Description
本發明關於一種珊瑚培養方法,特別關於一種使用微型系統之珊瑚培養方法。The present invention relates to a coral cultivation method, in particular to a coral cultivation method using a micro system.
珊瑚礁是個色彩繽紛且生機旺盛的生態系,對海洋生物生態及資源非常重要。然而,珊瑚對於海水的變化是非常敏感且脆弱,因此珊瑚的復育及珊瑚的相關研究能做為海洋資源規劃的參考。Coral reefs are colorful and vibrant ecosystems that are very important to marine life and resources. However, corals are very sensitive and vulnerable to changes in seawater, so coral restoration and related research on corals can be used as a reference for marine resource planning.
為了能進行珊瑚的相關研究,研究者需要進行珊瑚培養,以便進行各種實驗測試,例如測試珊瑚對於不同成分的反應能了解海水的汙染狀態。不過珊瑚的培養非常困難,傳統珊瑚培養是將珊瑚養於水族缸中,模擬珊瑚在海洋的生長環境,才能養得活珊瑚。實驗測試時也是在整個水族缸進行,一旦珊瑚死亡又需重新培養才能再進行實驗。In order to conduct related research on corals, researchers need to culture corals in order to conduct various experimental tests, such as testing corals' responses to different components to understand the pollution status of seawater. However, the cultivation of corals is very difficult. The traditional coral cultivation is to raise corals in an aquarium to simulate the growth environment of corals in the ocean, so as to raise living corals. The experimental test is also carried out in the whole aquarium. Once the coral dies, it needs to be recultivated before the experiment can be carried out again.
因為珊瑚的培養難度,使得珊瑚的研究成本無法降低,除了維護水族缸的成本、空間成本、耗材成本等也相當高,耗費的時間成本也相對高,亟需更有效並更節省成本的替代方案。Because of the difficulty of coral cultivation, the cost of coral research cannot be reduced. In addition to the cost of maintaining the aquarium, the cost of space, the cost of consumables, etc. are also quite high, and the time-consuming cost is also relatively high. There is an urgent need for more effective and cost-effective alternatives. .
本發明提供一種珊瑚培養方法,包含:將一健康珊瑚片段固定於微型透明容器中;培養於恆溫23~25°C之海水環境中;以及提供範圍60至120μmol/m 2/s的光照強度。 The invention provides a coral cultivation method, comprising: fixing a healthy coral segment in a miniature transparent container; cultivating in a seawater environment with a constant temperature of 23-25°C; and providing an illumination intensity ranging from 60 to 120 μmol/m 2 /s.
於某些具體實施例中,使用之光源至少包含藍光及紅光。In some embodiments, the light source used includes at least blue light and red light.
於某些具體實施例中,該光源每天照射10至14小時。In some embodiments, the light source is irradiated for 10 to 14 hours per day.
於某些具體實施例中,珊瑚培養方法進一步包含每周餵食兩次蛋白質。In some embodiments, the coral cultivation method further comprises feeding protein twice a week.
於某些具體實施例中,該蛋白質為豐年蝦。In certain embodiments, the protein is brine shrimp.
於某些具體實施例中,該豐年蝦的份量為5~11隻/毫升海水。In some specific embodiments, the amount of the brine shrimp is 5-11 per milliliter of seawater.
於某些具體實施例中,每次餵食完超過2~5小時後進行換水。In some embodiments, the water is changed more than 2-5 hours after each feeding.
於某些具體實施例中,該海水鹽度為32至38之間。In some embodiments, the salinity of the seawater is between 32 and 38.
於某些具體實施例中,光照強度在60至80μmol/m 2/s的範圍。 In some embodiments, the light intensity is in the range of 60-80 μmol/m 2 /s.
於某些具體實施例中,該微型透明容器為培養皿。In some embodiments, the miniature transparent container is a Petri dish.
本發明所提供之珊瑚培養方法讓珊瑚穩定生長在微型系統中,可以顯著提高珊瑚的生長速度,且能培養長達三個月以上。由於珊瑚能存活在微型系統中,因此節省了空間成本、培養耗材成本(例如海水、容器、食物等)。進行珊瑚實驗時,也僅需少量試劑就可達到測試條件,減少了試劑成本及樣本數的消耗。更重要的是,可以直接將珊瑚及微型系統移到顯微鏡下進行觀察,能觀察到細胞級別的變化,對於研究上的幫助顯著優於傳統使用水族缸的培養方法。The coral cultivation method provided by the invention enables the coral to grow stably in the micro system, can significantly increase the growth speed of the coral, and can be cultivated for more than three months. Since corals can survive in the micro system, space cost, cost of cultivation consumables (such as sea water, container, food, etc.) are saved. When conducting coral experiments, only a small amount of reagents are needed to meet the test conditions, which reduces the cost of reagents and the consumption of samples. More importantly, corals and micro-systems can be directly moved to the microscope for observation, and changes at the cell level can be observed, which is significantly more helpful to research than the traditional cultivation method using aquariums.

實施例Example 珊瑚培養試驗Coral culture experiment
如圖1所示,選取健康的石珊瑚或軟珊瑚群體,剪下約5*5 mm的珊瑚片段(步驟A),將珊瑚片段以水下瞬間膠固定在培養皿上(步驟B),再加入海水(鹽度約為34~36)覆蓋珊瑚片段(步驟C)。以培養皿所需的海水體積約為60ml,並蓋上蓋子以防止水份蒸發。將培養皿放入恆溫培養箱中以約23°C ~25°C恆溫進行培養(步驟D)。As shown in Figure 1, select a healthy stony coral or soft coral group, cut out about 5 * 5 mm coral fragments (step A), fix the coral fragments on the petri dish with underwater instant glue (step B), and then Add seawater (salinity about 34~36) to cover the coral fragments (step C). The volume of seawater required for the petri dish is about 60ml, and the lid should be covered to prevent water from evaporating. Put the petri dish into a constant temperature incubator and cultivate it at a constant temperature of about 23 ° C ~ 25 ° C (step D).
恆溫培養箱中裝設有適合珊瑚生長的LED燈 (Illumagic,台灣),每天照光12小時。如圖2之LED燈光譜圖所示,LED光源主要波長為370nm、400nm、420nm與450nm的藍光及少部分620nm的紅光所組成的光源,其相對強度是指每個波長分別對應出來的光強度值(單位:mW/m
2)除以整個光譜圖中最高峰的光強度數值再乘100%;也就是將光譜圖中的最高峰視為相對強度100%,換算出其他波長(nm)的相對強度值。在此圖中最高峰為470nm代表其相對強度為100%,則按照此為基準,620nm的紅光波長相對應強度約為20-30%。不同波長區段的藍光皆能被珊瑚利用。
LED lights (Illumagic, Taiwan) suitable for coral growth were installed in the constant temperature incubator, and the light was illuminated for 12 hours every day. As shown in the LED light spectrum diagram in Figure 2, the main wavelength of the LED light source is blue light of 370nm, 400nm, 420nm and 450nm and a small part of red light of 620nm. The relative intensity refers to the light corresponding to each wavelength. The intensity value (unit: mW/m 2 ) is divided by the light intensity value of the highest peak in the entire spectrum and multiplied by 100%; that is, the highest peak in the spectrum is regarded as
珊瑚在生長過程中會從水中吸收鈣離子以及碳酸氫根以形成碳酸鈣的骨骼。培養皿中的珊瑚及其他微生物在代謝過程中亦會產生氨、亞硝酸鹽、硝酸鹽、磷酸鹽等營養鹽,但珊瑚是對於水中營養鹽濃度非常敏感的生物,因此控制營養鹽在極低濃度下是非常重要的培養細節。經研究,適合珊瑚生長之水質條件大約為:鹽度34~36 ppt、鹼度7~10 KH、鈣離子濃度380~450 ppm、磷酸鹽<0.03 ppm、硝酸鹽<0.2 ppm、亞硝酸鹽<0.2 ppm、氨<0.1 ppm。本發明實施例經測試採用每週餵食7~9隻/毫升海水剛孵化的豐年蝦 2 次,每次餵食3小時後將容器中的海水去除並添加新的海水以提供珊瑚適當的生長環境。Corals absorb calcium ions and bicarbonate ions from the water as they grow to form calcium carbonate skeletons. Coral and other microorganisms in the petri dish will also produce nutrients such as ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphate during the metabolic process. However, corals are very sensitive to the concentration of nutrients in the water, so the nutrients should be controlled at an extremely low level. Concentrations are very important culturing details. After research, the water quality conditions suitable for coral growth are approximately: salinity 34-36 ppt, alkalinity 7-10 KH, calcium ion concentration 380-450 ppm, phosphate <0.03 ppm, nitrate <0.2 ppm, nitrite < 0.2 ppm, ammonia <0.1 ppm. The embodiment of the present invention was tested by feeding 7 to 9 freshly hatched brine shrimp per milliliter of seawater twice a week, removing the seawater in the container and adding new seawater after each feeding for 3 hours to provide a suitable growth environment for corals.
為了了解不同光照強度對珊瑚片段的影響,測試三種不同光照強度下的珊瑚片段生長狀況。應用上述培養條件,使用三個珊瑚群體剪取三種不同光強度組別所需的珊瑚片段進行培養實驗,每個組別皆分別自三個珊瑚群體剪取9個珊瑚片段,故每組實驗珊瑚樣本數為27個。第一組別給予20~40μmol/m 2/s的光照強度進行培養及試驗,第二組別給予60~80μmol/m 2/s的光照強度進行培養及試驗,第三組別給予100~120μmol/m 2/s的光照強度進行培養及試驗。 In order to understand the effect of different light intensities on coral fragments, the growth of coral fragments under three different light intensities was tested. Applying the above culture conditions, three coral colonies were used to cut coral fragments required for three different light intensity groups for cultivation experiments. Each group cut 9 coral fragments from three coral colonies respectively, so each group of experimental corals The number of samples is 27. The first group was given a light intensity of 20-40 μmol/m 2 /s for cultivation and testing, the second group was given a light intensity of 60-80 μmol/m 2 /s for cultivation and testing, and the third group was given a light intensity of 100-120 μmol /m 2 /s light intensity for cultivation and experiment.
珊瑚片段觀察Coral Fragment Observation
如圖3A至圖3F所示,在第0天使用數位相機拍攝與觀察第一組別至第三組別的珊瑚片段放置在解剖顯微鏡下觀察的組織狀態,得到照片3A至照片3C,並在第4週拍照得到照片3D至照片3F。從照片的進展可以確認經過4週的培養,第二組別(60~80μmol/m
2/s)的珊瑚範圍明顯擴大了三倍,第三組別(100~120μmol/m
2/s)的珊瑚範圍明顯擴大了兩倍多,都比第一組別成長快速。
As shown in Figure 3A to Figure 3F, on the 0th day, use a digital camera to photograph and observe the tissue state of coral fragments from the first group to the third group placed under a dissecting microscope to obtain
如圖4A所示,觀察並記錄每個組別在第0天、第2週、第4週珊瑚片段的存活數量。珊瑚片段上有組織或是珊瑚蟲,即視為存活的珊瑚片段。珊瑚片段存活率的計算方法如下:存活率=(存活的珊瑚片段數量/原有的珊瑚片段數量) × 100%。經過4週的培養,每組的珊瑚片段存活率都依舊在100%,顯示在前述培養條件但不同的光照強度下,珊瑚片段存活率都不受影響。As shown in Figure 4A, observe and record the number of surviving coral fragments in each group on
如圖4B所示,觀察並記錄每組珊瑚片段第0天、第2週、第4週的珊瑚片段是否異常。異常的珊瑚片段定義為:(a) 出現共肉消失或組織剝落的片段或片段的組織與骨骼一起消失;以及(b)消失面積佔珊瑚片段原有的面積15%以上。珊瑚片段的異常率計算方法如下:異常率=(異常的珊瑚片段數量/原有的珊瑚片段數量)×100%。經過4週的培養,每組的珊瑚片段異常率都在0%,顯示在前述培養條件但不同的光照強度下,珊瑚片段異常率都不會增加。As shown in Figure 4B, observe and record whether the coral fragments of each group of coral fragments on
如圖5所示,觀察並記錄每組珊瑚片段第0天、第2週、第4週之珊瑚組織生長並附著到培養皿上的數量,附著的定義是新長出來的珊瑚組織貼附於培養皿,且沿著組織生長於在培養皿上。珊瑚片段的附著率計算方法如下:附著率=(附著的珊瑚片段數量/原有的珊瑚片段數量) × 100%。經過4週的培養,可以看到第二組別在第2週時的珊瑚片段附著率就突破20%,相較其他組別具有較快的附著速度。不過,到了第4週時,三個組別的珊瑚片段附著率都差不多在80%~100%之間。As shown in Figure 5, observe and record the number of coral tissue growth and attachment to the petri dish in the 0th day, the 2nd week, and the 4th week of each group of coral fragments. The definition of attachment is that the newly grown coral tissue is attached to Petri dish, and grow on the Petri dish along with the tissue. The calculation method of the attachment rate of coral fragments is as follows: attachment rate = (number of attached coral fragments/number of original coral fragments) × 100%. After 4 weeks of cultivation, it can be seen that the attachment rate of coral fragments in the second group exceeded 20% in the second week, which is faster than other groups. However, by the 4th week, the coral fragment attachment rates of the three groups were almost between 80% and 100%.
如圖6A所示,使用數位相機(SONY DSC-RX100M2,日本)在解剖顯微鏡下拍攝每個組別第0天、第2週、第4週的珊瑚片段照片,以美國國家衛生院開發的Image J軟體計算照片上珊瑚片段的面積大小,並計算珊瑚片段面積成長倍率,計算方法如下:面積成長倍率=(第n天的珊瑚片段面積 / 第0天的珊瑚片段面積),n=0, 14, 或28,統計方式為one-way ANOVA (p<0.05)。歷經4週的培養,培養前段都看不出三個組別有何差別,但是第4週可以顯著發現第二組別的珊瑚片段面積成長倍率最高,接著是第三組別,而第一組別的珊瑚片段面積成長倍率最低。因此,在前述培養條件下使用60~120μmol/m 2/s的光照強度能提高珊瑚成長速度,更佳可以使用60~80μmol/m 2/s的光照強度,可以大幅縮短培養珊瑚所需的時間。 As shown in Figure 6A, use a digital camera (SONY DSC-RX100M2, Japan) to take photos of coral fragments in each group on the 0th day, 2nd week, and 4th week under a dissecting microscope. J software calculates the area size of the coral fragments on the photo, and calculates the area growth rate of the coral fragments. The calculation method is as follows: area growth rate = (the area of the coral fragments on the nth day / the area of the coral fragments on the 0th day), n=0, 14 , or 28, the statistical method is one-way ANOVA (p<0.05). After 4 weeks of cultivation, there was no difference between the three groups in the first stage of cultivation, but in the 4th week, it can be clearly found that the growth rate of the area of coral fragments in the second group is the highest, followed by the third group, and the first group The area growth rate of other coral fragments is the lowest. Therefore, using a light intensity of 60-120 μmol/m 2 /s under the aforementioned culture conditions can increase the growth rate of corals, and it is better to use a light intensity of 60-80 μmol/m 2 /s, which can greatly shorten the time required for coral cultivation .
如圖6B所示,在第0天、第2週、第4週測量每個組別的珊瑚片段重量。在秤重前將培養皿內的水倒掉,以拭鏡紙擦乾剩餘液體後將培養皿及其上生長的珊瑚片段放置在精密天秤上測量三次,並取三次重量平均後計算珊瑚片段的重量變化。珊瑚片段重量成長量計算方法如下:重量成長量=[(第n天的培養皿重量-第0天的培養皿重量)/3],n=0, 14, 或28。在4週的培養過程可以發現,第二組別的珊瑚片段重量成長量較高於其他兩個組別,顯示使用60~80 μmol/m
2/s的光照強度對於珊瑚的生長有較好的促進效果。

共生藻的光化學效率實驗Photochemical Efficiency Experiment of Symbiotic Algae
在過去研究中,我們已經知道珊瑚會和共生藻共生,且共生藻提供珊瑚主要的營養來源,因此除了以基本的存活率及成長量來評價珊瑚的生理狀態之外,珊瑚體內共生藻的光化學效率 (Fv/Fm)是最常被用來評價珊瑚是否健康的評價方式 (Warner et al., 1999; Jones et al., 2000)。In the past research, we have known that corals will live in symbiosis with symbiotic algae, and symbiotic algae provide the main source of nutrition for corals. Chemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) is the most commonly used measure of coral health (Warner et al., 1999; Jones et al., 2000).
使用葉綠素螢光分析方法來測量並記錄三個組別第0天及第4週時珊瑚片段組織內的共生藻光系統II(PSII)之光化學效率變化。測量方法為將待測量的培養皿置於黑暗環境中30分鐘,接著使用Junior PAM 教學葉綠素螢光計(JUNIOR-PAM Teaching ChlorophyII Fluorometer) (Heinz Walz GmbH, 德國)在黑暗環境下隨機挑選珊瑚片段上有組織的位置先進行測量,將測得的Ft值(穩態值)固定為240±10,並在每個珊瑚片段隨機選取2個有組織的位置測量光系統II的光化學效率 (PSII photochemical efficiency, Fv/Fm),其中F0 為最低至最高螢光量間的差值,Fm 是黑暗狀態下照射飽和光源後螢光最高值,故依照運算公式Fv/Fm=(Fm-F0)/Fm測得光化學效率數值。Ft值為即時螢光產量,根據前人研究,珊瑚的Ft值大多落在200-300之間,而我們進行實驗時珊瑚的Ft值平均落在240±10將此數值固定以準確量測光化學效率。Chlorophyll fluorescence analysis method was used to measure and record the change of photochemical efficiency of Symbiodinium photosystem II (PSII) in coral fragment tissue of three groups on
如圖7所示,第一組別的珊瑚片段體內共生藻的光化學效率在第4週平均約為0.689 ± 0.002,第二組別及第三組別的珊瑚片段體內共生藻的光化學效率在第4週平均分別為0.627 ± 0.002與0.605 ± 0.003。上述光化學效率的數值皆在正常範圍內,可以顯示以20~120μmol/m
2/s光照強度培養的珊瑚體內的共生藻均健康。雖然在60~120μmol/m
2/s的光照強度下共生藻的光化學效率稍低,但以前述的珊瑚片段面積成長倍率及珊瑚片段重量成長量研究可知,60~80μmol/m
2/s的光照強度下成長速度是最快的,顯見些微的光化學效率數值差距並不影響珊瑚的生長。
As shown in Figure 7, the photochemical efficiency of the symbiotic algae in the coral fragments of the first group averaged about 0.689 ± 0.002 in the fourth week, and the photochemical efficiency of the symbiotic algae in the coral fragments of the second and third groups The mean values at
在過去研究中,以水族缸系統飼養的珊瑚鈣化效率在較強的光照 (300μmol/m 2/s,珊瑚群體上測得)培養下會高於以較弱的光照 (150μmol/m 2/s,珊瑚群體上測得)培養的珊瑚,使骨骼形成加速,而共生藻密度在較弱的光照培養會高於在較強的光照培養的密度 (Dobson et al., 2021)。 In previous studies, the calcification efficiency of corals reared in aquarium systems was higher under stronger light (300 μmol/m 2 /s, measured on coral colonies) than under weaker light (150 μmol/m 2 /s , measured on coral colonies) cultured corals, accelerated skeletal formation, and the density of symbiotic algae in weaker light cultures was higher than in stronger light cultures (Dobson et al., 2021).
然而,本發明實施例之珊瑚培養方法所使用的光照強度與過去研究相比,光照強度較弱,最大光照強度僅120μmol/m 2/s,並且發現在20~40μmol/m 2/s、60~80μmol/m 2/s、100~120μmol/m 2/s三種光照強度中,珊瑚片段在60~120μmol/m 2/s的光照下成長速度較佳。更特別的是,珊瑚片段在60~80μmol/m 2/s的光照下成長速度最快,並且與其他兩組光照培養的珊瑚片段均有統計上的差異,可見本發明實施例所提供的珊瑚培養方法克服過去的技術偏見並產生無法預期的功效。 However, the light intensity used in the coral cultivation method of the embodiment of the present invention is weaker than that used in previous studies, the maximum light intensity is only 120 μmol/m 2 /s, and it is found that the light intensity is between 20~40 μmol/m 2 /s, 60 Among the three light intensities of ~80μmol/m 2 /s and 100~120μmol/m 2 /s, coral fragments grew faster under the light of 60~120μmol/m 2 /s. More particularly, the coral fragments grow fastest under the light of 60-80 μmol/m 2 /s, and there are statistical differences with the coral fragments cultured in the other two groups of light. It can be seen that the coral fragments provided by the embodiments of the present invention Cultivate methods to overcome past technical biases and produce unanticipated efficacy.
如圖8A及圖8B所示,本發明實施例之珊瑚培養方法能持續培養珊瑚片段長達三個月,從照片可以看到珊瑚片段能持續穩定成長。另外,在培養過程中,水中的鹼度(碳酸氫根濃度)及鈣離子濃度均有被消耗而降低,亦可確認珊瑚有吸收養分並形成骨骼。由此可知,本發明實施例之培養方法能提供珊瑚各方面的成長需求,適合作為研究用或育種用珊瑚之培養手段。As shown in Figure 8A and Figure 8B, the coral cultivation method of the embodiment of the present invention can continuously cultivate coral fragments for up to three months, and it can be seen from the photos that the coral fragments can continue to grow steadily. In addition, during the cultivation process, the alkalinity (bicarbonate concentration) and calcium ion concentration in the water are both consumed and reduced, and it can also be confirmed that the coral absorbs nutrients and forms skeletons. It can be seen that the cultivation method of the embodiment of the present invention can provide various growth requirements of corals, and is suitable as a cultivation method for corals for research or breeding.
