摘要

Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is an economically important species in China’s marine fishery industry. However, due to long-term intensive fishing, its wild population has declined sharply. Artificial stock enhancement has become a core measure for restoring its resources. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different immersion durations and concentrations of SrCl2solution (10, 20, 40, 80 mg/L) on strontium (Sr) deposition in the otoliths ofP. olivaceus, and to systematically evaluate the impacts of Sr marking on the fish’s antioxidant capacity and digestive enzyme activity. The results showed that the otolith Sr/Ca ratio was positively correlated with marking concentration and duration; the optimal parameters were 40 mg/L for 4 days, with the Sr/Ca ratio returning to baseline after 30 days post-marking, and a 100% marking success rate. There were no significant differences in body length, body weight, or condition factor between the experimental groups and the control group (p> 0.05), but mortality was significantly increased in the 80 mg/L group. Digestive enzymes exhibited a dose-dependent response to Sr exposure, characterized by activation at low concentrations and inhibition at high concentrations; lipase was the most sensitive, with an inhibition threshold of 10 mg/L. Sr marking within the range of 20–40 mg/L for 4–8 days significantly activated the activity of T-AOC, CAT, GPx, and SOD (p< 0.05) and reduced MDA content, indicating that the antioxidant system was activated without causing persistent oxidative damage. In conclusion, Sr marking is a safe and efficient method for otolith marking in Paralichthys olivaceus. The recommended protocol is immersion in a 40 mg/L SrCl2solution for 4 days, followed by a 30-day recovery period in clean seawater before being used for stock enhancement evaluation. This study provides a scientific basis and technical support for assessing the effectiveness of stock enhancement inP. olivaceus.
