Some studies with beef cattle have shown that breed and diet affect tissue fatty acid composition and meat quality (Choi et al., 2000; Scollan et al., 2001). However, the effects of breed are often confounded with differences in growth rate and body composition. Diet also affects fatty acid composition, however, feed composition studies are often confounded by the use of mixed diets and few have compared all-forage with all-concentrate diets. This study, therefore, was designed to compare Aberdeen Angus and Holstein-Friesian breeds growing at similar rates and fed either all-forage or a high concentrate diet.

The marine copepod species Oithona nana is considered as one of the most successfully mass cultured Cyclopoida species in marine hatcheries. This study investigated the effects of four feed diets (soybean, yeast, rice bran, and corn starch) on the population growth, growth rate, population composition, fecundity, and fatty acid composition of native isolated Cyclopoida copepod species O. nana. The experiment was continued for 15 days and the copepods were fed on one of the four diets with a concentration of 1 g 10−6 individual day−1. The results revealed that corn starch was found to be the most supportive diet for population growth and population growth rate. For nutritional value, copepods fed on rice bran were detected to have the highest content of MUFA, PUFA, and the lowest SFA and SFA/UFA ratio; more importantly, the rice bran diet was the only treatment that showed C20:5ω3. Moreover, copepods fed on rice bran showed the highest significant female fecundity, copepodite, and nauplii percent. Finally, the protocols described in the current study concluded that the dry feeds, especially corn starch, are very useful and applicable in hatcheries for maximizing the fecundity and density of Cyclopoida copepod species, O. nana.

The saturated/unsaturated fatty acid ratio of Escherichia coli 15T− decreases almost threefold as growth temperature decreases from 43 to 27 °C, whereas the ratio of a fast-growing mutant derived from 15T− changes only half as much. Strain 15T− experiences a 2.4-fold change in doubling time across this temperature range, but doubling time in the mutant changes 3.3-fold.

Escherichia coli 15T− was grown with glucose, succinic acid, aspartic acid, oleic acid, and oleic plus aspartic acids as carbon sources, and a fatty acid auxotroph derived from 15T− was grown on oleic acid and oleic plus aspartic acids. The doubling time, phospholipid composition, phosphorus content, and the fatty acid composition of the phospholipids of cells in each of the media were determined. In all cases, phosphatidylethanolamine was the major phospholipid present; but with 15T− its concentration was inversely proportional to the doubling time in unsupplemented media. With the auxotroph the phosphatidylethanolamine concentration was essentially unchanged with growth. Total lipid phosphorus was inversely proportional to doubling time, an effect particularly evident with the auxotroph. Without oleic acid supplementation, the major effects of carbon source on fatty acid composition are decreases in the content of palmitoleic acid and increases in the content of cis-9,10-methylene hexadecanoic acid as growth rate decreases. Oleic acid supplementation elevated 18:1 fatty acid content in both 15T− and the auxotroph.
