Farming of spiny lobsters in sea cages in India - M. Vijayakumaran; R. Venkatesan; T. Senthil Murugan; T.S. Kumar; Dilip Kumar Jha; M.C. Remany; J. Mary Leema Thilakam; S. Syed Jahan; G. Dharani; S. Kathiroli; K. Selvan (New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 2009)
Pueruli and post‐pueruli, early juveniles and sub‐adults of the spiny lobster, Panulirus homarus and juveniles of P. ornatus were grown in different floating sea cages along the southeast coast of India from May 2003 to May 2007. The first type of cage had a galvanised iron pipe frame (2.0 m × 2.0 m × 1.2 m) with steel woven mesh and four inner detachable compartments (0.75 m × 0.75 m × 1.10 m). Fibre‐reinforced plastic was used subsequently to fabricate cages (1 m × 1 m × 1 m). Pueruli and post‐pueruli of P. homarus (1.58 ± 0.62 g SD), stocked at 60 individuals/m 2 , grew to an average weight of 123.10 ± 26.22 g in 266 days with a survival rate of 70%. Sub‐adults of P. homarus with an average weight (± SD) of 123.61 ± 29.26 g reached 341.25 ± 46.22 g in 225 days at a stocking density of 21 individuals/m 2 with a survival of 73 ± 6%. The post‐pueruli grew by 0.46 ± 0.10 g per day with a specific growth rate (SGR) of 1.64, whereas sub‐adults had a growth rate of 0.97 ± 0.20 g per day with a SGR of 0.43. At a higher stocking density of 80 individuals/m 2 , juveniles (51.83 ± 10.32 g and 58.20 ± 28.22 g) of P. homarus recorded growth rates of 0.86 ± 0.25 (SGR 0.82) and 0.97 ± 0.34 g (SGR 0.96) per day. This study indicates that post‐pueruli of P. homarus can be grown to over 200 g in 12 months and up to 350 g in 16 to 17 months in sea cages. Juveniles (average weight 76.35 ± 34.50 g) of P. ornatus , reared with P. homarus at a stocking density of 80 individuals/m 2 , recorded a weight gain of 139 g in 155 days at arate of 0.89 ± 0.32 g per day with an SGR of 0.67. Marine live clam, Donax spp., was the main feed supplemented with the gastropod, Xancus pyrum , the green mussel, Perna viridis , marine crab (Charibdis sp.), squid (Loligo sp.), and fish such as clupeids and Leognathus sp. Pueruli and post‐pueruli settled in large numbers (up to 35 individuals/month in one cage) both inside and outside the cages.

Role of predictors in downscaling surface temperature to river basin in India for IPCC SRES scenarios using support vector machine - Aavudai Anandhi; V. V. Srinivas; D. Nagesh Kumar; Ravi S. Nanjundiah (International Journal of Climatology, 2009)
In this paper, downscaling models are developed using a support vector machine (SVM) for obtaining projections of monthly mean maximum and minimum temperatures ( T max and T min ) to river‐basin scale. The effectiveness of the model is demonstrated through application to downscale the predictands for the catchment of the Malaprabha reservoir in India, which is considered to be a climatically sensitive region. The probable predictor variables are extracted from (1) the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) reanalysis dataset for the period 1978–2000, and (2) the simulations from the third‐generation Canadian Coupled Global Climate Model (CGCM3) for emission scenarios A1B, A2, B1 and COMMIT for the period 1978–2100. The predictor variables are classified into three groups, namely A, B and C. Large‐scale atmospheric variables such as air temperature, zonal and meridional wind velocities at 925 mb which are often used for downscaling temperature are considered as predictors in Group A. Surface flux variables such as latent heat (LH), sensible heat, shortwave radiation and longwave radiation fluxes, which control temperature of the Earth's surface are tried as plausible predictors in Group B. Group C comprises of all the predictor variables in both the Groups A and B. The scatter plots and cross‐correlations are used for verifying the reliability of the simulation of the predictor variables by the CGCM3 and to study the predictor‐predictand relationships. The impact of trend in predictor variables on downscaled temperature was studied. The predictor, air temperature at 925 mb showed an increasing trend, while the rest of the predictors showed no trend. The performance of the SVM models that are developed, one for each combination of predictor group, predictand, calibration period and location‐based stratification (land, land and ocean) of climate variables, was evaluated. In general, the models which use predictor variables pertaining to land surface improved the performance of SVM models for downscaling T max and T min . Copyright © 2008 Royal Meteorological Society

Analysis of a 27‐year rainfall data (1977–2003) in the Sultanate of Oman - Andy Y. Kwarteng; Atsu S. Dorvlo; Ganiga T. Vijaya Kumar (International Journal of Climatology, 2009)
Analysis of variation of rainfall in space, time and amounts, and its attendant effect on the ecosystem is vital in arid and semi‐arid environments where the resource is scare, highly variable and unpredictable. In this study, we analyse the characteristics of rainfall in the Sultanate of Oman using data recorded between 1977 and 2003. The data is divided into six geomorphic compartments to represent the various topographic regions in Oman. The average yearly rainfall varies from a low of 76.9 mm in the interior region to a high of 181.9 mm in the Dhofar Mountains, with an average of 117.4 mm for the whole country. Mann–Kendall statistics show a negative but insignificant rainfall trends for the datasets. In northern Oman, the main rainfall season occurs between December and April and that accounts for 57.8–82.9% of the annual rainfall. February and March record the highest rainfall accounting for 35.3 to 42% of the yearly rainfall. The Dhofar Mountains and surrounding areas in southern Oman are dominated by the khareef season in July–August, which produces 44.3 to 67.5% of the rainfall in that area. The number of days of light rainfall ( 100 mm rainfall per day) approximately every 50 years. Copyright © 2008 Royal Meteorological Society

Captive breeding and larval development of the scyllarine lobster Petrarctus rugosus - T.S. Kumar; M. Vijayakumaran; T. Senthil Murugan; Dilip Kumar Jha; G. Sreeraj; S. Muthukumar (New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 2009)
The scyllarinid lobster, Petrarctus rugosus was reared to the postlarval nisto in 51 days at 24.9–26.5°C between November 2003 and April 2004 in Chennai, India. The lobster had eight phyllosomal instars. The eighth instars died while moulting to nisto. Instar VI was attained in 34 days with an average intermoult period of 5.4 days, whereas the last two moults took 17 days to complete. The captive breeders mated and bred several times between November and April with peak spawning in February. Repetitive breeding was observed with the brooding period varying from 11 to 17 days. Mean fecundity was 17 004 eggs ± 11 486 (SD). Hatching percentage was between 0.00 and 87.44.

Development and characterization of cell lines derived from rohu, Labeo rohita (Hamilton), and catla, Catla catla (Hamilton) - V P Ishaq Ahmed; V Chandra; R Sudhakaran; S Rajesh Kumar; M Sarathi; V Sarath Babu; B Ramesh; A S Sahul Hameed (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2009)
Two new cell lines, designated RE and CB, were derived from the eye of rohu, Labeo rohita , and the brain of catla, Catla catla , respectively. The cell lines were maintained in Leibovitz’s L‐15 supplemented with 20% foetal bovine serum. The RE cell line was sub‐cultured for more than 70 passages and the CB cell line for more than 35 passages. The RE cells are rounded and consist predominantly of epithelial cells. The CB cell line consists of predominantly fibroblastic‐like cells. Both cell lines are able to grow at temperatures between 25 and 32 °C with an optimum of 28 °C. The growth rate of the cells increased as the foetal bovine serum concentration increased from 2% to 20% at 28 °C, with optimum growth at concentrations of 15% or 20% foetal bovine serum. The cells were successfully cryopreserved and revived at different passage levels. The cell lines were not susceptible to four marine fish viruses. Extracellular products from Aeromonas sp . were toxic to the cell lines. When the cells were transfected with plasmid eukaryotic green fluorescent protein (pEGFP [Clontech, Carlsbad, CA, USA]) vector DNA, a significant fluorescent signal was observed suggesting that these cell lines could be a useful tool for transgenic and genetic manipulation studies. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of mitochondrial 12S rRNA from rohu and catla confirmed that the cell lines originated from these fish species. The cell lines were further characterized by immunocytochemistry using confocal laser scanning microscopy.

A 60‐day feeding trial was conducted to study the immuno‐protective effect of microbial levan on Labeo rohita juveniles challenged with Aeromonas hydrophila. Six purified diets were prepared with different levels of microbial levan: control (no levan), T1 (Basal + 0.25%), T2 (Basal + 0.50%), T3 (Basal + 0.75%), T4 (Basal + 1%) and T5 (Basal + 1.25%), fed to six groups of fish in triplicate. Among the treatment groups the haemoglobin content and total leucocyte count were increased with a dietary supplementation of levan at 1% or more. An increasing trend for total erythrocyte count was observed with increasing level of dietary levan. Lower levan‐supplemented groups showed a higher albumin/globulin ratio. As the levan supplementation was increased, there was a gradual increase in serum lysozyme activity and respiratory burst activity [nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) assay] reduction values. The highest lysozyme activity and NBT were observed in the T5 group although this was similar to the T4 group ( P > 0.05). No significant histo‐architectural changes were associated with dietary levan levels. After challenge with A. hydrophila , moderately degenerated hepatocytes, oedema and leucocytic infiltration in parenchymatous tissues, and extensive haemorrhage and haemosiderosis in the kidney were observed in the control group. However, the T5 group supplemented with 1.25% levan showed infiltrating leucocytes in the liver while the kidney showed only moderate degeneration of renal tubules. The relative survival per cent of juveniles after challenge with A. hydrophila was the highest in the T5 group followed by T4. This suggests that microbial levan at 1.25% can be used as dietary immunostimulant for L. rohita juveniles.
