During surveys of parasites of the whitemouth croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Desmarest) and the mullet Mugil platanus Günther from Samborombón Bay, Argentina, Trichodina puytoraci, T. lepsii, T. jadranica, T. murmanica, Diparitella simplex and Trichodina scalensis sp. n. were morphologically studied. Taxonomic and morphometric data for these trichodinids based on dry silver nitrate-impregnated...

Survival analysis was applied to fisheries catch at age data to develop maximum likelihood estimators for stock assessment. This new method estimated natural mortality, fishing mortality and catchability from typical catch at age matrices. Monte Carlo simulations suggested estimates were unbiased and provided a better fit than the traditional multinomial approach. Application to a dataset from ...

Listeria monocytogenes, characterized by a high mortality rate in humans, is bacterium that causes listeriosis and found various aquatic products. The aim of this research was to investigate the presence, serotype distribution, virulence factor genes, antibiotic susceptibility L. monocytogenes strains isolated from total 500 fish samples whiting (Merlangius merlangus euxinus) (n:243) striped re...

A bioeconomic model was built to assess the contribution of more selective trawl nets objectives European Multi-Annual Plan for demersal fisheries in Western Mediterranean (WM MAP). The biological submodel parameterized with age-structured population parameters five target stocks WM MAP (European hake, red mullet, deep-water rose shrimp, Nephrops and shrimp) a sixth stock combining remaining co...

 Abstract—The present study was conducted to identify the type of food taken by mullet fish. To study the food and feeding habits, a total of 80 fish samples were collected from upper zone of Merbok estuary. Two methods were followed, namely occurrence and numerical for the analysis of gut contents. The observation identified algae, diatoms, desmids, plant materials, annelids, crustaceans, fis...

this investigation was conducted to survey the growth and survival rate, weight average, fcr, and harvestable white leg shrimp biomass during 107 days culture in mono and poly culture earth pond system with mullet fish. nine 600 m2 earth ponds  were prepared and stocked with 20 shrimp post larvae in each pond (mean weight 0.007 ±0.001 g) for three treatments (each with three replication). after...
