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.

White sucker, Catostomus commersoni, has been introduced in many brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, lakes of the Laurentian Shield, Quebec, Canada. The goal of this study was to assess the impact of these introductions on the parasite fauna of brook trout. Three lakes containing brook trout only and three lakes containing both brook trout and white sucker were studied. The objectives were (i) to determine if white sucker parasites were able to colonise the relatively oligotrophic lakes of the Laurentian Shield, (ii) to establish if parasites were exchanged between sucker and trout, and (iii) to study the effect of trout feeding habits on their parasite fauna, since this fish shifts its diet from zoobenthos to Zooplankton when living with white sucker. Eight of the 12 parasite species found on white sucker probably colonised the lakes with their host. Among the 11 parasite species identified from trout, it is unlikely that any were introduced by white sucker. Trout living with white sucker have more parasites transmitted by Zooplankton (Diphyllobothrium ditremum and Eubothrium salvelini) and fewer parasites transmitted by zoobenthos (Crepidostomum farionis and Sterliadochona ephemeridarum) than trout living in allopatry. Local factors such as lake morphometrics also seemed to play an important role in the composition of the trout parasite fauna.

Inorganic monomeric aluminum concentrations were found to be the primary determinant of survival of brook trout feeding fry exposed for 21 d to various combinations of total aluminum and pH, plus several concentrations of fluoride or DOC, or several temperatures. Total aluminum concentrations in the 4 × 4 × 4 experimental matrices ranged from 3–1276 ppb, pH from 4.4–6.7, fluoride from <10–328 ppb, DOC from <1–9.2 ppm, and temperatures from 5.4–12.0 °C. Stepwise logistic regression was used to determine the significance of the effect of each water quality variable on survival. Inorganic monomeric aluminum accounted for 78–98% of the variation in survival. Except in the fluoride bioassay where pH was not significant, pH was the second-most important variable, accounting for up to 16% of the variation in survival. Fluoride or temperature accounted for 1–2% of the variation in survival, while DOC accounted for 6% of the variation in survival.

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
