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...

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...

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 (...

the effects of weight and length of barbus grypus broodstock on fingerlings reproductive characteristics and growth were investigated. we chose three female treatments  including weight and length groups (1) 2212.5±479g,  62.68±6.7cm, (2) 4518±780g,  79.12±4.36cm  and (3) 7712.5±1171g, 92.62±3.13cm. the same male broodstock were used for all the treatments with the weight and length size of 140...
