Abstract: (462 Views)
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of injecting different hormonal agents on sex steroids levels and biochemical parameters of the blood plasma in females Caspian roach (Rutilus caspicus). In order to perform the experiment, groups of five fish were injected intraperitoneally as follows: 1) two injections of Ovaprim (Ova), 2) two injections of Ovopel (Ovo), 3) a priming dose of Ovopel with a resolving dose of Ovaprim (Comb1), 4) a priming dose of Ovaprim with a resolving dose of Ovopel (Comb2), and 5) sterile 0.9% saline. According to the observations, the highest concentrations of progesterone and estradiol were measured in control group and concentrations of these hormones sharply declined after spawning in the experimental treatments (P < 0.05). Moreover, the lowest testosterone concentration was observed in the control group and after spawning, its concentration showed a significant increase in hormone-induced treatments (P < 0.05). The highest plasma glucose concentration was obtained in the control group, and the lowest concentration was observed in the Comb1 treatment (P < 0.05). No significant difference was observed between experimental treatments in the concentration of plasma biochemical parameters (P > 0.05). Overall, the present study showed that hormonal agents can significantly affect the levels of sex steroids in the blood plasma of Caspian roach breeders. These results showed the need to consider the proper induction strategies and welfare conditions of Caspian roach breeders in captivity.
