Abstract:

Karyological characteristics of bighead goby (Neogobius kessleri) in the Caspian Sea were studied by examining 30 metaphase chromosome spreads from the kidney tissue of 10 specimens. The chromosome number of this species was found 2n=46 and the arm number as NF=46. The prepared karyotype of this species consisted of 23 pairs acro-telocentric (a-t) chromosomes. The chromosomal formula can be stated as 2n=46 (a-t). Karyological parameters showed that relative length was between 2.34-7.04 and length variation range of chromosomes was between 1.67-5.01 and total length was 71.16µm. It was found that the best chromosomal spread quality were obtained from intraperitonial injection of 40µg/g colchicine for 5 hours, hypotonization of samples in%1 sodium tri-citrate solution in 4ºC and preparation of spreads on cooled slide with flame technique.

Survey on the metazoan parasites in Neogobius fishes from Southeastern part of the Caspian Sea

In this study a parasitological investigation on 238 samples of Neogobius species from the south-east of Caspian Sea was carried out. The samples including Neogobius melanostomus (35), N. fluviatilis pallasi (103), N. kessleri gorlap (70) and N. bathybius (30) were seasonally seined by beach net during one year (summer 2006-spring 2007), fixed in 10 % buffer formalinand transferred to the labor...

Phytoplankton Combination in the Southern Part of Caspian Sea

The present study was conducted in southern part of Caspian Sea, Iran. All samples were taken during 1995-1996 and 2006-2007 in 6 transects such as Lisar, Anzali, Sefidroud, Noushahr, Babolsar and Amirabad. The phytoplankton compositions were significantly changed with seasons (P<0.05). In compare to after Mnemiopsis leidyi arrival, the population of phytoplankton species were increased. Totall...

Comparative Study of Electrophoretic Characteristics of Serum Albumin of round Goby Neogobius Melanostomus from Black Sea and Azov Sea

Concentration and electrophoretic properties of blood serum albumin of the round goby Neogobius melanostomus caught in Black Sea and Azov Sea were studied in relation to age, sex, maturation stage and season. Electrophoretic mobility of serum albumin in Black Sea fish increased with age, while in Azov Sea goby it varied less. No differences were observed in albumin characteristics between femal...
