“…Mysis shrimp fed only inert diets showed lower survival and growth than values observed in the other treatments. Although slow growth was foreseen in this treatment, low survival was unexpected as previous studies have reported high survival in shrimp larvae fed inert diets only (Jones et al, 1979;Kurmaly et al, 1989;D'Abramo et al, 2006). On the other hand, co-feeding Artemia with the inert diet significantly improved survival compared to use of Artemia alone and even at up to 75% Artemia replacement, while the 25 and 50% replacement levels supported growth equivalent to the use of Artemia alone.…”

“…Complete replacement of live foods with formulated diets through all the larval stages has also been demonstrated (Jones et al, 1979;Kurmaly et al, 1989;Le Vay et al, 1993) but while survival can be equivalent to that of larvae reared on live foods, growth and development may be slower (Le Vay et al, 1993;D'Abramo et al, 2006). Penaeid shrimp larvae show good acceptance of inert diets in co-feeding regimes and different methods have been applied to evaluate the physical, chemical and nutritional performance of new microdiets.…”

“…Constant improvements through nutritional research have narrowed the dependency on live feeds and some studies have reported on the successful total replacement of microalgae and/or Artemia at different larval stages (Kanazawa, 1990;Cuzon and Aquacop, 1998;D'Abramo et al, 2006). Complete replacement of live foods with formulated diets through all the larval stages has also been demonstrated (Jones et al, 1979;Kurmaly et al, 1989;Le Vay et al, 1993) but while survival can be equivalent to that of larvae reared on live foods, growth and development may be slower (Le Vay et al, 1993;D'Abramo et al, 2006).…”

The nutritional contribution from co-fed Artemia nauplii and inert diets to growth in mysis and early postlarval shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei was assessed by analyzing the carbon stable isotope ratios (δ 13 C) in diets and shrimp tissue. Artemia nauplii and inert diets showed significantly different δ 13 C values but similar carbon contents and were supplied as single diets and also in three co-feeding regimes in which 25, 50 and 75% of the Artemia was replaced by inert diet on a dry weight basis, so that all feeding regimes provided similar amounts of dietary carbon. Shrimp δ 13 C values were significantly influenced by the different feeding regimes and reached isotopic equilibrium with their respective diets as soon as 5 days. Survival was significantly higher in co-fed animals than in those fed either Artemia or inert diet alone. There was no significant difference in growth between shrimp fed on Artemia only and those co-fed Artemia with inert diet, although the variability was high. Growth and survival were very low in shrimp fed only inert diet. Results from an isotope mixing model suggest that observed nutrient contributions from Artemia nauplii were significantly higher than expected contributions indicated by proportions established in the co-feeding regimes. Nutrient contributions to growth in the dietary regime providing equal carbon amounts of each diet type ranged from 77 to 86% for Artemia and from 13 to 24% for inert diet. Shrimp fed the 25% Artemia replacement regime exhibited a significantly higher retention of dietary carbon from the inert diet than those fed inert diet alone. This may have resulted from greater ingestion and/or assimilation of the inert diet in the presence of Artemia, combined with the higher growth rate in the co-feeding treatment. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of up to 50% replacement of Artemia with inert diet for L. vannamei mysis and early postlarval stages, indicating also that the inert diet may provide specific nutrients that promote survival, while digestibility may limit its contribution to tissue growth. The 3 influence of maternal and dietary sources on δ 13 C values in earlier larval stages was also described.

“…Ultimate survival in all groups surpassed the rate appropriate for the species (70%, FAO, 2003) and that appropriate for experimental hatcheries (Aranguren et al, 2006;D'Abramo et al, 2006). Similarly, no difference was observed between groups in larval quality, including development, feeding, and signs of diseases (FAO, 2003).…”

Sexual reproduction in freshwater fairy shrimp, Dendrocephalus brasiliensis (Pesta, 1921) inferred by Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism markers

Fluctuations in world harvests of Artemia sp cysts have increased prices sharply in the past years. Several organisms have been tested as alternative sources for a total or partial replacement of Artemia sp, among which the microcrustacean (Anostraca) Dendrocephalus brasiliensis stands out. The objective of this study was to investigate the reproductive strategy of D. brasiliensis by means of AFLP markers. The distinction between sexual and parthenogenetic reproduction was conducted using 7 EcoRI and MseI primer combinations in a full-sib family composed of 13 progenies. Forty polymorphic markers were obtained, of these, 35% were from paternal origin and 65% were maternally inherited. Results showed mendelian segregation in all markers through the chi-square at P≤0.05. Sex changes were observed after 72 hours of grouping individuals of the same sex in a container, suggesting a possible sex density-dependent behavior. Paternal inheritance revealed that this species adopts sexual reproduction under experimental conditions.
