Juvenis de carpa capim alimentados com capim teosinto e suplementados com diferentes taxas de arraçoamento Grass carp juveniles fed with teosinte grass and supplied with different feeding rates

Avaliou-se o desenvolvimento de juvenis de carpa capim (Ctenopharyngodon idella) alimentados com capim teosinto (Euchlaena mexicana) e suplementados com ração. Realizaram-se dois experimentos, de 45 dias, utilizando 240 juvenis em cada um (peso médio: 10,9&plusmn;0,3g e 20,2&plusmn;0,2g). No experimento 1, os peixes foram alimentados com capim teosinto mais ração, em 4 níveis de suplementação: 1, 2, 3 e 4% do PV, denominados S1, S2, S3 e S4. No experimento 2, testou-se: C=Somente Capim Teosinto; SD=Capim Teosinto+ Suplementação diária (3%PV); SA=Capim Teosinto + Suplementação a cada dois dias (3%PV); R=Somente ração (3% PV). No experimento 1, observou-se aumento linear positivo do peso em relação à suplementação com ração. A melhor taxa de crescimento específico foi obtida com o tratamento S4. O rendimento de filé foi maior nos tratamentos S3 e S4. No experimento 2, para a variável peso, o tratamento SD diferiu significativamente dos demais. Os tratamentos SD, SA e R não diferiram estatisticamente em relação ao rendimento de filé, porém, houve diferença entre o tratamento SD e o C. Conclui-se que a associação do capim teosinto com a ração (3%PV) proporciona bom crescimento para juvenis de carpa capim.<br>This study was aimed at evaluating the growth of grass carp juveniles (Ctenopharyngodon idella) fed with teosinte grass (Euchlaena mexicana) and supplied with different feeding rates. Two experiments were done (45 days each), using 240 juveniles (weight=10.33 &plusmn; 0.33 and 20.15 &plusmn; 0.23g). In the first, four feeding rates (1, 2, 3 and 4% of body weight (BW), called S1, S2, S3 and S4 respectively) were tested. In the second, the treatments were: C = Only teosinte grass; SD = Teosinte grass + ration daily (3%BW); SA = Teosinte grass + ration each 2 days (3%BW); R = Only ration (3%BW). In the experiment 1, it was observed a weight increasing following the ration supply. The higher specific growth rate was obtained in S4. No differences among treatments was verify for carcass yield, however, the fillet yield was higher in S3 and S4. In the experiment 2, weight was higher in SD. The carcass yield (RC) did not present significant difference among the treatments in the experiment 2. Fillet yield was lower in fish fed only with teosinte grass (C). We concluded that the grass carp juveniles growing is positively affected by association of teosinte grass and ration supply, being necessary a minimum feeding rate (3%BW) daily for achieving good growth

Peixes recifais da costa da Paraíba, Brasil Reef fishes from Paraíba, Brazil

<abstract language="eng">The coral reef is an ecossystem which evokes great interest, for its beaury, species diversity and fisheries potential. The coast of Paraíba State, northeast Brazil, possesses several natural reefs and shipwrecks which are inhabited by a rich fish fauna. In order to survey the reef fish fauna of Paraíba State, a total of 118 dives, utilizing SCUBA diving techniques, were carriedoutin 27samplingpoints (depths: 0,5-66m), from February/1995 to May/1996. Specimens were collected whenever underwater identification was precluded. A total of 157 known species belonging to 59 families were found. Four unidentified species, one dasyatid, one haemulid, one scarid, and one labrid were recorded. Haemulidae was the most representative family in number of individuais, whereas Carangidae was the most speciose family. This paper is part of a broader study of the northeast Brazilian reef fishes

Relação entre características morfológicas e produtivas de clones de palma-forrageira Relationship between morphological characteristics and productivity of cactus forage clones

Objetivou-se avaliar a relação entre as características morfológicas e produtivas de clones de palma-forrageira para identificação daqueles que contribuem diretamente na produção. Foram avaliados 50 clones de palma-forrageira estabelecidos no palmal há cinco anos e submetidos ao primeiro corte dois anos antes da avaliação. Foram avaliadas as características da planta e do cladódio, e os dados foram analisados pela estatística descritiva, correlação de Pearson e pela análise de trilha das variáveis-independentes explicativas sobre a produção de matéria seca em t/ha/2anos (variável-dependente principal). A produção variou entre clones e foi maior nos clones 8, 782 e 418, cujas produções de matéria seca de 40,8; 18,1 e 12,1 t MS/ha/2anos, respectivamente. Houve baixa correlação entre quase todas as variáveis explicativas e a produção considerada variável principal, por isso, foi necessária a associação de características. As características altura associada à largura da planta explicaram melhor o potencial de produção de matéria seca em t/ha/2anos por apresentarem alta correlação com a produção (r = 0,71) e maior efeito direto (0,69). A seleção indireta e não-destrutiva para a produção deve ser baseada em plantas com maior altura e largura.<br>This research evaluated the relationship among the morphological and productive characteristics of clones of cactus forage for identification of those that directly contribute to the production. It was evaluated 50 clones of cactus forage planted five years ago and submitted to the first cut two years before the evaluation. Characteristics of the plant and of the cladode were evaluated and data were analyzed by descriptive characteristics, Pearson correlation and by path analysis of the explanatory independent variables on the dry matter production in t/ha/2 years (main dependent variable). Production varied among clones and it was the highest in clones 8, 782 e 418 whose dry matter production was of 40.8; 18.1 and 12.1 tMS/ha/2 years, respectively. There was a low correlation among almost all the explanatory variables and the production considered main variable, so, association of characteristics was needed. Characteristic height associated with plant width explained better the potential of dry matter production in t/ha/2 years because they presented a high correlation with production (r = 0.71) and the highest direct effect (0.69). Indirect and non destructive selection for production have to be based on higher and larger plants
