This study was conducted to assess the effects of water-borne Fe+Zn mixture on catalase activity in different organs Cirrhina mrigala and Labeo rohita. 90-day old fingerlings both fish species were exposed 1/2nd 1/5th their respective 96-hrs LC50 concentrations mixture, separately, at constant temperature (280C), pH (7.5), total hardness (225mgL-1). Fish sampling from each treatment done after ...

The relationship of gonad weight and liver weight with body weight of six fish species viz; Catla catla, Labeo rohita, Cirrhina mrigala, Hypophthlamichthys molitrix, Ctenopharyngodon idella and Cyprinus carpio under the influence of artificial feed, broiler manure, buffalo manure, N:P:K (25:25:0) and a control pond were examined after a rearing period of one year. The positive relationship betw...

Pethiyagoda et al. (2012) made available the genus-group name Dravidia (type species Cirrhinus fasciatus Jerdon, 1849: 305) for the ‘Puntius fasciatus’ group of fishes endemic to the peninsula of India. We were unaware at the time this paper was written (2010) that this name had shortly before been preoccupied by Dravidia Lehrer, 2010, in Diptera: Sarcophagidae. As such, a replacement name for ...

Oxidative stress caused by various pollutants in water can be overcome different mechanisms aquatic organisms. Antioxidant enzymes play major role to minimize the hazardous effect of heavy metals fish. Superoxide dismutase is one antioxidant enzyme that converts superoxide radical into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and thus free radicals. Therefore, aim this research was evaluate activity (SOD) orga...

Information on artificial breeding of Cirrhinus reba and Labeo bata is not common in Bangladesh. There are reports serious decline natural abundance these species considered threatened under present environmental situation. The should be brought culture systems to protect them from being dwindled. For optimizing the technique, experiment was conducted. Nine pairs male female each were used. fem...

A study was conducted to determine the growth performance and bioaccumulation and tolerance of metal mixture toxins in five fish species including Labeo rohita, Catla catla, Cirrhina mrigala, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Ctenopharyngodon idella separately, under chronic exposure of metal mixture (Fe + Zn + Pb) at sub-lethal concentrations (1/3 of LC50) for 12 weeks period. Moreover, response...

Ten years ago, very little was known about the genetics of most of the cyprinid species of interest to aquaculture in Asia, for example the Chinese carps, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) and grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella); Indian major carps, catla (Catla catla), rohu (Labeo rohita) and mrigal (Cirrhinus cirrhosus); and the silver barb (Barbo...
