“…But what is problematic is the increase in the areas of these metals due to human industrial activities such as the increase of industrial effl uents and industrial wastes, oil pollution, toxins, pests and so on. On the one hand, these pollutants reduce water-soluble oxygen, and on the other hand, the presence of toxins has a direct eff ect on fi sh and causes their losses [18]. Water that passes through watersheds or riverbeds carries minerals or solutes with them, poisoning fi sh in the lower reaches of the river.…”

The development of industries and the uncontrolled increase of population, the development of agricultural areas and the use of fertilizers and pesticides have caused industrial and municipal wastewaters as well as agricultural effluents with heavy metals to enter water ecosystems. After entering aquatic ecosystems, heavy metals accumulate in aquatic tissues and eventually enter the food chain. Research on heavy metal pollution in aquatic ecosystems is important from a public health perspective, maintaining the balance of those ecosystems and preventing biodegradation due to the adverse effects of pollutants. So, researchers have focused on determining the level of pollution of various water sources, how metals are absorbed by aquatic animals, bioaccumulation of heavy metals in various aquatic tissues and the possibility of using aquatic animals as biological indicators based on pollutant monitoring. Due to the importance of this issue, the present study has investigated the effect of heavy metals on fish.

“…Perga and Gray ( 43) observed different growth rates between adult and young fish based on morphological and physiological characters. The larger size of the fish mouth allows fish to ingest a wider range of preys with larger sizes such as Brachyura, Caridea, and Teleostei (44)(45)(46)(47) to afford their requirements (38), which in turn influence the accumulation of TEs in their body.…”

The trace elements (TEs) in aquatic environments due to anthropogenic activities are readily available to aquatic organisms. There are 153 fish species inhabiting the Caspian Sea. However, little is known about TE (TE) concentrations in these species. In this study, we investigated the effects of TEs levels in the brain of some bony fish species inhabiting the Caspian basin. Totally, 405 fish from nine species with different feeding behaviors including Leuciscus aspius (n = 20) and Perca fluviatilis (n = 37) as piscivores, Rutilus kutum (n = 27) and Rutilus caspius (n = 71) as carnivores, Vimba persa (n = 56), Ponticola caspia (n = 25) and Tinca tinca (n = 31) as mollusivores, and Alburnus chalcoides (n = 77) and Alosa braschnikowi (n = 61) as zooplanktivores were collected from the southwest of the Caspian Sea basin from September 2017 to June 2018. The ICP-OES was used to measure TEs in the brain tissue of fish. The variability of TEs concentrations in the brain tissues of these fishes by principal component analysis (PCA) was decreased to 63.59% and 17.68% for PC1 and PC2, respectively, exhibiting that 81.27% of the total variability is associated with K, Mg, P, S, Zn, and Al. The two-dimensional diagrams showed the weight of each component in PCA. The PC1 was mostly influenced by P, Mg, K, and Zn, while the greatest value in PC2 belonged to Al. Furthermore, the entire number of elements determined in this study was found to be a suitable indicator for the distinction between fish species based on their feeding items.

“…The Shijan region in the eastern lagoon spends time in deep areas and then, as the weather warms up in late winter, they migrate to rivers that are covered with marginal vegetation such as reeds and loess, and carry out propagation operations on them, which is why the reason for this form of Caspian kutum is called phytophilus. But now the main population of Caspian kutum in the Caspian Sea belongs to the spring form, which accounts for more than 98% of the reserves [9].…”
