currently, white fish or kutum rutilus frisii is considered to be a good candidate for commercial aquaculture. however, little information is available regarding the nutritional requirement of this fish fry. experiments were conducted to examine the effects daphnia magna as live food cultured on two freshwater green algae, chlorella sp. and scenedesmus obliquus enriched with different b group v...

The histopathological effects of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate on the gill, liver and kidney tissues of the Caspian kutum, Rutilus frisii kutum were studied. The fish were exposed to three sublethal concentrations of anionic detergent, Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) for short term intervals (192 h). Gill, liver and kidney samples were collected after 192 h of exposure to LAS and lesions we...

A 60-days feeding trail was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary digestible energy levels (DE) on kutum, Rutilus frisii kutum. Four is nitrogenous (35% protein) diets with digestible energy levels of 2500, 2600, 2700 and 2800kcal kg-1 was tested. Two hundred and forty advanced fry (2±0.4g) were randomly distributed in 12 fiberglass tanks of 400L capacity. Nutritional responses in terms ...

caspian kutum, rutilus frisii kutum, is one of the most commercially important fish species in the caspian sea, but there are few reports about the endocrinology of induced spawning in this fish. in the present study, 54 individuals of female broodstocks of kutum were studied for quantity and quality of propagation index, during march and april 2007. hormone treatments include: lhrh-a2 (1 ?g kg...

To assess changes of gonad development and sex steroids hormones of R. frisii kutum, broodfish were captured during spawning season 2010 (March-April) and induced intramuscularly with following hormone treatments: single injections of 1 μg kg b.w. LHRH-A2, combination of LHRH-A2 with two dopamine antagonists as follows: 1 μg kg b.w. LHRH-A2 + 5 mg kg-1 b.w. PIM, 1 μg kg b.w. LHRH-A2 + 2.5 mg kg...
