three mesh sizes of multiflament trammel nets (22 mm, 24 mm, and 26 mm) were used in finike bay for red mullet (mullus barbatus l., 1758). the sampling program was arranged during february to may 2012. holt (1963) method was used for selectivity of trammel nets. red mullet was the dominant species in 22 mm mesh size at 52.86%, followed by 25.7% with the 24 mm net and 21.43% with the 26 mm net. ...

Mercury (Hg) is one of the main chemicals currently altering Mediterranean ecosystems. Red mullet (Mullus barbatus and M. surmuletus) have been widely used as quantitative bio-indicators of chemical contamination. In this study, we reassess the ability of these species to be used as efficient bio-indicators of Hg contamination by monitoring during 18 months Hg concentrations in muscle tissue of...

the objectives of this study were to determine the age, growth, mortality and exploitation of a commercially important fish of northeastern mediterranean sea, mullus barbatus from the karatas coast of iskenderun bay during september 2002 and april 2003. a total of 212 specimens of red mullet were collected by monthly sampling using traditional bottom trawl net by commercial vessel (coskun reis,...

Highly productive and vulnerable habitats such as maerl crinoid beds are subject to severe impacts from trawling in Mediterranean Sea. One of the most valuable target species that inhabit these is red mullet, Mullus barbatus, which can achieve there optimum feeding conditions based on infauna, provide some Fatty Acids (FAs) Polyunsaturated (PUFAs) essential shaping life history traits growth re...
