Infectious pancreatic necrosis(IPN) virus was known as a causative agent of newly recognized viral disease of young rainbow trout characterized by highly contagious, high mortality and necrosis of pancreas. Several strains of IPN viruses were recovered from young rainbow trout that have been shown a typical cinical sign of infectious pancreatic necrosis disease. The field isolate produced cytopathic effect, and multiplied up to $10^{6.0}$ to $10^{6.5}$ $TCID_{50}/0.1ml$ in BT cell culture. In the indirect immunofluorescent assay with trout anti-IPN virus IgG and goat anti-trout IgG FITC conjugate, these isolates were proved to be a IPN virus that were closely related with VR277 strain of IPN virus antigenically.

The results of infection state of anisakid larvae and parasitic helminths in salmon and sea-trout which caught from Taep'o port. Kang-won do were as follows. 1) From twelve specimens of sea-trout. 122 individuals of anisakid larvae were found and mean infection number of anisakid larvae per individual sea-trout was 10.17. 2) From total extracted anisakid larvae from sea-trout. 37 larvae(30.3%) were found in the muscle. This percentage was lower than that of salmon. but higher than that of other sea-fishes. 3) The taxonomic list of parasitic helminths which found in salmon and sea-trout was as follows. Class Trematoda Family Hemiuridae l. Brachyphallus crenatus(Rudolphi. 1802) 2. Lecithaster salmonis Yamaguti. 1934 Class Cestoda Family Phllobothriidae 3. Pelichnibothrium speciosum Monticelli, 1889-larval form Family Tentacuariidae 4. Tentacularia sp. - larval form 4) Among those 4 species of helminths. B.crenatus.

The concentrations of astaxanthin and $\alpha$-tocopherol were measured from the muscle of the rainbow trout(Oncorhynchus mykiss) that had been fed the red yeast(Phaffia rhodozyma) containing 0.2% astaxanthin for 7, 14 and 21 days. The effect of the astaxanthin supplementation for 21 days on peroxidation of liver and muscle lipids of the rainbow trouts was examined. The astaxanthin was found to be accumulated in the rainbow trout muscle when fed for 7 days with astaxanthin supplementation(80mg/kg diet) in the form of the red yeast and the content did not increase further when fed longer up to 21 days. Seven days supplementation of astaxanthin raised the rainbow trout muscle content of the astaxanthin to 17.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/g tissue from 11.8$\mu\textrm{g}$/g tissue in mature control group. Although the hepatic TBARS level was found to be significantly decreased, the astaxanthin supplementation did not alter the $\alpha$-tocopherol and TBARS contents of the rainbow trout muscle.

Experimental infection of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss with viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV, genotype IVa) from olive flounder Paralichtys olivaceus was examined. The cumulative mortalities of three different lot of rainbow trout fry challenged with VHSV ($10^{6.3-7.3}TCID_{50}$/fish) were less than 15%. No difference of virulence was observed in experimental infection using 5 in vivo passaged VHSV and original VHSV. No mortality was observed in seawater-reared rainbow trout (adult) challenged with VHSV ($10^{5.3-6.3}TCID_{50}$/fish) and virus was not detected in the fish. We thus concluded that VHSV from olive flounder has low virulence to rainbow trout fry, but not pathogenic to seawater-rainbow trout (adult).

The effect of lipoxygenase (LOX) on the oxidation and co-oxidation of lipid fraction was studied in the model system of rainbow trout. For the reaction in model system 1 g of lipid fraction and 50mL of enzyme extract(LOX, 140 unit in 50mL phosphate buffer solution at pH 7,4)), which were obtained from rainbow trout, were homoginized in the presence of Tween 20 and kept at 23$\circ$C for 3 days. The activity of LOX was decreased to 43% of initial level during the reaction in the model system. The initial composition of rainbow trout lipid was showed to be consisted of trigliceride(TG;82%) and free fatty acid(FFA;0.1%), while this converted to 59% of TG and 20% of FIFA, respectively after reaction in model system. Change of fatty acid composition was also observed and the content of linoleic acid, one of the major fatte acids, was decreased to 13% from 54% in the content of total fatty acids after reaction. The carotenoids in rainbow trout were composed of 0.4% $\alpha$-carotene, 1.6% $\beta$ -carotene, 80% canthaxanthin, 7% lutein and 11% zeaxanthin, thus the canthaxanthin was the major component. This canthaxanthin was the most degraded carotenoid by lipoxygenase catalyzed co-oxidation during the reaction. On the other hand the tocopherol isomers found in the rainbow trout were $\alpha$ and $\beta$ -tocopherol, and $\alpha$-tocopherol had a higher degradation rate by the lipoxygenase catalyzed co-oxidation than of $\beta$-tocopherol in the reaction of model system.

Recently, mariculture of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) has been initiated in the coast areas of Korea. In the present study, we investigated the effect of fish viruses on mariculture of rainbow trout. The pathogenicity of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) isolated from freshwater rainbow trout was tested against major cultured marine fish species, including olive flounder (Paralichtys olivaceus), rock fish (Sebastes schlegeli), rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus), red seabream (Pagrus major) and sevenband grouper (Epinephelus septemfasciatus). The pathogenicity of marine birnavirus (MABV), hirame rhabdovirus (HIRRV) and nervous necrosis virus (NNV) isolated from marine fish species was also tested against rainbow trout. No mortality was observed in marine fish species challenged with IHNV or IPNV. However, olive flounder and rock bream were infected by IHNV and IPNV. A mortality of 8.3% was observed in rainbow trout challenged with HIRRV. The fish was infected by both MABV and NNV. These results suggest that the mariculture of rainbow trout might be affected by fish viruses.

The effects of estrogen and androgens on Vg gene expression were examined in primary hepatocyte culture and livers of the immature male trout. Specific primers of Vg cDNA were designed with already reported Vg gene nucleotide sequences. PCR product was sequenced and verified with Vg cDNA of rainbow trout. Total RNA was extracted from the cultured hepatocytes and livers of steroid-treated rainbow trout and then it was analyzed by reverse transcriptase- polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis. The Vg mRNA and Vg protein synthesis were increased in rainbow trout in vivo and in vitro with E$_2$ and methyltestosterone (MT) There were dose and time-related effects of E$_2$ and MT on vitellogesis. Androgens such as progesterone androsterone and testosterone also stimulated Vg mRNA expression in vitro. The results show that androgens as well as E$_2$ can induce expression of Vg mRNA in trout in vivo and in vitro.

Seawater adaptability of steelhead trout increases along with the increase in the size of the fish, independent of parr-smolt transformation. Three 96 h seawater challenge tests were conducted to determine the size at which seawater adaptability of steelhead trout develops. Plasma Na⁺ and Cl^- levels, moisture content, gill Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase activity, and mortality during the 96 h after direct transfer to seawater (32 ppt) were determined. Plasma Na⁺ and Cl^- levels in 50 g fish continuously increased during the 96 h after the transfer to seawater (p<0.05), but the levels in 100 and 150 g fish leveled off after 24 h (p<0.05). Both 100 and 150 g size steelhead trout maintained muscle moisture content (%) better than 50 g size fish (p<0.05). Gill Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase activity in the 100 g size group increased in a time-dependent manner after transfer to seawater (p<0.05), whereas activity in the 50 and 150 g sizes did not increase (p>0.05), for which a possible explanation was discussed. A mere 2.6% mortality in both the 50 and 150 g size groups was observed. In conclusion, the current results indicate that 50 g size steelhead trout did not show development of a high level of hypoosmoregulatory capacity, whereas fish in the 100 and 150 g size groups showed a high level in our experimental conditions. Therefore, the steelhead trout larger than a 100 g size is recommended for transfer to seawater culture.

In 2020 and 2022, the habitat of brown trout (Salmo trutta) was investigated in the Soyanggang River in Chuncheon, Gangwon province. As a result of the fish survey, A total of 43 individuals brown trout were identified. The total length of brown trout was widely confirmed from 60 cm or more to less than 10 cm. In January 2020, sperm release and spawn were observed in male and female confirmed at the St. 1. Brown trout were identified stably settled in the Soyanggang River and continues to live. In addition, benthic macroinvertebrates that can act as food sources of brown trout and abundantly inhabited. The riverbed structure is evenly composed of fine gravel and gravel, which constitutes the conditions necessary for habitat and spawning. However, the spawning grounds, spawned eggs and hatched fry have not yet been clearly identified, so continuous research is needed.

The relationship between structure and biological activity was studied on the three neuropeptides (mammalian, trout- and goldfish-neuropeptide $\gamma$) that were syntheized by the solid-phase method. Circular dichroism spectra showed that mammalian, trout- and goldfish-neuropeptide $\gamma$ adopted an unordered structure in buffer solution. In the-presence of neutral and acidic liposomes, mammalian and trout-neuropeptioe $\gamma$ also took a random structure. However, goldfish-neuropeptide $\gamma$ took an $\alpha-helical$ structure in acidic liposomes. The intestinal motility response was investigated with carp intestines, guinea-pig ileums and rat duodenums. In case of carp intestine, contractile activity was as follows : goldfish-neuropeptide $\gamma\simeq$ trout-neuropeptide $\gamma>$ mammalian-neuropeptide $\gamma$, On the other hand, the contractile activity of mammalian-neuropeptide $\gamma$ was more potent than trout- and goldfish-neuropeptide $\gamma$ in the guinea-pig ileums and rat duodenums. These results suggest that neuropeptide $\gamma$ show the species-specific activity.
