This study was carried out to investigate the genetic diversity and population structure of 90 specimens of Oxynoemacheilus argyrogramma collected from Sepidbarg, Gamasiab and Ghaleji rivers, in the west of Iran. Analyses using three microsatellite loci indicated that the average number of alleles in the population was 12, which was well above the reported values for freshwater fishes. The expe...

This study provides new data on chromosomal characteristics and DNA barcoding of three endemic loaches of Iran: spiny southern loach Cobitis linea (Heckel, 1847), Persian stream loach Oxynoemacheilus persa (Heckel, 1848) and Tongiorgi stream loach Oxynoemacheilus tongiorgii (Nalbant & Bianco, 1998). The chromosomes of these fishes were investigated by examining metaphase chromosome spreads obta...

This study was carried out to determine the fish fauna of Kuzgun Dam Lake dranaige. Eight (Barbus lacerta, Capoeta damascina, Alburnus sellal, Alburnoides velioglui, Squalius semae, Oxynoemacheilus araxensis, O. bergianus and Salmo euphrataeus) species belonging 4 families (Cyprinidae, Leuciscidae, Nemachelidae Salmonidae) were determined.

The Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) have been detected in several species of animals from different countries worldwide, including in South America. The host range of these viruses has increased in recent years; thus, in order to contribute to the knowledge in this topic we analyzed samples from captivity animals from Uruguay. We found the presence of PBVs in four species of animals, Panthera leo, Pant...

The chromosomal banding properties of Oxynoemacheilus simavicus (Balık & Bănărescu, 1978) were revealed out by C-banding and silver staining. Constitutive heterochromatin regions determined on the pericentromeres most chromosomes C-banding. Otherwise, nucleolus organizer (NORs) observed short (p) arms one middle-sized submetacentric (sm) chromosome pair Also, Ag-NOR size number polymorphism...
