Abstract

The biodiversity of freshwater fish is important to study because there is data and information that remain undiscovered. The waters of Sumatra, especially West Sumatra, are areas with high freshwater fish diversity but have limited information. Providing information and genetic data has become one of the important things to conduct. DNA barcoding and eDNA metabarcoding have become molecular methods for identifying species and providing information about the presence of species in a region. A study using DNA barcoding and eDNA metabarcoding was conducted on freshwater fish in several locations in West Sumatra. Isolation and amplification of DNA were performed directly on individual samples and sequenced using conventional methods (Sanger sequencing) to generate DNA barcodes. Water samples were collected (2 liters) at each location using a sterile bottle. The water samples were filtrated, isolated, and amplified using universal primer and sequenced with next-generation sequencing techniques. The study successfully collected 25 species belonging to 14 genera, 2 families, and 1 order. A total of 134 sequences from West Sumatra with a length of 648-670 bp were analyzed. All DNA barcodes were submitted to the BOLD System and GenBank, NCBI. The mean Kimura two-parameter model (K2P) genetic distances within species, genera, families, and orders were 0.7%, 8.3%, 15.8%, and 21.3%, respectively. The eDNA metabarcoding technique has successfully detected three native fish species in the waters of West Sumatra (Barbonymus schwanefeldii, Mystacoleucus padangensis, and Rasbora jacobsoni). The availability of fish DNA barcodes in reference databases is crucial for the success of identification using eDNA metabarcoding. Combining identification using conventional methods and eDNA metabarcoding can provide more reliable results and become a reference for future freshwater monitoring.

Abstract

Frigate tuna (Auxis thazard) is a pelagic and neritic fish resource that has economic value. Fish diet is one of the important information in monitoring the sustainability of fisheries resources in the future. This study aims to determine the composition of food and determine the Index of Preponderance of frigate tuna caught by fishermen in West Sumatra waters. The method used in this study was random sampling by taking 98 samples of frigate tuna obtained from the catch of fishermen in West Sumatra waters landed at the Air Bangis Fish Landing Center, West Pasaman Regency, and Gaung Fish Auction Site, Padang. The analysis used the Index of Preponderance to determine the main food, additional food, and complementary food. The results showed the composition of food in the stomach of frigate tuna consisted of 3 groups of organisms, namely zooplankton (61.04%), phytoplankton (31.82%), and pisces (7.13%). The main food of frigate tuna is zooplankton (62.10%), while the additional food are phytoplankton (27.73%), and pisces (10.16%). The availability of frigate tuna food in West Sumatra waters supports the sustainability of the frigate tuna population in these waters.

Abstract

The frigate tuna (Auxis thazard) is important to the fishing industry in West Sumatra. The increasing demand for frigate tuna causes this fish to continue to be exploited. Exploitation carried out continuously can reduce frigate tuna production, so research needs to be done. The research was conducted to: (1) Know the growth pattern and factor condition of frigate tuna (A. thazard) in West Sumatra waters; (2) Know the reproductive biology of frigate tuna (A. thazard). Samples were collected from fishermen's catch in the waters of West Sumatra. Random sampling was conducted, and samples were measured for length and weight, followed by dissection to ascertain sex ratio, gonadal maturity level, gonadal maturity index, and fecundity. The results indicated that the fish's length ranged from 350 to 475 mm, with an average of 401.48 mm, and their weight ranged from 408 to 1,339 grams, with an average of 755.8 grams. The growth pattern is identified as positive allometric (b>3), indicating that weight gain surpasses length increases. The condition factor is in stable condition with an average of 1.24. The sex ratio is in an unbalanced condition with a ratio of males and females of 0.9: 1. The level of gonad maturity obtained is GML III and GML IV. The gonad maturity index of male fish ranged from 1.71 to 3.04 and female fish from 1.28 to 2.50. Estimated fecundity ranged from 261,468 to 2,775,590 grains. Based on several factors included in this study, the reproductive biology of frigate tuna in the waters of West Sumatra is favorable.
