Biological parameters of the endangered fish Chitala chitala (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae) from some Indian rivers

Fisheries Research, 2008
Abstract Age, growth and maturity data of the freshwater feather back Chitala chitala (Hamilton-Buchanan, 1822) were collected from ten different geographical locations. Out of ten populations, maximum 6+ ages were recorded from four river basins namely river Bhagirathi, Koshi, Saryu and Ganga and the back calculated lengths at 6+ ages ranged from ...

Captive breeding of endangered fish Chitala chitala (Hamilton-Buchanan) for species conservation and sustainable utilization

Biodiversity and Conservation, 2006
Over the last few decades wild population of Chitala chitala (HamiltonBuchanan) has been declined more than 50% due to various reasons and is presently listed under endangered (EN) category due to reduced abundance. In the present communication wild C. chitala were collected from natural habitats and induced to spawn under captivity during July 2002 by

Development and characterization of a new cell line CF from caudal fin of knifefish, Chitala chitala (Hamilton-Buchanan)

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 2013
A new cell line was successfully obtained from caudal fin tissue of the economically important freshwater fish Chitala chitala. The cell line was optimally maintained at 28°C in Leibovitz's L-15 supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS). The effects of temperature and concentration of FBS on the growth of CF cells were examined.

Microsatellite marker set for genetic diversity assessment of primitive Chitala chitala (Hamilton, 1822) derived through SMRT sequencing technology

Molecular Biology Reports, 2018
In present study, single molecule-real time sequencing technology was used to obtain a validated set of microsatellite markers for application in population genetics of the primitive fish, Chitala chitala. Assembly of circular consensus sequencing reads resulted into 1164 sequences which contained 2005 repetitive motifs.

Length-weight relationship of clown knifefishChitala chitala(Hamilton 1822) from the River Ganga basin, India

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 2009
Summary This study describes the length–weight relationship (LWR) of the clown knifefish, Chitala chitala, in the River Ganga basin, India. A total of 221 specimens ranging from 31 to 120 cm total length (TL) and 550 to 12 000 g total weight (TW) were collected. Chitala chitala constitutes an important component of riverine fisheries of India and is

Performance of different types of diets on experimental larval rearing of endangered Chitala chitala (Hamilton) in recirculatory system

Aquaculture, 2006
Abstract This is the first report on the successful larval rearing of captive bred population of Chitala chitala (Hamilton). C. chitala is one of the endangered fresh water fish species in India for which the development of controlled larval rearing procedures are needed for stock enhancement. Fifteen days old post-hatchlings were stocked for 28 d in

Probiotic Effect of Bacillus licheniformis fb11 on the Digestive Efficiency and Growth Performance in Juvenile Chitala chitala (Hamilton, 1822)

Proceedings of the Zoological Society, 2017
Five isocaloric (430 kcal 100 g−1), isonitrogenous (40% CP) experimental diets were formulated with different concentrations of Bacillus licheniformis fb11 probionts (isolated from the gut of Chitala chitala) viz. Control (without probionts), 5 × 104 CFU g−1 (D1), 5 × 105 CFU g−1 (D2), 5 × 106 CFU g−1 (D3), 5 × 107 CFU g−1 (D4), 5 × 108 CFU g−1 (D5) to

A REVIEW ON MOLECULAR MARKERS DEVELOPMENT FOR CHITALA CHITALA: APPLICATIONS IN GENETIC STUDIES AND CONSERVATION

Asian Journal of Microbiology, Biotechnology & Environmental Sciences
– Human actions have highlighted the necessity of creating molecular tools for the conservation and management of aquatic species. Three major risks to freshwater fish species are overfishing, habitat degradation, and water pollution. Among these, Chitala chitala (Hamilton, 1822) is one of the economically valuable species in the Notopteridae family ...

An Overview of Biology And Culture Potentials of Humped FeatherbackChitala chitala(Hamilton, 1822) – A New Candidate for Aquaculture Diversification

Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture, 2018
ABSTRACTThe humped featherback, Chitala chitala, a member of the primitive teleost lineage, is also a commercially important food, sport, aquarium and highly priced cultivable fish. It represents an appreciated fishery resource in Southeast Asia, particularly in India. Due to habitat degradation and overexploitation of natural populations, this species

The histophysiology of the saccus vasculosus of Notopterus chitala (Teleostei)

Journal of Cell Science, 1963
ABSTRACT The apical protrusions of the coronet cells of the saccus vasculosus in Notopterus chitala contain glycogen which passes through the hairs into the globules. In spite of the availability of normal blood-glucose levels in fed controls, only a few cells in the loculi show glycogen ; thus there are individual differences in the ...
