This study investigates the effects of COVID-19 on fish consumption and nutrition intake based a random survey 247 consumers in Bangladesh. The Propensity Score Matching technique is used to compare fish-sourced between two groups before during COVID-19. result shows that 38% overall reduction for low-income group compared lower-middle, upper-middle- high-income groups. Furthermore, per capita ...

Length–weight relationship, condition factor (K), relative (Kn), fecundity and egg diameter of Mystus vittatus (Bloch, 1794) were estimated from 120 individuals collected the Mouri river Khulna district, Bangladesh during 7th August to 25th October 2006. The total length (LT) ranged 7.2 cm (body weight (W) 6.9 g) 13.4 (W=24.2 for male 12.1 (W=14.39 13.6 (W=23.29 female. logarithmic relationship...

This study dealt with physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics of the lipid obtained from Mystus vittatus and some nutritional properties of the fish. The fish was found to contain moisture 76.98%, calcium 521.072 mg / 100gm, vitamin C 11.276 mg / 100 gm., lipid 1.89%, and protein 10.94% respectively. The specific gravity, refractive index and co-efficient of viscosity of this lip...

Coilia mystus is the most important harvested fish species in China; it inhabits quite different water environments during the different life history stages. Populations of C. mystus have dropped sharply due to overharvesting and water pollution. We developed eight microsatellite loci in C. mystus for conservation genetics studies. These new markers were tested in 20 individuals from the Min Ri...

The present investigation was carried out seasonally from October 2008 to September 2010, to study the impact of helminth parasites of catfishes of Lucknow. The fish fauna viz., Clarias batrachus, Heteropneustes fossilis, Wallago attu, Mystus vittatus and Rita rita were carried trematode, cestode, nematode and acanthocephalan parasites communities singly or mixed. The collected fish species inc...

The thyroid gland of Mystus vittatus was unencapsulated, composed of follicles scattered mainly around the ventral aorta in the sub pharyngeal region. Each follicle provided with agranular eosinophilic colloid materials in the central lumen was encircled by a single layer of epithelial cells. The follicular cells varied according to the secretary activity in harmony with the reproductive cycle....
