Abstract

Effects of different salinity levels on spawning performance, embryonic development and early viability of a euryhaline medaka species, Oryzias dancena, were examined. O. dancena were able to spawn eggs in a wide range of salinity from 0 to 70$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$, however, the spawning frequency was lowered in complete freshwater (0$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$) and in highly salted water (70$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$). Fertilization success was negatively affected when the environmental salinity was higher than the salt concentration found in normal seawater. Embryonic viability and hatching success were also inversely related with the salinity levels. Typical abnormality was observed in developing embryos incubated at high salinities (30, 45 and 60$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$). In addition, the time to hatch was significantly delayed with increasing salinities: peak hatching occurred at 12~14 days post fertilization (dpf) in freshwater and at least at 17 to 18 dpf in 60$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$. Mean survival rates of the hatched larvae up to 7 days post hatching (dph) were at least 97% in salinity levels ranging from 0 to 30$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$. However, larvae reared in 45 and 60$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$ experienced significant mortality, especially in the early phase, resulting in only 75% and 64% survival rates up to 7 dph, respectively.

광염성 송사리 Oryzias dancena를 대상으로 서로 다른 염분도 조건이 산란, 발생 및 초기 생존 형질에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 송사리는 본 연구에서 설정한 모든 염분도 조건 (0~70$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$)에서 산란이 가능하였으나 암컷의 산란 참여 빈도 및 산란 주기는 염분도 별로 차이가 관찰되어 담수 (0$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$) 및 70$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$에서 다른 염분도 그룹 (10~50$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$)에 비해 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 조사한 염분도 조건 중 0~30$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$ 구간에서만 수정률의 저하가 없었으며 염분도가 그 이상 높아질 경우 수정률의 유의적인 감소가 관찰되었다. O. dancena 수정란은 본 연구의 0, 15, 30, 45 및 60$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$ 부화조건에서 모두 발생이 가능하였으나 염분도가 상승 할수록 배(embryo)의 생존율과 부화율이 저하되는 경향을 나타내었고, 특히 고염분의 조건에서는 기형 유발과 부화의 지연이 관찰되었다. 부화 자어 대상으로 다양한 염분도 조건에서 부화 후 7 일째까지의 초기 생존율을 관찰한 결과, 45$^{\circ}/_{\circ\circ}$ 이상의 염분도에서 초기 발달 과정 중 유의적인 폐사가 관찰되었으나 이후 안정화되는 경향을 나타내었다.
