impacts of shahid rajaii dam on genetic variation and differentiation siah mahi, capoeta capoeta gracilis, in tajan river using rapd fingerprinting

Fourteen years after the Shahid-Rajaei dam construction: an evaluation of morphometric and genetic differentiation between isolated up- and downstream populations of Capoeta capoeta gracilis (Pisces: Cyprinidae) in the Tajan River of Iran.

We evaluated the effects of the Shahid-Rajaei dam, 14 years after its construction, on morphometric and genetic divergence between up- and downstream populations of the Iranian fish Siah-Mahi (Capoeta capoeta gracilis). Sixty-six specimens were analyzed. There were significant differences between the 2 groups in the means of 16 morphometric characters (univariate analysis). In discriminant func...

TOXIC EFFECTS OF COBALT PARAHYDROXY- BENZOATE ON TISSUE HISTOPATHOLOGY AND SERUM PROTEINS IN Capoeta capoeta capoeta

Cobalt, which is commonly used in many fields, may present an environmental risk. In this study, effects of cobalt parahydroxybenzoate (CoPHB), a less known form of cobalt, on tissue histopathology and serum proteins of Capoeta capoeta capoeta were investigated. Fish obtained from Kars River, Turkey were placed for 10 days in 500 L-containers in which CoPHB was added at 1 or 2 mg/L of final con...

Comparison of Copper Concentrations in Liver and Muscle of Squalius cephalus and Capoeta capoeta gracilis

The aim of this study was to determine and compare the concentration of copper (Cu) in liver and muscle of two fish species Squalius cephalus and Capoeta capoeta gracilis. The fish were caught in four sampling sites along Tajan River, Mazandaran Province, northern Iran. The concentration of Cu was determined using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. There were significant differences (P

the impact of manjil and tarik dams (sefidroud river, southern caspian sea basin) on morphological traits of siah mahi capoeta gracilis (pisces: cyprinidae)

it has been postulated that the building of the manjil and tarik dams on sefidroud river has led to the body shape variation of capoeta gracilis in up- and downstream populations due to the isolation. in this study, geometric morphometric approach was used to explore body shape variations of capoeta gracilis populations in up- and downstream manjil and tarik dams in sefidroud river from south o...

"occurrence of clinostomum complanatum (rudolphi, 1819) (digenea: clinostomatidae) in capoeta capoeta gracilis (osteichthys: cyprinidae) from shiroud river, iran"

112 specimens of capoeta capoeta gracilis from the shrioud river were examined. the prevalence and abundance of parasites were significantly higher in the area between the mouth to behind the opercle. susceptibility of infection was not significantly different between male and female fish. the prevalence of infection was the lowest in the largest length group. histopathological study revealed b...

Short Communication: Ichthyotoxism in Capoeta capoeta gracilis (Keyserling, 1861) from west of Urmia ( Marmisho Lake), Iran
