Based upon morphological characters, Silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis (or Aristichthys nobilis) have been classified into either the same genus or two distinct genera. Consequently, the taxonomic relationship of the two species at the generic level remains equivocal. This issue is addressed by sequencing complete mitochondrial genomes of H. mol...

The relationship of gonad weight and liver weight with body weight of six fish species viz; Catla catla, Labeo rohita, Cirrhina mrigala, Hypophthlamichthys molitrix, Ctenopharyngodon idella and Cyprinus carpio under the influence of artificial feed, broiler manure, buffalo manure, N:P:K (25:25:0) and a control pond were examined after a rearing period of one year. The positive relationship betw...

in the present investigation a total of six parasite species, some eye-specific and others non-organ specific parasites were found in the eyes of 48 examined fish species, collected from fresh and brackish waters of iran during 2004-2006. ichthyophthirius multifiliis  was isolated from the external surface of the eyes of oncorhynchus mykiss, gyrodactylus stankovici from cyprinus carpio and lern...

Background: Test of pahogenecity of fish pathogens usually done by injection or ingestion of the bacterial samples on the fish. Objective of the current research was to introduce a new method of testing pathogenecity of fish pathogens through an artificial infection system. The targeted method was to observe the pathogenecity in aquarium condition by direct infection of the system water with ba...

The study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of food borne trematode infections in commercially important fish species of Pakistan such as, Labeo rohita (rohu), Cirrhinus mrigala (mori), Catla catla (thaila), Hypophthalmichthys molitrix (silver carp). For this purpose 222 different samples of fishes were collected from different water bodies i.e. Rawal Dam, Islamabad, Mangla Dam (Mirpur) ...
