The present communication describes three new species of myxosporeans (Myxozoa: Myxosporea: Bivalvulida), Myxobilatus odontamblyopusi sp. n., Myxobolus catmrigalae sp. n. and M. buccoroofus sp. n. from Odontamblyopus rubicundus (HamiltonBuchanan), Catla-Mrigal hybrid carp [male parent fish Catla catla (Hamilton-Buchanan) × female parent fish Cirrhinus mrigala (Hamilton-Buchanan)] and Labeo bata...

as new pathogenic strains are emerging and threatening aquaculture development, myxosporeans (myxozoa) are receiving much attention in recent years. myxosporean taxonomy is traditionally based on morphology of the myxospore stage. molecular data on indian myxosporeans are rare. in this report, the 18s rrna gene sequence of myxobolus cuttacki infecting gill lamellae of minor carp labeo bata (ham...

A sixty-day study was carried out to compare the growth of hybrid between Labeo rohita (rohu) and bata (bata) with one parental species, rohu. The fertilization hatching rates found be lower in than those After three days spawns were reared earthen nursery ponds for sixty days. weight first ten and, length following fifty obtained compared rohu significant difference observed. showed faster rat...

Bata (Labeo bata), an indigenous, freshwater minor carp, is a great delicacy in Bangladesh. In its natural fishery, bata contributes significantly to the health and nutritional security of large section fisher communities However, it not popular farmed fish because small size slow growth rate. The induction triploidy, aimed at providing faster larger body size, could be appropriate for L. enhan...

the disposition and cellular organization of the endocrine pancreas were studied in three species of freshwater teleosts viz., labeo bata (hamilton, 1822), sperata aor (hamilton, 1822) and chitala chitala (hamilton, 1822) using histological techniques. in l. bata, the endocrine pancreas tissues were mainly distributed in the adipose tissue among the intestinal coils and adjacent to extrahepatic...

Fermented mixtures containing fish-offal meal (FOM) and mulberry leaf meal (MLM) were used as protein supplement to partially replace fish meal (FM) in the formulation of diets for the Indian minor carp Labeo bata. The diets included a reference diet (20 % FM), three diets of fermented mixture of FOM and MLM (T2–T4) replacing 50 to 75 % of FM. Formulation of diet with 30 % FOM, 24 % MLM and 5 ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of stocking density on growth, production and profitability of farming Labeo bata fry in earthen rearing ponds for a period of 60 days. Labeo bata, fry (mean initial length, 3.42 ± 0.07cm and weight,  1.02 ± 0.06 g) were stocked at 750, 1000 and 1250 decimal-1 in treatment-1(T1), treatment-2 (T2) and treatment-3 (T3) respectively, each with two ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the gill filaments of Labeo bata in India parasitologically and to describe the new Myxozoa parasite species, Myxobolus leafa sp. nov., which was determined. METHODS Fish were collected alive from fish farms from Manipur (India). Sporogonic plasmodia were removed with sterile forceps and observed under phase contrast microscope. For permanent...
