“…A study on growth performance, fatty acid profile, gut and muscle histo-morphometry was carried out in the post-larval stage of T. tambroides, using administration of short-term probiotic (Hossain et al, 2022). In order to determine the immune systems of the offspring of wild-collected and captive-matured T. putitora, immune gene characterisation and expression comparison studies were conducted during ontogenetic developmental stages (Tripathi et al, 2022). Melinda et al (2022) analysed the genomic information of T. tambroides using the Illumina and Nanopore technologies which helps in species identification and analysis of various biological parameters.…”

Mahseers belonging to genus Tor, Neolissochilus and Naziritor, comprise important groups of food and sport fishes in thefreshwater eco-systems. Tor mahseers being potential game fish are recognised as cultural icon in the pristine waters acrossthe globe. They also have high nutritional value with high content of DHA, EPA and amino acids which are important tohuman health. Presently, 17 species of Tor, 25 species of Neolissochilus and 2 species of Naziritor have been reported andvalidated throughout the world. However, due to several anthropogenic and natural activities, their population is dwindlingacross most of the natural ecosystems and IUCN has categorised the group as endangered. Change in temperature andmonsoon floods triggers the act of migration and spawning behaviour of mahseers in their respective ecological conditions.There are 47 species of mahseers in the world, out of which India harbours fifteen species. These species widely occur in therocky and pristine fast flowing streams of India, China, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Pakistanand Bangladesh. The present paper embodies the status of mahseers under the genera Tor, Neolissochilus and Naziritorto understand this magnificent group of fishes having extraordinary importance in terms of balancing aquatic biodiversitysustainability, creating opportunities for increasing livelihood though utilising this fish in sports (angling and ecotourism)and draws immediate attention for its conservation in inclusive and responsible manner.
