An investigation was conducted to identify the allochthonous microbiota (entire intestine) and the autochthonous microbiota in proximal intestine (PI) and distal intestine (DI) of four species of Indian air-breathing fish (climbing perch; Anabas testudineus, murrel; Channa punctatus, walking catfish; Clarias batrachus and stinging catfish; Heteropneustes fossilis) by PCR based denaturing gradie...

To characterize the sensitivity of environmental low temperature on peripheral tissues of Channa punctatus, species of fishes which are energetic and survive in the critical environment, were exposed to cold (4~8C) for 30 min, 1 h, 2 h and 4 h. Among the peripheral tissues, liver, heart, skeletal muscle and gastro intestinal tract (GIT) of fishes were examined after given cold acclimation. Tota...

Molluscicidal activity of different organic solvent extracts of latex of Euphorbia pulcherima and Euphorbia hirta (Family-Euphorbiaceae) against two freshwater harmful snails Lymnaea acuminata and Indoplanorbis exustus has been reported. Both the snails are the intermediate hosts of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica, which cause endemic fascioliasis in cattle and livestock of Eastern par...

Nearly all of India's regions' water sources endure an intolerable burden harmful pollution. Aquatic contamination is a result waste product discharge and anthropogenic runoff. The environment has turned into repository for chemical contaminants that seep estuaries other aquatic environments, immobilising the biota, including heavy metals. Heavy metals like chromium can be both helpful destruct...
