this study was accomplished to investigate the effect of artemia urmiana nauplii enriched with pediococcus acidilactici as probiotic on growth performance and survival rate of great sturgeon, huso huso.  artemia nauplii were enriched with p. acidilactici at a final concentration of 1010 cfu ml-1 in three time dependent treatments as 3 h (t3), 6 h (t6), 9 h (t9), and one non-enriched artemia as ...

this study was performed to compare the biomar nutritional diet, shrimp, bloodworms on growth parameters, survival and blood parameter of juvenile aquarium joel (hemichromis bimaculatus). the experiment treatments consisted of blood worms, dried shrimp and control treatment that were biomar food. daily feeding was performed 4 times in a day to satiation and breeding fish took place over 8 weeks...

The aim of this study was to predict crop growth of year-round cut chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) based on an empirical model of potential crop growth rate as a function of daily incident photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, MJ m-2 d-1), using generalized estimated parameters of the expolinear growth equation. For development of the model, chrysanthemum crops were grown in...

background  short stature is a manifestation of a wide variety of conditions that some of which may be amenable to timely treatment and a suboptimal growth rate may be an early marker pointing to the cause of growth retardation. this study was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic utility of growth rate in differential diagnosis of children with short stature. materials and methods all children ...

in order to estimate responses of growth rate and growth hormone of clarias gariepinus to stocking density, fish (initial weight 30.71 ± 0.89 g) were stocked in 120-l tanks at densities of 35, 65, 95, and 125 kg/m3 for 60 days. on day 30 and 60, the fish growth rates were measured, pituitary growth hormone (gh) mrna levels and serum gh concentrations were examined by real-time qpcr and elisa te...

A feeding trial was conducted for sixty days to determine the effect of dietary Aloe vera on parameters related to growth rate, health status and hematological parameters of shirbot (Tor grypus). Two hundred and forty fish weighing 50-60 g were randomly subjected to four different treatments, including a control, T1 (0.1% of A. vera), T2 (0.2%) and T3 (0.5%) in triplicate. Hematological paramet...

A feeding trial was conducted for sixty continuouse days to determine the effect of dietary Aloe vera on parameters related to growth rate, health status and hematological parameters of shirbot (Barbus grypus). Two hundred and forty fish weighing 50-60 g were randomly subjected to four different treatment, including control, T1 (0.1% of Aloe vera), T2 (0.2%) and T3 (0.5%) in triplicate. Hematol...

A study was conducted to determine the effects of water temperature and rations size on growth performance, feed utilization and carcass biochemical composition of juvenile Benni. Six treatments representing a combination of two water temperature (24 and 28 °C) and three feeding rations (1%, 3% and 5%) were tested with three replicates. Each replicate was stocked with 12 fish (30.66±0.81 g aver...
