Abstract: (2030 Views) |
| This study aimed to investigate the changes and growth pattern of Persian sturgeon fishing in fishing regions of Golestan and biological characteristics of this species over a period of 10 years. The highest amount of Persian sturgeon fishing was in 2012, when a total of 143 pieces of this species were caught from five fishing grounds in Golestan province, and the lowest amount was caught in 1398, when 49 pieces of this species were caught. in the present study, the maximum total length of Qarabrun was in 1397 with a total length of 257 cm. Mianqaleh fishing farm had the highest number of catches (471 pieces) of this species and the lowest amount of catches (26 pieces) for this species was recorded in Chalasht fishing farm. The results showed that the highest average total length was observed in 2014 and the highest total weight was observed in 2017 and the lowest average total length and total weight was obtained in 2012. The sex ratio of males to females of Persian sturgeon species in the ten-year period was 1.24: 1, where the male population was higher (p < 0.05). The range of growth coefficient (b) for the population of Persian sturgeon in the years 2011 to 2020 varied between 2.60 to 3.82, The results of Pauli test for the relationship between length and weight of Persian sturgeon species showed that the growth pattern of this species in 2011 and 2012 was negative allometric, in 2015 positive allometric and in 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 It was isometric. Conclusion of this study shows that in a period of 10 years for Qarahbrun species had a decrease of 75%, so in the waters of Golestan province this trend for Qarahbrun is among the most endangered species and this means an alarm for this valuable species It has been heard in the Caspian Sea. |
