. In P. fluviatilis, alanine, asparagine, cysteine, glycine, isoleucine, lysine, methionine, serine, threonine, and valine in concentrations of 2.50 mmol/l positively affected motility. From these data, it can be concluded that the amino acid composition and the effect on motility are species specific. Possible consequences for spermatozoa functionality are discussed.
