The Caspian Kutum, Rutilus Kutum (Kamensky 1901) specimens were sampled by purse seine in the northern Iranian coast of the Caspian Sea at four locations:  Feridoonkenar Shahed, Mahmoudabad Khoram, Lariim Azadi fishing coop, and the Shiroud River in Ramsar city. “Back-calculation” is a retrospective method of estimating the characteristics of growth of fish in terms of length and rate of growth...

kutum is considered as one of the anadramous species of the caspian sea. due to continuous population decline of the fish since 1975, iranian fisheries organization started to restock this species. nowadays, there is growing concern over the effects of restocking on natural populations. for this purpose, population structure and genetic variation of this species in the iranian coastline of casp...

background: marine products, especially fish, play an increasingly significant role in human diets and health. this research evaluated the concentrations of cadmium, lead, chromium, and nickel in liver and muscle tissues of rutilus frisii kutum along the caspian sea coasts of northern iran. methods: thirty samples of fishes were taken from five stations (astara, rezvanshahr, anazali, ramsar, an...

in order to identify the sex marker in mahisefied, rutilus frisii kutum, samples from 5 male and 5 female fish were collected from the south caspian sea. polymerase chain reaction random amplified polymorphic dna (pcr-rapd) was performed using 124 primer sets. all bands were numbered using 1 and 0 scores corresponding to the presence or absence of bands, respectively and data were analyzed usin...

in this study, the diversity and distribution of economical bony fishes in less-than-ten-meter depths, cpue and population features such as total length, weight and age were investigated in the southern part of the caspian sea in 1385-6. sampling was done in five regions: amir abad, larim, izdeh, kheyroud, and nashtarood with gilnet in mesh sizes of 26, 33, 40, 60, 100, and 150 mm. in total, 22...

bacteriocins are proteinaceous antibacterial compounds that exhibit bactericidal activity against species closely related to the producer strain. the aim of this research was to investigate the production of bacteriocin by bacillus spp. isolated from intestinal bacterial flora of the caspian frisian roach (rutilus frisii kutum). a bacteriocin produced by the bacterium bacillus cereus strain rf ...
