Food, size, and growth of 17 allopatric and 10 sympatric lake populations of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) and cutthroat trout (S. clarki) were compared as well as their aggressive behavior during feeding in experimental tanks. In allopatry, rainbow trout fed extensively on benthic, midwater, and surface prey. Allopatric cutthroat utilized mostly midwater prey but in contrast with rainbow trout also fish (Cottus, Gasterosteus) when available. In sympatry, rainbow trout exploited mainly limnetic surface and midwater prey whereas cutthroat trout utilized more littoral prey and were much more piscivorous in feeding. Allopatric rainbow attained a greater average and maximum size (length, weight) than allopatric cutthroat whereas in sympatric populations cutthroat were clearly larger than rainbow. Growth (size at specific ages) usually was higher for rainbow compared with cutthroat trout in allopatric populations but just the reverse in sympatric populations. When held as matched pairs in aquaria, rainbow consistently were more aggressive than cutthroat trout and displayed different patterns of threat as well as means of prey capture. Differences in feeding and growth in sympatry may result from interactive segregation, the more pronounced aggressiveness of rainbow promoting higher growth in cutthroat trout.Key words: rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, feeding, growth, habitat, aggressive behavior, feeding behavior, interactive segregation

The purpose of this study was (i) to determine whether pure fumonisin B1 could be incorporated into, recovered, and detected by high-pressure liquid chromatographic analysis from the semipurified Oregon test diet (OTD) used in rainbow trout feeding studies, and (ii) to determine if the incorporated fumonisin B1 was biologically available using the change in free sphingoid bases in liver, kidney, and serum as a mechanism-based biomarker. The results indicate that fumonisin is not easily quantified in the OTD. Recoveries ranged from 12 to 81% of the calculated concentrations based on the fumonisin B1 added to the OTD. However, the fumonisin B1 in the OTD was readily absorbed and biologically active as evidenced by marked increases in free sphinganine in liver, kidney, and serum. The magnitude of the increase in free sphinganine at 100 ppm in the OTD was comparable to that known to be associated with liver toxicity in rats, pigs, and ponies.

In this study, spontaneous swim bladder mycosis was documented in a farmed fingerling rainbow trout from a raceway culture system. At necropsy, the gross lesions included a thickened swim bladder wall, and the posterior portion of the swim bladder was enlarged due to massive hyperplasia of muscle. A microscopic wet mount examination of the swim bladder contents revealed abundant septate hyphae, and histopathological examination showed periodic acid-Schiff-positive mycelia in the lumen and wall of the swim bladder. Histopathological examination of the thickened posterior swim bladder revealed muscle hyperplasia with expansion by inflammatory cells. The causative agent was identified as Phoma herbarum through morphological analysis and DNA sequencing. The disease was reproduced in rainbow trout fingerlings using intraperitoneal injection of a spore suspension. Necropsy in dead and moribund fish revealed extensive congestion and haemorrhages in the serosa of visceral organs and in liver and abdominal serosanguinous fluid. Histopathological examination showed severe hepatic congestion, sinusoidal dilatation, Kupffer cell reactivity, leukostasis and degenerative changes. Fungi were disseminated to the liver, pyloric caeca, kidney, spleen and heart. Although infections caused by Phoma spp. have been repeatedly reported in fish, species identification has been hampered by extensive taxonomic changes. The results of this study confirmed the pathogenicity of P. herbarum in salmonids by using a reliably identified strain during experimental fish infection and provides new knowledge regarding the course of infection.
