Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) and Sebestan (Cordia myxa) fruits were used as plant binders in the diets of Bunni (Barbus sharpeyi) . These beside a control diet without binder., compared with starch traditional binders.All included by 2% two replicates for each treatments. Feeding rate was 4% fish weight 70 days. The physical properties showed that has highest density while containing lowest fo...

Regarding low fertilization rate of Barbus sharpeyi, one of the main Barbus species in south of Iran, saline activator solutions (SAS 1 and 2) were used for increasing of sperm activation and its sperm quality indices were assessed by using Image J software as a fish sperm adapted tools. SAS 1 (45mM NaCl, 5mM KCl, 30mM Tris, 188±2.3 mosmol/kg) and SAS 2 (50mM NaCl, 30mM KCl, 30mM Tris, 189±1.7 ...

The present research aimed to determine acute toxicity and evaluate the effect of sub-lethal concentrations of diazinon on some haematological and immunological parameters of Barbus sharpeyi by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development methods. Juvenile B. sharpeyi were exposed to 0, 5%, 10% and 25% 96h LC50 concentrations of diazinon for 21 days. Blood samples were taken after ...

A survey on myxosporean parasites of freshwater fishes from Mesopotamian part of Iran (south western part of the country, Khuzestan Province) was carried out. Some 280 individuals belonging to 14 different species were examined the prevalence of myxosporean parasites, morphology of the spores, plasmodial development, the infective site, and characteristics of the cyst location using the histolo...

Fishes of buni ,(Barbus sharpeyi (Gunther,1874)) with average weight (20.13 ± 1.77) gm and common carp ,(Cyprinus carpio) (20.63 0.56) were reared in eight plastic aquariums 15 L cabacity. Four treatments (two replicates) carried out as following:(1) 10 per aquarium, (2) 8 one aquaria, (3) 6 another aquarium (4) aquarium. Artificial food (29.31 % protein) was fed to the fishes once daily 3 body...

The phylogenetic relationships and haplotype diversity of all Iberian barbels were examined by analyzing the complete mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequence (1141 bp) of 72 specimens from 59 Iberian localities. Phylogenetic findings demonstrated a clear distinction between two mitochondrial lineages and confirmed the existence of two previously considered subgenera: Barbus and Luciobarbus: Th...
