Résumé : International audience
Since the recent publication of data showing favorable outcomes for patients with HIV-1 and ESRD, kidney transplantation has become a therapeutic option in this population. However, reports have documented unexplained reduced allograft survival in these patients. We hypothesized that the unrecognized infection of the transplanted kidney by HIV-1 can compromise long-term allograft function. Using electron microscopy and molecular biology, we examined protocol renal transplant biopsies from 19 recipients with HIV-1 who did not have detectable levels of plasma HIV-1 RNA at transplantation. We found that HIV-1 infected the kidney allograft in 68% of these patients. Notably, HIV-1 infection was detected in either podocytes predominately (38% of recipients) or tubular cells only (62% of recipients). Podocyte infection associated with podocyte apoptosis and loss of differentiation markers as well as a faster decline in allograft function compared with tubular cell infection. In allografts with tubular cell infection, epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubules frequently contained abnormal mitochondria, and both patients who developed features of subclinical acute cellular rejection had allografts with tubular cell infection. Finally, we provide a novel noninvasive test for determining HIV-1 infection of the kidney allograft by measuring HIV-1 DNA and RNA levels in patients' urine. In conclusion, HIV-1 can infect kidney allografts after transplantation despite undetectable viremia, and this infection might influence graft outcome.

Résumé : Dissolved and particulate Hg fluxes in the Lot-Garonne-Gironde fluvial-estuarine system were obtained from observation of daily discharge and suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentrations. In addition to the measurements of the total dissolved (< 0.45 gm) and particulate Hg (> 0.45 gm), called HgTD and HgTp respectively, the dissolved inorganic Hg species (HgRD) were determined monthly. Geochemical background values for HgTp in sediments and SPM were similar to crustal values and to typical concentrations in SPM of non-contaminated river systems, respectively. The Riou Mort watershed already known as the origin of important historical polymetallic (e.g., Cd, Zn) pollution was identified as an important Hg point source. In the downstream Lot River, Hg concentrations were clearly higher than those in other moderately contaminated systems. The mean relative contribution of HgRD to HgTD in the Lot River and in the Garonne River was close to 25% and 50%, respectively, and showed no correlation with water discharge or SPM concentration. Depending on the origin and nature of SPM, HgTp concentrations were correlated or not with particulate organic C (POC). Maximum HgTp concentrations were measured in samples containing low POC concentrations and were attributed to sediment resuspension. In contrast, high POC concentrations (6-17%) during algal blooms were associated with low/moderate HgTp concentrations (< 0.5 mg kg(-1)) at different sites, suggesting that Hg concentrations in fluvial phytoplankton may be limited by bioavailability of dissolved Hg and/or physiologically controlled Hg accumulation. Mercury was mostly (up to 98%) transported in the particulate phase with estimated annual Hg fluxes at the outlet of the Lot River system ranging from 35 to 530 kg a(-1) for the past decade. The minimum anthropogenic component (58-84% of total Hg fluxes) could not be explained by present Riou Mort point source contributions, suggesting important Hg release from contaminated sediment as a major source and from downstream point sources (e.g., coal-fired power plants and/or metal processing industries). HgTp concentrations and fluxes were strongly related to hydrologic variations and were clearly increased by riverbed dredging during lock construction. Therefore, the estimated Hg stocks in the Lot River sediment (5-13 tons) represent an important potential Hg source for the downstream fluvial-estuarine system.

Résumé : A study was conducted using a bioenergetics approach to generate information on energy requirement and feed utilization of Litopenaeus stylirostris. Animals (initial mean weight 21 +/- 1 g were fed ad libitum six experimental diets, ranging from 25 to 58% crude protein (CP), for 50 days. Weight gain increased from 21 to 30 g with increasing dietary protein level. Survival rates averaged 80%. Basal metabolism (HeE) and heat increment of feeding (HiE) were monitored using respirometry. HeE was on average I U shrimp(-1) day(-1) or 47 U kg live weight(-1) day (22 kJ/kg(0.8). d(-1)), slightly more than what is observed in fish. HiE averaged 0.2 W/sbrimp(-1) day(-1) or 10 W kg live weight(-1) day(-1) (4 kJ/kg(0.8) d(-1)). It represented 3 1 % and 12% digestible energy intake (DET) for shrimp fed on 58% CP and 25% CP diet respectively. Non-fecal (UE + ZE) energy calculated on the basis of N-ammonia excretion averaged 0.2 jig N-ammonia/g dry wt./ mn or 25 J live shrimp(-1) day(-1) in fasting stage and increased to 40 J in post-prandial stage. Ammonia production increased with increasing dietary crude protein (CP). The O:N ratio indicated that protein was increasingly used as an energy substrate as CP increased. The information was used to construct an energy budget for shrimp fed a protypical 40% CP diet. Gross energy intake (IE) was estimated at 6.5 W live shrimp(-1) day(-1); digestible energy intake (DEI) at 5, urinary and branchial excretion (UE +ZE) at 1.2, total heat production (HE) at 3.2; recovered energy (RE) at 0.6 (or 11% DEI). L. stylirostris adults issued from domesticated strain appeared to be more efficiently utilizing (i.e. converting into carcass energy) protein than carbohydrates. This preliminary energy budget can be used to construct theoretical feed requirement and waste outputs model for L. stylirostris. (C) 2007 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Résumé : The advantages of FLOC over clear water (CW) in rearing juvenile L. vannamei and its effects on Vibrio communities were evaluated. Survival rate in FLOC and clear water were recorded and a probiotic was tested under both conditions. Daily growth rate (DGR) was higher in FLOC (p < 0.05) than in CW. Survival in each system increased significantly when a probiotic was included in the diet (p < 0.05). The Vibrionaceae community from the hepatopancreas (HP) and the culture medium did not differ between the two culture media. Nevertheless, a novel group of Vibrio strains was found to be unique to FLOC. No high level of lesions was observed in shrimp tissues from the FLOC + probiotic treatment; it suggests that the probiotic contributed to homeostasis and prevented outbreak of opportunistic pathogenic species.

Résumé : Introduction: To develop its 2005-2009 strategic plan, IFREMER made two prospective analysis studies in 2003: a thematic prospective analysis and a sectorial prospective analysis. The "aquafarming" sectorial prospective analysis, based primarily on an IFREMER idea, particularly brought to light the difference in nature of problems posed by the future evolution of shellfish farming, fish farming and other stockbreeding (pearl farming and shrimp farming). In addition, the prospective analyses made on an international scale by the FAO (2002, 2004) and the IFPRI (2003) emphasise that the development of aqua farming is the required condition for satisfying world demand of consumer aquatic products, given the foreseeable weak growth, indeed, the stagnation of caught-fish production. Considering the weak development of sea fish farming in France, a country with a long tradition of shellfish farming, it has seemed necessary to deepen the thinking about the prospective analysis devoted to sea fish farming by widening it to include all players interested in this production sector. The goal is to ensure that the strategic plan's objectives, stated in the 2005-2008 four-year contract, define a strategy fully compliant with one of IFREMER's three missions in particular: Contribute to the economic development of the maritime world.
Introduction : Pour élaborer son plan stratégique 2005-2009, l'Ifremer a réalisé en 2003 deux exercices de prospective : une prospective thématique, et une prospective sectorielle. La prospective sectorielle « aquaculture », fondée essentiellement sur une réflexion Ifremer, a mis notamment en évidence la différence de nature des problèmes posés par les évolutions futures de la conchyliculture, de la pisciculture et des autres élevages (perliculture et crevetticulture). Par ailleurs, les prospectives réalisées à l'échelle internationale par la FAO (2002, 2004) et l'IFPRI (2003) soulignent que le développement de l'aquaculture est la condition nécessaire de satisfaction de la demande mondiale d'approvisionnement en produits aquatiques de consommation, compte tenu de la prévisible faible croissance, voire stagnation, de la production des pêches de capture. Considérant le faible développement de la pisciculture marine en France, pays de longue tradition conchylicole, il est apparu nécessaire d'approfondir la réflexion prospective consacrée à la pisciculture marine, en l'élargissant à tous les acteurs concernés par ce secteur de production. Le but est de s'assurer que les objectifs du plan stratégique, déclinés dans le contrat quadriennal 2005-2008, définissent une stratégie pleinement conforme à l'une des trois missions de l'Ifremer : contribuer au développement économique du monde maritime.

Résumé : International audience
La Montagne Pelée doit lʼessentiel de sa renommée à la nuée ardente du 8 mai 1902 qui détruisit la ville de Saint-Pierre. Cependant, bien avant cette date ses éruptions avaient joué un rôle important dans la vie des premiers martiniquais. Face à cette réalité, il ne nous paraissait pas convenable dʼentreprendre lʼétude du peuplement amérindien de lʼîle sans prendre en compte la dimension volcanique. Ainsi, différents chercheurs du GDR 1122 du CNRS « Hommes et Volcans avant lʼHistoire » sont associés au projet collectif de recherche « Le Néolithique martiniquais dans son contexte antillais ». Les résultats que nous présentons ici sʼappuient sur lʼanalyse de cinq sites amérindiens situés sur les pourtours de la Montagne Pelée où les travaux de terrain ont permis de mettre au jour une intéressante interstratification des niveaux dʼoccupation précolombiens et des couches éruptives. Lʼétude que nous avons menée sʼarticule autour de deux objectifs principaux : - premièrement, nous avons cherché à distinguer et à caler chronologiquement les différents épisodes volcaniques contemporains de lʼoccupation précolombienne de lʼîle, - deuxièmement, nous tenté de percevoir lʼinfluence de ces phénomènes volcaniques sur les populations amérindiennes. Les résultats obtenus permettent de mieux concevoir la dynamique et la chronologie du peuplement précolombien de la Martinique.

Résumé : International audience
Grain deviations and high extractives content are common features of many tropical woods. We aimed at clarifying their respective impact on vibrational properties, referring to African Padauk (Pterocarpus soyauxii Taub.), a species selected for its interlocked grain, high extractives content, and uses in xylophones. Specimens were cut parallel to the trunk axis (L), and local variations in grain angle (GA), microfibril angle (MFA), specific Young's modulus (E'L/ρ, where r stands for specific gravity) and damping coefficient (tanδL), were measured. GA dependence was analyzed by a mechanical model which allowed to identify the specific Young's modulus (E'3/ρ) and shear modulus (G'/ρ) along the grain (3), as well as their corresponding damping coefficients (tanδ3, tanδG). This analysis was done for native and then for extracted wood. Interlocked grain resulted in 0-25° GA and in variations of a factor 2 in E'L/ρ and tanδL. Along the grain, Padauk wood was characterized, as compared to typical hardwoods, by a somewhat lower E'3/ρ and elastic anisotropy (E'/G'), due to a wide microfibril angle plus a small weight effect of extracts; and a very low tanδ3 and moderate damping anisotropy (tanδG/tanδ3). Extraction affected mechanical parameters in the order: tanδ3 ≈ tanδG > G'/ρ >> E'3/ρ. That is, extractives' effects were nearly isotropic on damping but clearly anisotropic on storage moduli.

Résumé : International audience
An analytical solution in the Laplace domain is derived for modeling anomalous pressure diffusion during pumping tests in aquifer displaying hierarchical fractal fracture networks. The proposed solution generalizes all of the analytical models for fractal flow published previously by combining multifractal diffusion and nested multiporosity with transient exchanges, interface skin effects, and well storage effect. Solutions are derived for fracture-delimited blocks with planar, cylindrical, and spherical shapes, as well as with any fractional dimensional shapes. Any combinations of these shapes can be defined in order to model a large range of situations. Within each permeability level, the fractal properties of the fracture network can be specified and the fractal dimension can be distinct from the shape dimension of the block.

Résumé : During the Echolag cruise (13 February-8 March 2007), the effect of 16-30 knot trade winds on abundance, community structure and dynamics of phytoplankton was investigated in the southern part of the New Caledonian coral reefs and surrounding oceanic waters. In this area, the coral reefs form two horn-like structures (hereinafter referred to as 'horn reefs'), oriented south-east, and separated by a relatively deep valley. Three repeated samplings at one week intervals of a 32 station array showed that trade winds induce surface water cooling and significant enrichment of mid- and bottom waters above the reef shelf. This enrichment appeared as the result of a general rise of the oceanic thermocline and nitracline due to the combination of trade winds and tidally-generated internal waves between the horn reefs. It was accompanied by a factor of 1.5 and 2.3 mean increase for the chlorophyll concentration and picoplankton-nanoplankton cell number, respectively. From diel variations of in vivo chlorophyll a fluorescence and hourly sampling, phytoplankton gross growth rate was estimated to be 1-1.35 divisions per day and was quasi balanced with phytoplankton mortality for a 24 h period.

Résumé : International audience
In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. A key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process vs. those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process); thus, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation needs to be differentiated from stimuli that result in increased autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. Here, we present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular autophagy assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field.

Résumé : The principal objective of the work carried out in the deep waters adjoining the island shelf around Martinique between July 1991 and april 1992 was to establish an initial inventory of potentially exploitable deep benthic resources.The cylindrical lobster pot used during fishing experiments allowed the catch of a varied carcinological marine organisms of which six species at least have economic interest : 5 species of shrimp all belonging to the sub-order of Caridea of the Pandalidae family : Plesionika edwardsi, P. (macropoda) polyacanthomerus, P.laevis, Heterocarpus ensifer and H.laevigatus, and one species of prawn of the Nephropidae family : Eunephrops cadenasi. The yields, compared to those of commercial fishermen, were medium or good for Plesionika edwardsi and P. (macropoda) polyacanthomerus between depths of 200 - 300 metres ; for Plesionika laevis and Eunephrops cadenasi in the vicinity 500 metres ; for Heterocarpus laevigatus below 700 metres. The species Heterocarpus ensifer , of which the vertical distribution is very spread out from 170 to 600 metres, seems divided into two populations which provide good yields about 300 metres and below of 450 mètres. Data on the environment and the biology of the species where also established, especially on growth and breeding. For example growth of the pandalids is relatively rapid and their life cycle rather short, between three and four or five years according to the species. At least 2 principal egg-laying seasons occur in the annual cycle. Information is given on the isopoda of the family of Cirolanidae, Bathynomus giganteus, which could eventually, under certain conditions, become of interest to the fishermen.
Les pêches expérimentales effectuées dans les eaux profondes circum-martiniquaises,attenantes au plateau insulaire, entre juillet 1991 et avril 1992, avaient pour principal objectif d'établir un premier inventaire des ressources benthiques profondes potentiellement exploitables. Le casier cylindrique , a permis la capture d'une faune carcinologique variée dont 6 espèces au-moins ont présenté un intérêt économique : 5 espèces de crevettes appartenant toutes à l'infra-ordre des Caridea, famille des Pandalidae, Plesionika edwardsi, P. (macropoda) polyacanthomerus, P.laevis, Heterocarpus ensifer et H.laevigatus, et une espèce de langoustine, famille des Nephropidae: Eunephrops cadenasi. Les rendements, comparés à ceux des professionnels, sont moyens ou bons pour Plesionika edwardsi et P.(macropoda) polyacanthomerus entre 200 et 300 mètres de profondeur; pour Plesionika laevis et Eunephrops cadenasi autour de 500 mètres ; pour Heterocarpus laevigatus en-dessous de 700 mètres. L'espèce Heterocarpus ensifer dont la distribution verticale est très étendue, de 170 à 600 mètres, semble divisée en 2 populations pour lesquelles de bons rendements peuvent être obtenus vers 300 mètres et en-dessous de 450 mètres. Des données sur l'environnement et la biologie des espèces ont également été acquises, notamment sur la croissance et la reproduction. Ainsi la croissance des pandalides est relativement rapide et leur longévité plutôt courte, entre 3 et 4 ou 5 années selon les espèces. Au moins deux pontes principales interviennent sur un cycle annuel. Des informations sont données sur l'isopode de la famille des Cirolanidae, Bathynomus giganteus, qui pourrait éventuellement, sous certaines conditions, présenter un intérêt pour les pêcheurs.

Résumé : A la demande de la représentation martiniquaise du Mouvement Des Entreprises de France (MEDEF Martinique), le CEREGMIA a évalué les effets d’une hausse des taux de TVA sur les prix et les recettes fiscales en Martinique. Ces travaux de quantification s’appuient sur deux approches méthodologiques, qui fournissent des résultats convergents et peuvent s’énoncer comme suit : L’augmentation d’un point des taux de TVA génère, toutes choses égales par ailleurs : Une augmentation de l’Indice des Prix à la Consommation (IPC) de Martinique comprise dans une fourchette comprise entre 0.95 % et 1 %, occasionnant une perte de pouvoir d’achat d’autant ; Une augmentation des recettes de TVA, dont le montant avoisine 13 millions d’€, soit une progression de 6 % de la recette.

Résumé : The light response curve methodology for microphytobenthic biofilms was studied by comparing the two most usual approaches used in pulse amplitude modulated (PAM) fluorometry. The non-sequential light curve (N-SLC) method is characterized by independent measures of the photosynthetic activity across a light gradient whereas the rapid light curve (RLC) method consists of successive measures on the same sample exposed to a stepwise increase of light intensities. Experiments were carried out on experimental microphytobenthic biofilms prepared from natural assemblages and acclimated to dark conditions. In preliminary experiments, N-SLCs were constructed from fluorescence induction curves performed at 12 different photon flux densities (PFDs). A minimum of 50 s of illumination was necessary to reach a stable light response curve; shorter illumination times resulted in underestimating the physiological parameters (alpha the light utilization coefficient in light-limited conditions and rETR(max) the maximum rate of photosynthesis efficiency) of the light response curve. For the comparison between N-SLCs and RLCs, the same time of illumination (50 s) was used for each light step of RLCs so that N-SLCs differed from RLCs only by the way the amount of light was delivered, i.e., a light dose accumulation for RLC. The experimental results showed the difference between the two photobiological response curves. In the lower range of PFDs, RLCs exhibited a larger value of alpha; in this light-limited part of the response curve the incremental increase of PFDs limited the development of NPQ and resulted in a better optimization of electron transport rate for RLC. In the higher range of PFDs, the trend was reversed and the RLC showed a lower value of rETR(max) than the N-SLC did; this is attributed to the light dose accumulation which likely led to a more efficient dispersion of energy, as illustrated by a higher non-photochemical quenching (NPQ). In conclusion, these results confirm that parameters derived from both methods differ in their value and do not bear the same physiological information.

Résumé : Investigations carried out in both Corsica lagoons Diana and Urbino during the period from January to August 1985, permitted to define the main characteristics of microplankton cycle. Two phytoplanktonic blooms have been observed, first in winter, second less important in July-August. Any correlation cannot be observed between phytoplanktonic cycle or one its main components, and both environmental variables temperature and salinity. However dissolved oxygen ratio may be subject to large summer variations, drifting towards until ecological desequilibrious.
Les investigations menées dans les étangs corses de Diana et Urbino pour la période de janvier à août 1985, ont permis de définir les principales caractéristiques du cycle microplanctonique. Deux efflorescences phytoplanctoniques ont été observées, la première en hiver avec Skeletonema costatum, Nitzschia delicatissima, Prorocentrum micans, Scrippsiella trochoidea et entre 13,2.106 et 28,7.106 cellules par dm3, la seconde moins importante en juillet-août : 5,3.10e à 10,7.106 cellules par dm3 avec comme espèces principales à Diana Leptocylindrus danicus, L. minimus, diverses dinophycées, et à Urbino Chaetoceros diuersus et Nitzschia sp. Aucune corrélation nette n'a pu être dégagée entre le cycle phytoplanctonique ou l'un de ses principaux composants et les deux variables de l'environnement température et salinité. Toutefois dans ces milieux relativement confinés, le taux d'oxygène dissous peut être sujet à de grandes variations estivales, pouvant aller jusqu'au déséquilibre écologique. Par ailleurs l'évolution des valeurs de l'indice de diversité spécifique de Gieason et surtout l'analyse des valeurs de l'indice de similitude de Sorensen confirment les observations antérieures relatives au particularisme des deux étangs.

Résumé : The albacore is not always found in the same spots in the Madeiran waters: It sometimes cruises in deep waters and sometimes at the surface. In 1923, I described the Madeiran fishing techniques for both cases: for deep-sea fishing, fishermen drop their lines at depths of between 50 metres and 300 metres. [...]
Le Germon ne se présente pas toujours de la même façon dans les eaux de Madère : tantôt il est en profondeur, tantôt en surface. Dès 1923, j'ai décrit les procédés de pêche madériens dans l'un et l'autre cas : pour la pêche en profondeur, les pêcheurs mouillent leurs lignes à des profondeurs différentes qui s'échelonnent entre 50 mètres et 300 mètres. Il y a six lignes par embarcation, munies d'un seul hameçon auquel on attache un poisson vivant (maquereau, chichard, etc.). En surface le germon se présente en troupes nombreuses que les pêcheurs désignent sous le nom d'atum de cacho (thons en grappe). Ils le pêchent le long du bord à l'aide d'un engin spécial appelé salta para atum, manoeuvré par deux hommes, c'est une perche rigide de 2m50 prolongé par une branche flexible de cognassier (marmeleiro) d'environ 70 centimètres à laquelle est fixée une ligne de 2 mètres terminée par un fil de laiton et un hameçon non boëtté.

Résumé : A 30-day trial was performed to evaluate the reproductive performance of wild and 2nd generation domesticated Farfantepenaeus duorarum broodstock. Changes in biochemical composition and fatty acids (FA) profile in the 1st and 4th spawn order females were used as indicators of nutritional condition. Wild population of F. duorarum presented significantly better reproductive outcomes as compared to domesticated ones. Wild spawners achieved significantly higher number of eggs per spawn, number of egg per spawn per g of spawner's body weight and number of nauplii per spawn (P<0.05). Latency period was significantly shorter (P<0.05) for wild than for domesticated females (11 vs 17 days). Wild spawners also presented less mortality (6 vs 12%), higher number of total spawns (51 vs 33), spawns per ablated and per spawning females as well as higher total eggs and nauplii production. On the other hand, domesticated females presented higher number of females that spawned at least once (89 vs 76%). The higher spawning activity was reflected in lower levels of acylglycerides (AG) and cholesterol content in wild hepatopancreas (HP) and ovary (OV) (P<0.05). FA profile, mainly represented by ARA, EPA and sum of n-3 were higher in hepatopancreas and ovary of wild females, however lower levels were detected in eggs as a result of a high spawning activity. Multivariate analysis performed to detected simultaneous variation in biochemical variables indicated AG as variation pattern's responsive. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Résumé : Peneid shrimp are commonly reared in clear-water aquaria or tanks for short-term studies of 4-6 weeks during controlled experiments, such as nutrition studies to estimate dietary nutrient requirements. Recently, in line with the genetic program at Centre Oceanologique du Pacifique (COP), experimental clear-water facilities were tested for the first time over a longer rearing period. Environmental conditions used to maintain animal growth in clear-water system using a well-balanced diet were defined. After 100 days, shrimp growth rates tended to decrease and only by adjusting the diet could shrimp complete their life cycle and reach maturation size of around 40 g. This paper presents information on stocking density, diet quality and husbandry linked to reproduction that must be considered to successfully rear animals from PL's to breeder size in clear water. By following these protocols a minimum amount of breeders can be used to meet production goals. Moreover, by isolating a small group of individuals, genetic diversity can be preserved, thereby allowing specific crosses for selective breeding purposes. Length of trials, amount of feed, composition of feed, growth performances and maturation success are reported and should encourage further studies to optimize rearing conditions in clear-water rearing.
