Specimens of A. chalcoides caught in Siahroud (central of south Caspian Basin) and Gorganroud (east of south Caspian Basin) during spawning season from February to August 2007 were examined for life history attributes. The fish had a 5-year life cycle in the rivers and grew allometrically, being negative allometric for males of the Siahroud and positive for both males and females of Gorganroud and for females of Siahroud. The von Bertalanffy growth functions were L t =370.08 (1-e -0.15(t+0.70) ) for males and L t =432.52 (1-e -0.11(t+1.21) ) for females in the Siahroud and L t =371.79 (1-e -0.14(t+0.96) ) for males and L t =436.10(1-e -0.11(t+1.34) ) for females in the Gorganroud. Overall sex ratio was unbalanced in favor of females in the rivers. The GSI indicated that reproduction of Caspian shemaya occurred between April-July in the Siahroud and March-June in the Gorganroud, peaking in May in both rivers. The absolute fecundity ranged between 1,674-38,340 eggs with a mean of 8,426.25 eggs in the Siahroud and between 623-17,263 eggs with a mean of 4,214.70 eggs in the Gorganroud, while relative fecundity ranged from 23.28 to 598.86 eggs/g with an average of 211.68 eggs/g of body weight in the Siahroud and from 12.11 to 696.38 eggs/g with an average of 111.60 eggs/g of body weight in the Gorganroud. Mean egg diameter in the Siahroud was 1.40±0.14mm and 1.27±0.27mm in the Gorganroud. Comparisons of the results imply that many aspects of life history of Caspian shemaya are different markedly among the rivers. The differences were thought to have emanated from differences in habitat characteristics. ) ve dişiler için L t =432,52 (1-e -0,11(t+1,21) ), Gorganroud'daki erkekler için L t =371,79(1-e -0,14(t+0,96) ) ve dişiler için L t =436,10(1-e -0,11(t+1,34) ) bulunmuştur. Genel cinsiyet oranı dişilerin lehinedir. Tatlı su kolyozunun üremesi Siahroud nehrinde Nisan-Temmuz arasında, Gorganroud nehrinde ise Mart-Haziran arasında gerçekleşmekte ve her iki nehirde de Mayıs ayında pik yapmaktadır. Mutlak fekondite, Siahroud nehrinde 1.674-38.340 arasında değişmekle birlikte ortalama 8,426.25 yumurta iken, Gorganroud nehrinde 623-17.263 arasında değişme göstermekte ve ortalama 4.214,70 yumurta olarak bulunmuştur. Relatif fekondite ise Siahroud nehrinde 23,28-598,86 yumurta/g arasında değişerek vücut ağırlığının ortalama 211,68 yumurta/g olurken Gorganroud nehrinde 12,11-696,38 yumurta/g arasında değişerek vücut ağırlığının ortalama 111,60 yumurta/g olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ortalama yumurta çapı Siahroud'da 1,40±0,14mm, Gorganroud'da 1,27±0,27 mm olarak ölçülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, tatlısu kolyozunun yaşam özelliklerine ait durumlar nehirler arasında önemli derece farklı bulunmuştur. Farklılıkların habitat özelliklerinden kaynaklanmış olduğu düşünülmüştür.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
