Abstract
There were observed the histomorphological alterations such as chloride cell hyperplasia, branchial lamellar epithelial separation, the increased cellular turnover of chloride cells, glomerular shrinkage and blood congestion in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) during the seawater adaptation. The ultrastructure by scanning electron microscope (SEM) indicated that the gill secondary lamella of rainbow trout exposed to seawater, were characterized by rough convoluted surfaces during the adaptation. There were observed a large number of mitochondria with the elongate and well-developed cristae in chloride cells exposed to seawater by transmission electron microscope (TEM). The presence of two mitochondria- rich cell types is discussed with regard to their possible role in the hypoosmoregulatory changes which occur during seawater-adaptation. Glomerulus shrinkage and blood congestion were occurred higher in nephrons of seawater-adapted fish than those living in freshwater. Our findings demonstrated that rainbow trout tolerated moderately saline environment and the increased body weight living in seawater was relatively higher than that living in freshwater in spite of histopathological changes.
