متن کاملThe effect of different photoperiod on growth and survival in guppy larvae (Poecilia reticulata)
Growth in animals is controlled by genetic, environmental, and nutritional factors, including external factors (temperature, pressure, salinity, and light) in the evolution of cold-blooded animals. In this study, the effects of three different light treatments on the growth and survival rates of guppy larvae (Poecilia reticulata) were investigated. The larvae of this species with an average ini...
