Fish are often infected with different blood protozoa of the genera Babesiosoma, Trypanosoma, and Hemogrigarina. These parasites match which infect mammals. A total 120 samples from five fish species (Barbus grypus, Barbus sharpyi, Liza abu, Carasobarbus luteus, Aspius vorax) were collected Khazar River in Ninevah Governorate, Iraq at weekly intervals during period April 2022 to October for det...

Shirbot (Barbus grypus) as a species with high potential for aquaculture development recently propagated artificially in South Iran Aquaculture Research Center to extend the species diversity in polyculture system. To provide an effective economic diet for this species 9 experimental diets containing three crude protein levels (250, 300, and 350 g kg -1 ) and three metabolizable energy levels (...

for intensive rearing of fish with minimal losses, it is necessary to be aware of health status of fish. blood variables are useful criteria for showing physiological disturbances in intensively farmed fishes and can provide important information for diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. the aim of the present study was to show hematological parameters in haematological evaluation is gradually b...

the aim of this investigation was to study macroscopic and microscopic structures of ovaries in barbus grypus of karoon river and their changes during annual maturation cycle. for this purpose, 120 adult  b.grypus with a mean weight of 835.0 to 1012.0 g, were caught from karoon river and transferred alive to the laboratory. after biometrical studies, the weights and morphological appearances of...

the native fishes of iran are imp ortant, since the stock of population are declining and the species of some fishes are in danger , because of industrialization, pollution, dryness, purposeful or accidental introduction of exotic species. the inland water species of iran are import ant, since they have not been yet completely identified. in order to conduct taxonomic revision and survey of pop...
