Aim: The study evaluates the effect on growth-and related economic benefits of rearing commercially important food fish, Amur carp, Cyprinus carpio haematopterus fry, in a cage culture system, influenced by stocking densities. Methodology: A 90 day long experiment was conducted seasonally opened ecologically sensitive floodplain wetland Brahmaputra riverine system at Jaluguti Beel. Floating cages 6×4×2 m with an effective volume 40 m-3 were used for fish. Experimental fish (n = 10800)...
The present study was undertaken to find out the incidence of Motile Aeromonas Septicaemia (MAS) in freshwater aquaculture system three districts viz. Nagaon, Morigaon and Sonitpur Assam. A total 293 number pools were screened for bacteriological mycotic studies. Out screened, 91 (31.05%) found be positive species, 131 (44.70%) A. invadans 55 (18.77%) S. parasitica. Among genera, hydrophila, veronii sobria detected with 51.64%, 21.97% 18.68% respectively. prevalence other species (7.69%)...
Aim: This study was conducted to evaluate the nutraceutical traits of Nymphaea nouchali herbal plant ingredients on growth performance, digestive enzymes and health status Labeo catla fingerlings owing abundance phytoconstituents. Methodology: Four isonitrogenous isocaloric diet with different inclusion levels leaf meal (NNLM) i.e., 0%, 20%, 30% 40% were formulated designated as T-0, T-I, T-II T-III treatment groups. A total 144 L. randomly distributed into experimental cisterns in...
A scale was constructed and standardized to measure the attitude of fish farmers towards scientific technologies demonstrated by “Assam Agribusiness Rural Transformation Project (APART)” from May 2021 September 2022 in APART-fishery operated districts Assam using ‘Scale Product Method’. Sixty-five (65) experts responded unbiased 50 statements related recommended farming project. On basis values Q values, only 28 were incorporated final scale. When administered a non-sample area, reliability...
Background: Striped snakehead (Channa striata) is an air breathing fish with immense popularity as food. Successful breeding operation of this requires proper broodstock management and development mass seed production technique. As spawning efficiency vary species traits, climatic conditions inducing agents for spawning, therefore, experiment on the efficacy two commercial GnRH based synthetic hormones viz., Gonopro-FH OVAFISH induced Channa striata in captivity was conducted under...
ABSTRACT The present study was carried out to isolate, identify, and characterize bacterial probiotic strain from the gut of Ctenopharyngodon idella (Grass carp) then its effect on growth, digestive enzymes immunity Labeo rohita fingerlings. A total 6 gram‐positive bacteria belonging genus Lactobacillus spp. (3), Bacillus (2) Staphylococcus (1), were identified biochemically. Based biochemical results, isolate GCLP4 selected for molecular confirmation BLAST analysis showed maximum homology...
The present study was undertaken to find the incidence of motile aeromonas septicemia (MAS) in freshwater aquaculture system three districts viz. Nagaon, Morigaon and Sonitpur Assam. A total 293 ponds varying size were surveyed during disease outbreak thirteen different diseases recorded. For first time, severity MAS Assam characterisation Aeromonads done through biochemical molecular studies. Aeromonas hydrophila, veronii sobria detected from diseased fishes, with A. hydrophila being most...
