The short-term effects of intramuscular inoculation of sublethal dose (4 x 107 cfu /ml) of aeromonads viz. Aeromonas salmonicida and Aeromonas hydrophila on the activities of catalase, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase in adult Channa punctatus (Bloch) were investigated. Spectrophotometric method was used to determine the activities of these enzymes from haemolysate, liver and kidney of...

Channa striata, locally known as "haruan", is economically important in fisheries and aquaculture industries in several Asian countries. DNA sequencing, based on a partial segment of the Cytochrome oxidase c subunit 1 (CO1) gene, was used to determine genetic variation in C. striata samples from four different populations on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The highest nucleotide and hapl...
