As an important freshwater species with economic and ecological benefits, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) exhibits poor tolerance to hypoxia. Glucose transporters (GLUTs) are core membrane proteins that transport glucose tissues regulate essential life activities. Its expression is regulated by HIF-1α cells in hypoxic conditions maintain energy demand through GLUTs inducing enhanced t...

Field studies to detect environmental DNA (eDNA) can be undertaken to infer the presence of a rare or cryptic species in a water body. These studies are implemented by collecting water samples from the water body, processing those samples to isolate genetic material contained in the water sample, and using a laboratory assay to find a species-specific genetic marker within a sample of the genet...

Based upon morphological characters, Silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis (or Aristichthys nobilis) have been classified into either the same genus or two distinct genera. Consequently, the taxonomic relationship of the two species at the generic level remains equivocal. This issue is addressed by sequencing complete mitochondrial genomes of H. mol...

fish larvae experience major cellular and biochemical changes during their early life stages.the aim of the present study was to evaluate alterations in the antioxidant status and values oflipid peroxidation and vitamin c content during the different life developmental stages ofhypophthalmichthys molitrix. eggs and larvae were sampled at fertilization, organogenesis,eyed egg, hatch, active feed...

the aim of this study was to determine the concentration of copper and hazard quotient (hq) in muscle of the carp aquaculture fishes (common carp) (cyprinus carpio), grass carp (ctenopharyngodon idella), big head carp (aristichthys nobilis) and silver carp (hypophthalmichthys molitrix)] in khuzestan province. 108 pieces farmed fish sampled was prepared from the azadegan warm water fish culture ...

Literature review of reports concerning the parasitic fauna floating cage fishes in Iraq till end 2021 showed that a total 57 parasite species are so far known from three fish investigated for infections throughout country. The included 15 ciliophorans, myxozoans, two trematodes, 28 monogeneans, five cestodes, one nematode, acanthocephalan and crustaceans. common carp Cyprinus carpio was infect...

Management of silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix has become a growing concern for multiple state and federal entities. Commercial fishing may have the greatest potential to control silver carp. However, for a management action to be successful, the level of exploitation required to reduce silver carp populations must be quantified. Therefore, silver carp were collected from Midwestern U.S....
