abstract

rearing conditions such as density, temperature, water quality, and frequency of feeding are among the most important factors affecting fish growth in aquaculture. therefore, this study was done to evaluate effects of interaction between temperature and feeding frequency on the growth of juveniles caspian roach weighting approximately 0.5 ± 0.05 g during 45 days. juvenile fish were reared at four temperature levels of; 20, 24, 28 and 32 ° c, and the 3 feeding frequency of 2, 3 and 4 times/day. the juveniles were fed 5% of body weight per day. analysis of the results showed that increasing the feeding frequency improved growth rate (final weight), specific growth rate and feed conversion, however, significant differences were not observed in any of the treatments (p > 0.05). whereas significant difference was observed among treatments evaluated at different temperatures (p < 0.05) and best growth was observed at 20 and 24 °c treatments. finally, it can be concluded that the best conditions for rearing of juvenile caspian roach looks to be temperatures of 20 and 24 °c and 2 to 4 times feeding/day.

Sexual ornamentation, androgens and papillomatosis in male roach (Rutilus rutilus)

According to the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis, males with attractive sexual ornamentation are more handicapped than their less ornamented rivals because of the immunosuppressive androgens required for the production of secondary sexual characters. Here we studied the predictions of the hypothesis in a wild cyprinid fish, the roach (Rutilus rutilus). We assayed (1) sexual ornamentation (...

Sublethal effects of copper nanoparticles on the histology of gill, liver and kidney of the Caspian roach, Rutilus rutilus caspicus

The current study has determined the toxicity effects of copper nanoparticles on the some vital organs such as gill, liver and kidney of Caspian Roach; Rutillus rutillus caspicus. For this purpose, 120 fishes were used as experimental samples and exposed to 0.1, 0.2 and 0.5 mg/L of Cu nanoparticles for 21 days, and 30 fishes assumed as the experiment control. The mean water temperature...

Toxicity of Copper and Mercury to Caspian Roach Rutilus rutilus caspicus

Copper (Cu) and mercury (Hg) enter aquatic ecosystems from different sources threatening health of aquatic organisms such as fish. As such, in this investigation, determinaing, Cu and Hg toxic concentration in Caspian roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus), was undertaken. Acute toxicity of Cu and Hg were determined in fish specimen under semi-static condition. Caspian roach fry (~ 1 g) were exp...

Factors affecting between-lake variation in the occurrence of epidermal papillomatosis in roach, Rutilus rutilus (L.).

The theory of island biogeography predicts that the probability of a species occupying an island depends on a dynamic equilibrium between extinction and colonization. Epidermal papillomatosis is a disease manifesting as skin tumours on fish. We studied the factors affecting the occurrence of the disease in roach, Rutilus rutilus (L.), in 34 lakes. The results of discrimination analysis suggest ...
