The Structure, Mortality And Growth Of The Tench [Tinca Tinca (L., 1758)] Population In Çivril Lake, Denizli, Turkey, Süleyman Balik, Hasan M. Sari, Mustafa Ruşen Ustaoğlu, Ali̇ İlhan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The population structure, mortality and growth of the tench [Tinca tinca (L., 1758)] in Çivril Lake was investigated, using 506 fish caught with various gill nets between February 1998 and January 1999. The percentages of females and males in the population were 38.34% and 61.66%, respectively, and the overall female-male sex ratio was 1:1.61. Specimens ranged from 11.4 to 28.8 cm in fork length, and from 27.7 to 420.4 g in weight. The age distribution was I-V in the population. For all individuals, the length-weight relation and von Bertalanffy growth parameters were W = 0.018 L^{3.01}, and L_{\infity} = 33.85 …


Changes In Meat Yield And Food Component Of Smoked Tench (Tinca Tinca L., 1758), Levent İzci̇, Ö. Osman Ertan Jan 2004

Changes In Meat Yield And Food Component Of Smoked Tench (Tinca Tinca L., 1758), Levent İzci̇, Ö. Osman Ertan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

In this study, changes in the food component and meat yield in hot smoked tench (Tinca tinca L., 1758) were investigated. The meat yield of tench was calculated as 49.27 ± 0.76%. Before hot smoking the water content, and crude fat, crude protein, crude ash and carbohydrate levels were determined as 83.19 ± 0.56%, 1.11 ± 0.05%, 12.68 ± 0.57%, 1.13 ± 0.10% and 1.89 ± 0.14%, respectively. After hot smoking the water content and crude fat, crude protein, cude ash and carbohydrate levels were determined as 73.59 ± 0.35%, 1.56 ± 0.13%, 18.38 ± 0.64%, 4.29 ± 0.26% and …


Karyotype Analyses Of The Tench (Tinca Tinca L., 1758) Living In Lake Mogan (Ankara), Mustafa Hamalosmanoğlu, Mustafa Kuru Jan 2004

Karyotype Analyses Of The Tench (Tinca Tinca L., 1758) Living In Lake Mogan (Ankara), Mustafa Hamalosmanoğlu, Mustafa Kuru

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Chromosome numbers and structures were investigated in (Tinca tinca L., 1758) of the family Cyprinidae. A solution of 1 ml/100 g of 0.1% colchicine was injected intramuscularly. Four hours later the fish were killed and the kidney and gills were removed and cytogenetic methods were applied. Metaphase chromosomes of the cells in these tissues were investigated numerically and morphologically. It was determined that the fish have 2n = 48 diploid chromosomes made up of 6 pairs of metacentric, 8 pairs of subtelocentric and 10 pairs of acrocentric. The average haploid chromosome length was 2.191 µ. The chromosomes were named and …


Helminth Infections In Tench (Tinca Tinca) From Kapulukaya Dam Lake, Kader Yildiz Jan 2003

Helminth Infections In Tench (Tinca Tinca) From Kapulukaya Dam Lake, Kader Yildiz

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was conducted to determine helminth infections in tench (Tinca tinca), caught in Kapulukaya dam lake. The tench were transferred to the laboratory alive or recently dead. Thereafter, they were necropsied. Postmortem examination of the fish revealed that 84% were positive for various helminth species. Asymphylodora tincae (97.6%), Pomphorhynchus laevis (26.1%), metacercariae (15.4%), plerocercoids of Ligula sp. (5.9%) and nematode larvae (2.2%) were detected in infected fish. A. tincae was found in the intestine, P. laevis was found both in the intestine and in the abdominal cavity, plerocercoids of Ligula sp. were found only in the abdominal cavity, while …
