显著车轮虫无性繁殖生物学研究
A BIOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION OF ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION OF TRICHODINA NOBILLIS CHEN
-
摘要: 显著车轮虫无性繁殖过程中,其新齿环在分裂前期发生于旧齿环和辐线环之间;由细线状圆环分节以覆瓦式排列,其数目常为旧环的一倍,少数个体有增多。随着虫体发育,新环依次长出齿钩、锥体、齿棘。旧环则依齿钩、齿棘、锥体、齿钩柄的顺序消失;口沟、伸缩泡均在分裂前期分裂,各自形成两个新的口沟、伸缩泡;新辐线在子体发育初或中期才发生于新齿环外缘,总数为旧辐线的一倍。该虫无性繁殖以24小时为一周期。分裂前期需0.5—1小时;分裂期需1—3分钟。幼虫生长发育期需1.5—3小时。成虫生长成熟期需20—22小时。无论幼虫、童虫和成虫,均能感染鱼苗并影响其生长发育。Abstract: During the process of asexual reproduction of T. nobillis, all organelles except the striae were divided or developed before cell division. The micronueleus undertook mitosis to form two micronuclei. The macronucleus also underwent a series of morphologicall changes and finally divided. The new denticulate ring was developed as a delicate thread-like ring located between the old ring and the striate ring, then it was divided into sections usually twice as that of the old denticles in number and appeared to be somewhat tiling in arrangement. Half of the old ring retained in each daughter cell after cell division and then disppeared orderly. The adoral spiral and the contractile vacuole were also divided into two parts. Each new stria mingled with the old one so that the number of new striae are usually twice as many as the old ones. The time order of asexual reproduction of T. nobillis has also been investigated. Under the optimum temperature (22—29℃), the cycle of asexual reproduction of T. nobillis lasted 24 hours. Predivisional stage Iasted 0.5—1 hour and divisional stage, 1—3 minutes. Growth of young lasted 1.5—3 hours, of adult, 20—22 hours.
