ZooKeys 1055: 135–148. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1055.70117 Abstract To investigate the genetic effects on the population of Coreius guichenoti of dam constructions in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, we analyzed the genetic diversity and population structure of 12 popula- tions collected in 2009 and 2019 using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control regions. There was no significant difference in genetic diversity between 2009 and 2019P ( > 0.05), but the population structure tended to become stronger. Genetic differentiation (FST) among five populations (LX, BB, YB, SF and JA) collected in 2009 was not significant P( > 0.05). However, some populations collected in 2019 were significantly differentiated (P < 0.05), indicating that the population structure has undergone change.

Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were detected as the predominant bacterial phyla in the gut of both diseased and healthy fish. The abundance of Proteobacteria differed significantly between the two groups of fish, mainly due to the overwhelming prevalence ofAeromonas in the diseased fish (81% ± 17%), while the genus was unevenly spread among the apparently healthy fish (33% ± 33%). The bacterial diversity in the intestine of diseased fish was markedly lower than in healthy fish. Analysis revealed the significant dissimilarity between the gut microbiota of diseased and healthy fish. The bacterial profiles in the gut were further characterized with the 28 phylotypes that were shared by the two groups. In diseased fish, two shared OTUs (OTU0001 and OTU0013) were closely related to Aeromonas salmonicida, their total proportion exceeding 70% of the sequences in diseased fish, while averaging 5.2% ± 4.6% in the healthy fish. This result suggested the presence of healthy carriers of pathogenic A. salmonicida among the farmed fish, and the gut appeared as a probable infection source for furunculosis in largemouth bronze gudgeon. Gut microbiota can play important roles in nutrition and health, and it may be considered as an integral com- ponent of the host1–4.

  • Regime Shift in Fish Assemblage Structure in the Yangtze River
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Regime shift in fsh assemblage structure in the Yangtze River following construction of the Three Received: 14 February 2018 Accepted: 31 December 2018 Gorges Dam Published: xx xx xxxx Xin Gao1, Masami Fujiwara 2, Kirk O. Winemiller2, Pengcheng Lin1, Mingzheng Li1 & Huanzhang Liu1 Dams have well-documented ecological impacts on downstream river segments; however, long-term impacts of river impoundment have rarely been investigated in upstream reaches. Using data from long-term standardized surveys, we analyzed temporal changes in fsh assemblages in the Yangtze River upstream of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) before, during and after its construction. Our analysis indicated fsh assemblage regime shifts in the two closer reaches in 2008, in accordance with the flling to 172.5 m in 2008; and in the other reach, farthest from the TGD, in 2011, indicating timing of the efects being related to distance. These shifts were evident in relative abundance of native fsh species rather than non-native species and have altered community structures and functional groups. Relative abundance of the lotic guilds declined in the two closer reaches, but increased in the farthest. Invertivores declined, but piscivores and opportunistic life-history strategists increased in all reaches. We conclude that construction of TGD had led to signifcant changes in species distributions infuenced by species functional traits. Our fndings emphasize the need for long-term monitoring of fsh assemblages before and after dam construction in order to understand ecological responses to hydrological changes for efective resource management in regulated rivers. Dams and reservoirs create economic and social benefts, but also impact riverine ecosystems in multiple ways1–7.

  • Culturing African Lungfish (Protopterus Sp) in Uganda: Prospects, Performance in Tanks, Potential Pathogens, and Toxicity of Salt and Formalin
    Culturing African Lungfish (Protopterus sp) in Uganda: Prospects, Performance in tanks, potential pathogens, and toxicity of salt and formalin by John Kiremerwa Walakira A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 14th, 2013 Keywords: African lungfish, aquaculture, exogenous feed, diseases, Salt and Formalin effects. Copyright 2013 by John Kiremerwa Walakira Approved by Joseph J. Molnar, Co-chair, Professor, Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology Jeffery S. Terhune, Co-chair, Associate Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Ronald P. Phelps, Associate Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Curtis M. Jolly, Professor, Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology Abstract Culturing species resilient to drought and stressful water quality conditions may be a significant part of the future of African aquaculture. Air breathing fishes potentially have a role in low-management culture systems for small farms because dissolved oxygen does not threaten the fish crop. The African lungfish (Protopterus sp) is advantageous because it is: an indigenous fish with good flesh quality, an air-breather, and a biocontrol agent against schistosome vector snails. Wild lungfish stocks are declining and national strategies to protect its natural population are lacking. Lungfish is highly valued as food, has certain nutraceutical benefits and supports livelihoods of many communities in Uganda. A variety of lungfish products on markets include fried pieces (54%), cured/smoked fish (28%), whole fresh gutted fish (10%) and soup (8%). Lungfish products are increasingly found alongside tilapia and Nile perch in rural and urban markets with cured products being exported to Kenya, DRC and Southern Sudan.

The correlation coefficient exhibited allometric (+,-) and isometric patterns in different types of fish species assessed in the present study. The fish were measured and calculated in correlation coefficient (r2). This present study envisages the new arena of formulation of mathematical modelling using fish model. Keywords: Length-weight, Freshwater Fish, correlation coefficient. 1. Introduction Length-weight relationships are very useful for Rao et al., 2014). LWR measurements can give fisheries research because they: (a) allow the information include stock composition, life span, conversion of growth-in-length equations to growth- mortality, growth and production of resources (Bolger in-weight for use in stock assessment models; (b) et al., 2007). Length and weight data analysis of a fish allow the estimation of biomass from length stock constitutes an important study since the growth observations; (c) allow an estimate of the condition of of the fish is continuous and is dependent on both the the fish; and (d) are useful for between region genetic and environmental factors.
