The aim of the experiments was to evaluate the influence of human kisspeptin on LH secretion of Prussian carp (Carassius gibelio) females during ovarian recrudescence and spawning season. For the experiments, human kisspeptin KISS1 (0.1 mg kg(-1) of body weight--b.w.), GnRH analogue (Des Gly(10), D-Ala(6)) GnRH-A (20 µg kg(-1) b.w.) and dopamine antagonist (pimozide) (5 mg kg(-1) b.w.) were use...

Abstract In this study, the new occurrence of Carassius gibelio belonging to genus in Ulugöl Plateau Pond (Mesudiye-Ordu, Turkey) and Perşembe (Aybastı-Ordu, Middle Black Sea Region (Turkey) is reported. The distribution data Prussian carp was updated Turkey comparison previously known data. Presenting morphological samples collected from two different areas may contribute revealing current sta...

We studied the bioaccumulation of lead in selected tissues of Prussian carp Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782) during 12 and 24 months exposure to different doses of this metal in feed and the elimination of lead from tissues during the following 12-month depuration period. Lead concentration was determined using atomic absorption spectrometry method. The highest lead concentrations were observed ...

Purpose. Establishing modern parameters of Prussian carp population as a promising object for increasing commercial fish productivity the Kyiv Reservoir. Methodology. The work is based on field materials obtained during period 2019-2021 Data collection and processing was carried out in accordance with generally accepted methods. Ichthyological material collected from catches survey gill nets me...

One of the most intriguing defence strategies which aquatic organisms developed through evolution is multixenobiotic resistance (MXR). The key mediators of MXR activity are ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transport proteins. They provide resistance of aquatic organisms by binding xenobiotics and extruding them from cells in an energy-dependent manner. Since Cyprinid fish species are common target in...

This study’s objective was to explore some of the annual Prussian carp’s (Carassius gibelio) biological characteristics (sex ratio, length–weight and gonado somatic index - GSI) in Kopački Rit Nature Park Croatia. The carp is an invasive fish species originated from Asia, which became widely distributed throughout Europe believed be responsible for a decline number indigenous fish, invertebrate...

Abstract Stress inevitably occurs during any fish handling and manipulation in culturing, research, or clinical examination situations that require capture removal of from water. Different stress factors can affect the changes relative numbers function cells immune system. Catching, transportation over-crowding caused stress-induced total number leukocytes thrombocytes, as well leukocyte formul...

We examined 11 Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch), from the upper Yellow River running through Inner Mongolia (Wuhai City) to record myxosporean species. Between 6 and 15 elongated cysts of Henneguya doneci were located at the basal part of the gill filaments of 3 carp (27.3%); no more myxosporean plasmodia were found in other organs. Although the morphology and morphometric values of the...
