Abstract:

In this study, tissue changes of the sex organs in the Tinca tinca fish in Anzali wetland and breeding conditions was compared. 96 fish were collected from the cultivating pool and 36 others from Anzali wetland. In the microscopic study of Tench and ovaries and testicles in different stages of sexual activity, from the samples of the wetland, from 3 fish of ovary, two of them were in stage III- IV and one was in stage III (colder water). Furthermore, in the samples, of 8 samples taken, 7 were in mature stage, and one was in stages III-IV (in warmer conditions). In late April, when the water temperature increased to 19°C, tissue from ovaries of fish contained follicles after foliar application (oocytes with accumulation of yolks and open oocytes). In the largest oocyte, the vacuoles were near the nucleus. The study on 24 fish species of stage 4 and 5 with weight from 50.9 to 228.2 gr and mean 99.86 ± 41.17 grams and a total length of 146 to 233 with a mean of 176.93 ± 22.28 mm and age equivalent to 3 to 6 with a mean of 4.00 ± 0.93 years. The absolute density ranged from 14086 to 153600 with a mean of 36362 ± 28208.77 and a relative density of 170.1 to 644.8, with an average of 367/9±125/02 pounds per gram of fish. The results are as follows: The testis of this fish is lobular and spermatogenesis in fish coincides with sperm shedding or absorption begins in the spawning season and gradually progresses to mid-autumn.By increase of temperature, the reproduction and sexual properties of male and female of Tench was significantly increased. The highest mean diameter of eggs was observed in May and the lowest in August. The peak of sexual maturation in female fish was in March and April. Spawning of fish began in May and continued until late July. Oogenesis and spermatogenesis in breeding environments start earlier than Anzali wetland.

The study of morphometric and meriestic features of Tench (Tinca tinca) In Anzali lagoon

Tench an economically important species in Anzali Lagoon has experienced a sharp catch decline in recent years. The present study aims at examining certain biological traits of the fish in Anzali lagoon. A sample of 96 pieces of such fish were netted out through gillnet fishing during Jan 2006-July 2007.  The findings showed incongruity in 11 out of 36 morphometric traits followed by 1 out of 1...

Eurasian tench (Tinca tinca): the next Great Lakes invader

A globally invasive fish, Eurasian tench (Tinca tinca) is spreading through the St. Lawrence River and poses an imminent invasion threat to the Great Lakes. Following its illegal release into a tributary of the St. Lawrence River in 1991, tench has spread throughout the river’s main stem over the past decade, and its abundance in commercial fishing bycatch in the river has grown exponentially. ...

Experimental lead nitrate poisoning: microscopic and ultrastructural study of the gills of tench (Tinca tinca, L.).

A microscopic, ultrastructural, and morphometric study was made of the gills of tench (Tinca tinca, L.) subjected to acute experimental lead nitrate poisoning. Twenty-one adult tench were subjected to poisoning and a further 22 were used as controls. Lesions were characterized by the appearance of edema and epithelial hyperplasia and necrosis, both in cells forming part of the filtration barrie...

Haematopoietic Potential of Tench (tinca Tinca) Pronephros in Relation to Ambient Temperature and Relative Condition Factor

The aim of this study was to detect the correlation between the change in the ambient temperature and adaptation of the pronephros – the main haematopoietic organ in fish, which so far has not been subject of research. Compared with other teleosts and their number of blood cells in peripheral blood, tench (Tinca tinca L. 1758) showed the corresponding trend of changes in number of pronephros ha...

Isolation and cryopreservation of early stages of germ cells of tench (Tinca tinca)

A practical technique for isolation and cryopreservation of tench (Tinca tinca) (Cyprinidae, Teleostei) early stages of germ cells (GC), including spermatogonia and spermatocytes, is reported for the first time. The germ-line cells possess the ability to differentiate into functional gametes of both sexes. These early stages of germ cells are small enough to be well-suited to cryopreservation, ...

Effects of Mixture of Pharmaceuticals on Early Life Stages of Tench (Tinca tinca)

Ubiquitous occurrence of pharmaceuticals in aquatic environment results in concern about potential adverse the effects on nontarget organisms. In water, drugs are present in complex mixtures, in which complicated interactions affect toxicity of single components. The purpose of this study was to examine effect of 35-day-long exposure to mixture of ibuprofen, diclofenac, and carbamazepine on the...
