despite two decades of artificial spawning of wild carp (cyprinus carpio) to rehabilitate natural populations in the southeastern caspian sea, there are still no appropriate physiological criteria for selecting competent brooders during induced spawning. to this end, the plasma concentrations of vitellogenin (vtg), phosphorus (p) and calcium (ca) were measured during ovarian development, as pot...

Koi herpesvirus (KHV) infection is associated with high mortalities in both common carp (Cyprinus carpio carpio) and koi carp (Cyprinus carpio koi) worldwide. Although acute infection has been reported in both domestic and wild common carp, the status of KHV latent infection is largely unknown in wild common carp. To investigate whether KHV latency is present in wild common carp, the distributi...

Yeganeh S., Shabanpour B., Hosseini H., Imanpour M.R., Shabani A. (2012): Comparison of farmed and wild common carp (Cyprinus carpio): Seasonal variations in chemical composition and fatty acid profile. Czech J. Food Sci., 30: 503–511. Chemical composition and fatty acid profile of fillets from farmed and wild common carp were assessed in the course of four seasons. Ten wild and ten0 farmed fis...

the populations of wild carp (cyprinus carpio carpio), as a commercially valuable species in the southeast iranian waters of the caspian sea, have been severely declined during last three decades, but there is no comprehensive research available on the biology of this species in this area. the age, growth and reproductive aspects of samples collected during 2009-2010 fishing season were measure...

The Caspian Sea and its basin (e.g. Anzali wetland) is one of the natural habitats of wild common carp Cyprinus carpio. In this study the genetic structure of this species. In the south-west of Caspian Sea (the Anzali wetland) was investigated using PCR-RFLP analysis of D-loop region. Two hundred of mature fish were collected from 5 stations (40 individuals from each station) including Siahkesh...

Outbreaks of koi sleepy disease (KSD) caused by carp edema virus (CEV) may seriously affect populations of farmed common carp, one of the most important fish species for global food production. The present study shows further evidence for the involvement of CEV in outbreaks of KSD among carp and koi populations: in a series of infection experiments, CEV from two different genogroups could be tr...

Thelohanellus infection of the scales of the European wild carp Cyprinus carp10 carplo L 1s reported for the first time in Europe Comparative morphological and histological f i nd~ngs are descnbed Plasmodia and spores found In the fins of cultured common carp fingerlings and those detected in the scales of 2to >4-yr-old European wild carp belong to the same species The morphological chardcteris...

Infections of common carp Cyprinus carpio and koi, its coloured morphotypes, with the cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) can induce severe clinical signs and increased mortality in affected stocks. This may significantly challenge the economic basis of carp farming in Central Europe. To limit virus spread in carp farms, effective disinfection measures for ponds stocked with infected populations ar...
