Abstract

Some life history aspects including the reproductive characteristics and population dynamics of Senegalese tongue sole (Cynoglossus Senegalensis, Kaup, 1858), in the coastal waters of Ghana, were studied between August 2018 and July 2019. The length data of 606 specimens from the coastal waters of the Greater Accra region of Ghana was analyzed for size structure, growth pattern, condition factor, sex ratio and length at first maturity. The mean length varied significantly (p -value < 0 .001) with sex (31.3 ± 0.4 cm in males, 34.3 ± 0.4 cm in females). Condition factor (K) did not vary significantly (p -value = 0.054) with sex (i.e. 0.466 ± 0.002 in males, 0.476 ± 0.004 in females). The gonadosomatic index (GSI) varied significantly p -value < 0 .001) with sex (2.29 ± 0.30 in males), (3.94 ± 0.25 in females) and spawning peaks in April and July. Five maturity stages were recorded for both sexes with the size at first maturity for females and males estimated at 44.1 cm and 38.3 cm, respectively. In conclusion, the assessed fish species is likely to experience recruitment failure in the future, if appropriate management measures are not in place. Reduction in fishing efforts ad establishment of closed season is highly recommended.Keywords: Cynoglossus senegalensis; Ghana; Growth; Fisheries management; Life history.

Abstract

Osmoregulation is a physiological adjustment mechanism of fish to environmental conditions. Fish growth performance will reduce when a large amount of energy is redirected for the osmoregulation process. The purpose of this study was to determine the osmotic work level (OWL), osmoregulation pattern, condition factor (K), gonad maturity stages (GMS) and analyze the relationship between OWL with condition factor and GMS of tilapia collected from three floating net cages in Cengklik reservoir, Boyolali. Samples were collected during March - April 2022 followed by some allometric measurements and regression analyses. The OWL of tilapia at the three cages ranged from 4 - 10 mOsm/L H2O; they performed a hyperosmotic osmoregulation pattern. The condition factor of male and female tilapia were1,86±0,21 and 1,89±0,18. GMS of both male and female tilapia was dominated by GMS IV with a fecundity of 9408±2092.54 eggs. OWL did not reveal a significant effect on condition factors or on the GMS of tilapia (p>0.05). Pearson correlation test showed a weak relationship between OWL with condition factors (r = 0,204) and tilapia GMS (r = -0,001). Therefore, tilapia uses less energy in osmotic work to produce good growth performance because it has more energy for growth, as indicated by the high condition factor (K>1) and domination by fish with GMS IV level of mature gonads.Keywords: Condition Factor; Gonad Maturity; Fish Cages; Oreochromis niloticus; Osmoregulation

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) powder application on artificial feed on feed quality and feed conversion ratio for bileh fish (Rasbora sp.) fry. This research was carried out from September to October 2022 at UPR Mina Mandiri Gampong Lhok Seumot, Beutong District, Nagan Raya Regency. This study used bile fish seeds measuring 2 - 2.25 cm in length as test fish. The experimental design used was a non-factorial, Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments and three replications. The level of treatment applied in the feed formulation was control feed without fermented water hyacinth flour substitution (P0), 5% fermented hyacinth flour substitution in feed (P1), 10% fermented water hyacinth flour substitution in feed (P2), water hyacinth flour substitution fermented 15% in feed (P3). Feed is given at satiation three times a day. The test parameters observed were the quality of the feed produced and the feed conversion ratio of the seeds of bileh fish (Rasbora sp.). The results showed that applying water hyacinth flour (Eichhornia crassipes) on artificial feed gave the same response to the quality of the feed produced but had a significant effect on the feed conversion ratio for bileh fish. The lowest (best) feed conversion ratio was obtained in the P3 treatment.Keywords: feed quality; feed conversion ratio; hyacinth flour; Rasbora sp.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the antimicrobial effects of extracts prepared from orange (Citrus sinensis L.), lemon (C. limon L.) and pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) peels on motile Aeromonas species including Aeromonas hydrophila, A. caviae and A. allosaccharophila using disc diffusion and broth dilution techniques. In addition, the antibacterial effects of edible films and coatings prepared from orange, lemon and pomegranate peels on these bacteria were also investigated with the well agar diffusion technique in the current study. The essential oils (EOs) used in the study were obtained from the fruit peels by the distillation method. To test the antibacterial susceptibilities of essential oils, sterile discs were placed on the surface of the Petri dishes which were inoculated by bacteria. The dishes were incubated at 37 °C for 24 h. At the end of the incubation period, the zone diameters observed around the discs were measured. Florfenicol, flumequine and oxytetracycline were used as control antibiotics in the study. Antibacterial susceptibilities of fruit peels were also determined by broth dilution technique. The Minimum Inhibition Concentration (MIC) values of the fruit peels were found and the lowest concentration where turbidity which was not observed was accepted as MIC for that bacterial species. Carragenean, xanthan, starch and carop were used as matrix in the preparation of edible films and coatings. According to the results of the study, it was found that EO extract prepared from lemon peels was more effective on A. hydrophila, A. caviae and A. allosaccharophila than EO extracts prepared from pomegranate and orange peels in disc diffusion test. Also, it was found that edible films prepared from pomegranate peels had the most antibacterial effect on the three bacterial species.

Abstract

Blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) is a fishery commodity with a fairly high selling value, both as a local commodity and as an export commodity. The high level of utilization and trade of blue swimming crabs is not matched by knowledge of how to conserve these resources so that it can result in a decrease in blue swimming crab resource stocks. Sampling was carried out in November 2021 using a selected random sampling method. The density of the male blue swimming crab is 94,118 ind/km2 and the female is 58,824 ind/km2. The results of the analysis of the width-weight relationship of the blue swimming crab showed the nature of the blue swimming crab growth was negative allometric with a b value of 2.579.Keywords: blue swimming crab; density; Letman; width-weight relationship

Abstract

Freshwater lobsters have been developed as a commodity for consumption since 2003. The need for this commodity is increasing but production is still very low, so the price of freshwater lobsters is quite high and expensive. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out reproduction to carry out the seeding process for Freshwater Lobsters (LAT) using an injection technique in the form of the Ovaprim Hormone to accelerate the maturity of the LAT gonads. This study aims to examine the administration of different doses of the ovaprim hormone on the maturation of freshwater lobster broodstock. The research was conducted for 60 days. The method used was a Randomized Block Design (RAK) with 4 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments in this study were P0 (control), P1 (0,3 ml), P2 (0,5 ml) and P3 (0,7 ml). The parameters observed in this study were Gonad Maturity Index (IKG), Egg Diameter and Pleopode Fecundity. The results of the observations showed that giving different doses of ovaprim to the maturation of freshwater crayfish was not significantly different (P<0.05) to the Gonad Maturity Index IKG), Egg Diameter and Pleopode Fecundity but was significantly different to the P0 (control) treatment. The best treatment in this study was treatment P3 (0.5 ,l) because it had the highest performance between the other treatments.Keywords: egg diameter; fecundity; freshwater lobster; maturation; ovaprim
