malathion is one of the most commonly used pesticides in agriculture. this study was aimed to investigate the acute toxicity of malathion as an aquatic pollutant on the behavior and hematological indices in indian carp ( cirrhinus mrigala ). a static experiment was conducted and 1, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hrs lc 50 values of malathion for the test fish were estimated as 14.55 mg/l, 12.48 mg/l, 11.56 ...

Three species of Indian major carp (Labeo rohita,Catla catla,Cirrhinus mrigala) were collected from local fish market and fishing sites of river Brahmaputra for determining the nutritional value,seasonal variation of proximate composition and vitamin A content of these fishes.Results obtained show that there is no much significant seasonal variations in body composition of Indian major carp tho...

Ten years ago, very little was known about the genetics of most of the cyprinid species of interest to aquaculture in Asia, for example the Chinese carps, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) and grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella); Indian major carps, catla (Catla catla), rohu (Labeo rohita) and mrigal (Cirrhinus cirrhosus); and the silver barb (Barbo...

A study was conducted to investigate the existing system of fry trade and different problems and prospects associated with this enterprise in Jessore district. A total of 82 hatchery operators and nursery owners were interviewed using a structured questionnaire. In the study period 4211.5 kg hatchling were produced in 85 hatcheries in this area of which 80% were reared in the same area. Average...

The aim of the study was to investigate the physical difference in biochemical characteristics of spermatological and seminal plasma and also ultrastructure of spermatozoa in six carp species, viz. catla, Catla catla, rohu, Labeo rohita, kalbasu, Labeo calbasu, mrigal, Cirrhinus mrigala, silver carp, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella. Semen yield from different...

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...

DAS, B. K., S. C. MUKHERJEE: A histopathological study of carp (Labeo rohita) exposed to hexachlorocyclohexane. Vet. arhiv 70, 169-180, 2000. ABSTRACT Indian major carp (Labeo rohita) were exposed to 1/10 and 1/5 sub-lethal doses of hexachlorocyclohexane during a 45-day trial period. Fish were sacrificed at the end of the trial period to study light microscopic changes associated with toxicity....

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 ...

A growth study was conducted to determine the dietary threonine requirement of juveniles of the Indian major carp (Cirrhinus mrigala) known as “mrigal”. Diets containing casein and gelatin as sources of intact proteins were supplemented with crystalline amino acids to obtain a crude protein content of 40%. Six diets with different levels of threonine (1.0, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7, 1.9 and 2.1%) were fed ...
