Complete mitogenome sequences for Clarias batrachus (magur) and Pangasius pangasius (family Claridae and Pangasiidae, respectively) were generated, which were 16,511 and 16,476 bp, respectively. Both the mitogenomes contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs and 1 non-coding (control) region. The order of the genes was identical to that observed in most other vertebrates. The genome resource of complete mitogenome sequence of Indian catfish species generated during this study would be useful in phylogenetic studies.

Effects of prolonged oxytetracycline supplementation on freshwater stinging catfish (): a multi-biomarker approach.

Background: Aquaculture systems that sporadically depend on antibiotics can contribute to the development of adverse effects on the fish, microbial flora and the environment. This study sought to investigate the impacts of extended oxytetracycline supplementation on the freshwater stinging catfish through a multi-biomarker approach.
Methods: A total of 300 (20 ± 0.
Saprolegniasis is one of the most dangerous fungal diseases of fish, causing significant mortality in fish hatcheries and young ones. The present study aimed to isolate and characterize the causative fungus from fingerlings of Pangasianodon hypophthalmus cultured intensively in freshwater cages in Indian reservoirs and to determine minimum inhibitory concentrations of different antifungal compounds against the fungal hyphae and zoospores. The fungal isolates grown on potato dextrose agar showed an abundance of gemmae, elongated mycelia, non-septate hyphae, primary zoospores, mature zoosporangia with numerous zoospores, cysts with bundles of long hairs and were further identified as Saprolegnia parasitica following PCR amplification and sequencing of internal transcribed spacer region.

Clarias dussumieri, a near threatened freshwater catfish, is endemic to peninsular India and has aquaculture potential. Unlike its sister species, C. magur, the male fish needs not be sacrificed during captive breeding.

Fish, being highly sensitive to changes in the physico-chemical parameters of water, are good indicators of contamination. Teesta, a prominent northern West Bengal River system, is increasingly contaminated due to anthropogenic activities. This study aims to determine agricultural pesticide contamination and its genotoxic impact on the resident fish, Pethia conchonius, as an experimental organism.
