Today this fish has significant stocks in Anzali wetland bu...

In 5 experunents, conlmon carp fry Cyprinus carpio with Dactylogyrus vastator infection of varying severity, as well as parasite-free fry, were placed into an environment of decreasing oxygen content. The correlation between the time of death and helminth infestation of the gills was studied. The experiments demonstrated that in a medium of decreased oxygen content the carp with the heaviest he...

In this study, two halophilic bacterial strains isolated from saline habitats in Argentina grew in the presence of gas oil. They were identified as Halomonas spp. and Nesterenkonia sp. by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Chemotaxis towards gas oil was observed in Halomonas spp. by using swimming assays.
