Genetic diversity was assayed at 11 microsatellite loci of silver pomfret captured at 5 sites in 2010 to detect population genetic structure of Pampus argenteus, a commercial important species in Persian Gulf and Oman Sea. Results showed 131 alleles over all loci examined. Mean observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.405 to 0.880 respectively. Pairwise F (0.040) and R (0.129) value...

The Pb, Hg and As content of the muscle, gill and liver of marin organisms Otolithes rubber, Pampus argenteus, Parastromateus niger, Scomberomorus commerson, Onchorynchus mykiss were measured. Analysis of lead and arsenic was carried out by anodic stripping voltammetry method. Hg analysis was done spectrophotometrically. It was found that mercury concentration reaches to maximum in the gill of ...

Silver pomfret, Pampus argenteus is an economically important seafood species. The fishery resource of pomfret in Indian waters shows a dwindling catch since the last few years and the pomfrets caught were mostly undersized which calls for immediate attempts for management of resources. An accurate definition of population structure is important for management of this species. The genetic stock...

The subfamily Anoplophilinae (Rhaphidophopridae) is recorded from Russia for the first time. Alpinanoplophilus kurilensis Storozhenko, sp. nov. is described from Kunashir Island. The holotype of the new species is deposited in the Zoological Institute of Russian Academy of Science (St. Petersburg, Russia). A revised key to the species of the genus Alpinanoplophilus Ishikawa, 1993 is provided.

The objective of the present study was to investigate trace metal levels of different varieties of fresh water fish using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrophotometer after microwave digestion (MD-ICPMS). Fish samples were collected from the outlets of twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad. The trace metal content in different varieties of analyzed fish were ranged from 0.24 to 1.68 mg...

Pampus argenteus is an economically important fish that is often erroneously identified as Pampus echinogaster. No population genetic analyses have been performed on the true P. argenteus species. Here, the mitochondrial control region (CR) was used to evaluate the population genetics and elaborate the historical demography of the Silver pomfret collected from six geographical locations in Chin...

parasitic infection of pampus argenteus was examined from northwest of qeshm island. a total of 62 specimens were caught in summer 2008 and winter 2009 by bottom trawl and the specimens were selected randomly in different length classes and immediately deep frozen. all samples were transferred to laboratory, after measuring fish weight and length, parasitological survey implemented by stereo an...
