Myxozoans are an economically important group of microscopic parasites best known for the diseases they cause in commercially important fish hosts. The classification of myxosporeans is generally based on the morphology of their myxospores. Without molecular data, it is very difficult to identify new or existing species. DNA sequence information is therefore, a prerequisite to taxonomic and phy...

Bream pond aquaculture plays a very important role in China's aquaculture industry and is the main source of aquatic products. To regulate and control pond water quality and sediment, a movable solar pond aquaculture water quality regulation machine (SMWM) was designed and used. This machine is solar-powered and moves on water, and its primary components are a solar power supply device, a sedim...

The study was designed to isolate and characterize the collagen from skin, scales and fins of Cyprinus carpio and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix. For this purpose nine fishes of each species of three weight groups were collected and categorized as W1 (250-500 g), W2 (501-750 g) and W3 (7511000 g). The maximum skin protein content was recorded as 28.13% and 29.13% in C. carpio and H. molitrix, resp...
