Popis: | Muscle protein decreases only during prolonged starvation of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua, Gadidae), but in the absence of protein renewal, muscle metabolic capacities may decrease before marked loss of muscle protein. This study aimed at elucidating the threshold at which decreases in growth and condition reduce muscle metabolic capacities, as well as identifying the indicators that best explain changes in metabolic capacities. To generate a wide spectrum of individual growth rates, condition factors and proximate compositions, cod showing different initial condition were fed or starved for different periods of time. The relationships between muscle proteins and metabolic enzyme activities (LDH and CCO) on one hand, and growth rate, condition factor, hepato- and gonadosomatic index and muscle and liver water and energy contents, on the other hand, were examined through linear regression models. Multiple linear regressions explained a large proportion of the observed variability in proteins and enzyme activ... |
