The growth parameters, mortality rates and exploitation population dynamic parameters and exploitation rate of Psettodes erumei were assessed between July 2010 to June 2011 using length frequency analysis. The data were collected from landing sites of Jask, Bandar Abass, Kong and Qeshm Hormozgan province waters. Using total weight (W) and total length (TL) data, the length- weight relationship ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between the stages of dental formation and the timing of eruption of mandibular second premolars. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample comprised panoramic radiographs of 25 children, 7 to 12 years old, observed by space supervision during development of dentition. The initial radiograph (T1) was taken in the mixed dentition period and the progress radiograph...

The mutton snapper Lutjanus analis is an overexploited species of economic importance for the Northeast region of Brazil. To determine the reproductive aspects of the mutton snapper, biological data were sampled from Bahia, Pernambuco, Paraíba, Rio Grande do Norte and Ceará States, between 7 and 200m depth, from February 1997 to December 1999, performed in the Brazilian Economic Exclusive Zone ...

Newly hatched black porgy larvae (Acanthopagrus schlegeli) swam to the surface, with the mouth and anus still closed and were 1.90-2.11 mm (mean, 2.0 mm) in total length (TL). The larvae were 2.71-2.94 mm TL (mean, 2.82 mm) on day 2 after hatching. At this time, about two-thirds of the yolk was absorbed, the bladder and intestines had formed, and the mouth and anus were open. Total length was 4...

in order to locate the qtls for plant height, peduncle length, and heading date, a set of 107 wheat doubled haploid (dh) lines derived from the cross fukuho-komugi× oligoculm was grown during the growing seasons of 2004 and 2005. a total of 36 qtls were identified based on composite interval mapping (cim) approach. all detected plant height qtl’s were stable over the two years. qtls located nea...

In spite of the abundance and commercial importance of these two species, there is little published weight-length data for the gafftopsail catfish (Bagre marinus) and hardhead catfish (Ariopsis felis). For this study 84 catfish were caught (hook and line) from the Calcasieu Estuary in Southwest Louisiana near the Gulf of Mexico and estuaries and near shore waters close to bayou Lafourche. Using...

In the present study fecundity of Terapon puta was estimated for 47 matured females from the Bay of Bengal, Pondicherry. The fecundity (F) was found to range from 20,002 to 1,23,042 in fishes between 134-219mm Total length(TL) and 30-78 gm weight respectively. The co-efficient of correlation for F/TL (log F = 0.790+1.731 log TL), F/SL (log F = 0.799+1.773 log SL), F/TW (log F = 2.590+0.450 log ...

this study reports the length-weight relationship (lwr), fulton's condition factor ( k ), and sex ratio of the non-native catfish hoplosternum littorale (hancock, 1828) in florida for the first time. sampling was conducted from november 2013 to april 2014 in tosohatchee wildlife management area in christmas, florida. a total of 477 specimens were caught (6.4-13.5 cm tl). the allometric coeffici...
