The past decade have seen a resurgence of interests in research relating to this public health issue, however there is still a lot to be done. Social Model: Not many models have been explored in Western Siberia to deal with the opisthorchiasis epidemic when compared to the different models that have been used for other regions affected by similar disease. Life Cycle: The complex life cycle of Opisthorchis felineus prevalent among the aboriginal population of the Western Siberian because of their habit of eating raw or undercooked fresh has humans and other feline species as definitive host and is really Diagnosis and Treatment: Diagnosis involve the use of stool microscopy, other methods such as mAb ELISA, LAMP and so on water fish (Cyprinidae) which are intermediate host of the parasite.

Box 81651-80100, Mombasa, Kenya 2Pwani University, P.O Box 195-80108, Kilifi County, Kenya Received: 09.03.2021 / Accepted: 23.03.2021 / Published online: 31.03.2021 Abstract: The Baringo barb Labeobarbus intermsdius is one of the least studied native fish species in Lake Baringo, a shallow freshwater lake located in the eastern arm of the Rift Valley, Kenya. This study evaluated aspects of its biology to provide baseline scientific information on the species. Fish were sampled using gillnets and their lengths (to the nearest 0.1 cm) and weight (to the nearest 0.1 g) measured on a meter board and electronic balance respectively. Parameters of the length-weight relationship were obtained by fitting the power equation; W=a × Lb to length and weight data. Each fish was dissected to remove the stomach for stomach content analysis. Gonads examined gonads for sexing and determination of maturity stage. Fish size in a total of 280 individual sampled during the study ranged from 6.0 to 36.0 cm total length and 4.3 to 1314 g total weight. The b value of the length-weight relationship was 3.1177 indicate positive allometric growth. Of 254 sexed individuals 107 were males and 147 were female giving a ratio of male to female to be 1:1.38 which was significantly different from the expected 1:1 sex ratio (chi-square test, p<0.05).

  • Resolving Cypriniformes Relationships Using an Anchored Enrichment Approach Carla C
    Stout et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2016) 16:244 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0819-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Resolving Cypriniformes relationships using an anchored enrichment approach Carla C. Stout1*†, Milton Tan1†, Alan R. Lemmon2, Emily Moriarty Lemmon3 and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Abstract Background: Cypriniformes (minnows, carps, loaches, and suckers) is the largest group of freshwater fishes in the world (~4300 described species). Despite much attention, previous attempts to elucidate relationships using molecular and morphological characters have been incongruent. In this study we present the first phylogenomic analysis using anchored hybrid enrichment for 172 taxa to represent the order (plus three out-group taxa), which is the largest dataset for the order to date (219 loci, 315,288 bp, average locus length of 1011 bp). Results: Concatenation analysis establishes a robust tree with 97 % of nodes at 100 % bootstrap support. Species tree analysis was highly congruent with the concatenation analysis with only two major differences: monophyly of Cobitoidei and placement of Danionidae. Conclusions: Most major clades obtained in prior molecular studies were validated as monophyletic, and we provide robust resolution for the relationships among these clades for the first time. These relationships can be used as a framework for addressing a variety of evolutionary questions (e.g. phylogeography, polyploidization, diversification, trait evolution, comparative genomics) for which Cypriniformes is ideally suited.

Received 5 November, 2017; Accepted 2 February, 2018 Morphometric relationships of African big barb, Labeobarbus intermedius (Rüppell, 1836) (Pisces: Cyprinidae) in Lake Koka, Ethiopia was studied based on the total number of 266 adult fish samples collected in April-May and July-August 2011. Fish ranging from 23.3 to 49.0 cm in total length (35±4.1 cm) and from 95.4 to 1200 g in total weight (434.4±206.5 g) were randomly sampled. Of these, 55.6% (n=148) were males and 44.4% (n=118) were females. The length-weight relationship of the males, females and combined fish were curvilinear and statistically significant (P< 0.01). L. intermedius in Lake Koka has positive allometric growth pattern, which was statistically significant (p< 0.01). Females were more allometric in their growth pattern, but statistically not significant (P>0.01). Length-length relationships between total length (TL) and fork length (FL), fork length (FL) and standard length (SL), TL and SL were linear and statistically significant (P<0.01).

    Academic Journal of Nutrition 6 (2): 28-33, 2017 ISSN 2309-8902 © IDOSI Publications, 2017 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.ajn.2017.28.33 Food and Feeding Habits of the African Big Barb Labeobarbus intermedius (Rüppell, 1836) in Ethiopian Water Bodies: A Review Agumassie Tesfahun and Mathewos Temesgen Ambo University College of Natural and Computational Science, Department of Biology, Ethiopia Abstract: The food and feeding habits of the African big barb Labeobarbus intermedius (Rüpell, 1836) was reviewed in Ethiopian water bodies systems. Data sources were collected from June, 2017 through November, 2017 from different sources of information. The results from difference study indicated that macrophytes, detritus, insects and phytoplankton are the most important food items in the diet of L. intermedius, whereas the contributions of zooplankton, fish scales and ostracods are relatively low in the diet. Macrophytes and detritus are the important food items reported in the diet of fish during the wet months, whereas phytoplankton and zooplankton are the dominant food items in dry season. The fish showed different ontogenetic shift in different Ethiopian water bodies as it increases in size, except in Lake Tana, where no visible ontogenetic dietary shift was reported. Based on the review, L.intermedius is omnivorous and the dietary pattern of L.intermedius in Ethiopian water bodies shifts with prey availability, season, habitat difference and size of the fish, aspects that might warrant further study in view of aquaculture applications as well as climate change. Key words: Ethiopia Feeding Habits L. intermedius Ontogenetic Diet Shift INTRODUCTION Persson and Crowder [9] the major factors that influence diet composition of L.

The aims of this study are to access sexual dimorphism, the size at first maturity, reproductive potency, and spawning season. Fish sampling was conducted in three zones, 2 stations in each zone by using gill net, cast net, and electro fishing. The caught fishes were preserve in formalin and they were observed in laboratory. The results showed that this fish has sexual dimorphism, the size at first maturity of males 150-182 mm and females and 175-202 mm. The fecundity varied from 2,760 to 50,085 eggs with mean 17,347 eggs. The relationships between fecundity and body length, and fecundity and body weight were linear, positive and significant. The gonad maturity is consisted of five stages. The highest mean Gonado Somatic Index (GSI) of female was found in the upper zone which was followed by the lower zone, i.e.

Hurtado Co-Chair of Committee, Mariana Mateos Committee Member, James B. Woolley Head of Department, David Caldwell December 2018 Major Subject: Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences Copyright 2018 Violet M’mbone Ndeda ABSTRACT The genus ‘Barbus’ belongs to a speciose taxonomically complex and heterogeneous assemblage of cyprinid fish. In Lake Victoria drainage basin in Kenya, ten endemic species of ‘Barbus’ are reported, which play a significant role in food security and socio-economic development of the local community. Although these species are identified using morphological characters, confusion may occur when trying to distinguish morphologically similar species. Recent molecular work in the region has suggested presence of introgression within certain ‘Barbus’ species further complicating the taxonomy and species identification in the group. In this study, we obtained cytochrome b and GH-intron 2 gene sequences of nine ‘Barbus’ species sampled in the Lake Victoria drainage basin in Kenya. We conducted Maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses to establish their evolutionary relationships in relation to other ‘Barbus’. The results showed distinct lineages of ‘Barbus’ species not subjected to introgression/hybridization. Herein, we present new sequences of cytochrome b and GH DNA for small African ‘Barbus’.

  • Cyprinids in Estonian Small Lakes: Comparison Between Main Water Basins
    Cyprinids in Estonian Small Lakes: Comparison between Main Water Basins Anu Palm (1) amd Teet Krause (1), Ain Järvalt(1), Maidu Silm (1) (1) Estonian University for Life Sciences, Centre for Limnology at PKI, Tartu, Estonia Abstract In last 16 years, we sampled slightly over a hundred small lakes in Estonia with Nordic type of multimesh gillnets for cyprinids. We captured 15 cyprinid species out of 18 considered as natural of origin in Estonian inland waters. Rheophilic riffle minnow (Alburnoides bipunctatus) and minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) in addition to stocked carp (Cyprinus carpio) never occurred in samples, whereas vimba bream (Vimba vimba) and piscivorous asp (Aspius aspius) occurred twice. Extremely rare in samples were also chub (Leuciscus cephalus), gudgeon (Gobio gobio), dace (L. leuciscus), and ide (L. idus). The gibel carp (Carassius gibelio), crussian carp (Carassius carassius), and tench (Tinca tinca) were caught mostly in coastal and closed lakes. Open lakes with in- and outlet were preferred by bream (Abramis brama), bleak (Alburnus alburnus), and white bream (Blicca bjoerkna). Numbers of cyprinid species co-increased with the numbers of individuals in a sample both either water basins or lake types along the water course were compared; coastal lakes were the only exception. We consider the ratio numbers of cyprinid individuals per cyprinid species to indicate directly the pressure of piscivory and hence indirectly the quality of lake water. Keywords: Cyprinidae, lake type, multimesh gill net, water quality Introduction The fish distribution of Northern Europe is described as a outcome of postglacial dispersal (Mooi, Gill, 2002) in the long-lasting processes of retreat southwards by ice formation and recolonization of ice- free areas (Paaver, Lõugas, 2003).
