The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between length, weight, condition factor (K), and relative (Kn) Mystus tengara (Hamilton, 1822), with special emphasis on seasonal variation growth patterns, productivity, stocks, conservation in two distinct ecosystems: pond river. results demonstrate that species did not strictly adhere predicted cube law had allometric patterns throughout ...

This study dealt with physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics of the lipid obtained from Mystus vittatus and some nutritional properties of the fish. The fish was found to contain moisture 76.98%, calcium 521.072 mg / 100gm, vitamin C 11.276 mg / 100 gm., lipid 1.89%, and protein 10.94% respectively. The specific gravity, refractive index and co-efficient of viscosity of this lip...

The thyroid gland of Mystus vittatus was unencapsulated, composed of follicles scattered mainly around the ventral aorta in the sub pharyngeal region. Each follicle provided with agranular eosinophilic colloid materials in the central lumen was encircled by a single layer of epithelial cells. The follicular cells varied according to the secretary activity in harmony with the reproductive cycle....

Different cell types were identified in the pituitary gland of Mystus vittatus on the basis of their characteristic arrangement, distribution and tinctorial properties. The adenohypophysis was subdivided into three distinct zones innervated by the process of neurohypophysis. The acidophilic prolactin (PRL) cells and adrenocorticotropic cells were observed in the rostral pars distalis (RPD). The...
