The Use of Larvivorous Fish Species to Control Malaria Transmission in Africa: A Review

Malaria is caused by the Plasmodium parasite, which is transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes. There are five Plasmodium species that cause disease in humans; however, the most important species in terms of disease burden are Plasmodium falciparum, which is prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, and Plasmodium vivax, which is more common in Asia and South America. […]

A Review on the Effect of Pandemic on Aquaculture Production: A Case Study of Covid-19 in Nigeria

Coronavirus 2019 was a global health concern that left most countries in a state of severe economic meltdown, most countries are still trying to bounce back economically. Scientific research has been done on the virus and its impact on various sectors but that of the Nigerian aquaculture industry has being missing. This paves the way

Growth Pattern of the Golden Gray Mullet, Liza Aurata (Mugilidae) in the Southern Mediterranean Coast (Libya)

This study aimed to establish the von Bertalanffy growth model of the golden gray mullet Liza aurata in lagoonal habitats of the southern Mediterranean, as exemplified by Umm Hufayn, a brackish lagoon in eastern Libya. Eighty L. aurata fish collected randomly from the artisanal catch of Umm Hufayn were used in the study. The length-weight

Growth and Physiological responses of Juvenile African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) Fed with Dietary Supplementation of Garlic-Ginger Mixture

A-84-days study was conducted to evaluate the growth and physiological responses of juvenile Clarias gariepinus fed diets supplemented with garlic-ginger mixture. The garlic-ginger mixture was included in a base diet at 0%, 1%, 2%, and 3%; corresponding to treatments D0 or control, D1, D2 and D3. A total of 120 juveniles (46.55±3.66g) were randomly distributed

Assessment of Zooplankton and Physico-chemical Parameters of Upper River Benue, Adamawa State, Nigeria

Between January and June, 2022 some physico-chemical and biological conditions of Upper River Benue were assessed at five selected sites on monthly basis between 6:00 – 10:00a.m. A total of 9.849 ×104 organisms/L was recorded for zooplankton abundance. Rotifera was observed to have a total abundance of 39.9%, followed by Cladocera contributed a total of

Nutritional Value, and Heavy Metal Contents of Fish from the Lower River Niger at Agenebode, Edo State, Nigeria

Fish constitutes a vital component of human diets due to their rich nutritional compositions. They serve as a remarkable source of proteins, vitamins, and fatty acids, which are indispensable for the effective growth and development of humans. The need to explore the nutritional compositions of various species of fish in different water bodies becomes paramount.

Analysis of Trace Metal Bioaccumulation in Fish and Man; Health Risk Impact

Trace metals occur during natural processes and are also obtained during anthropogenic activities. Streams, lakes and rivers surrounded by farmlands engaged in the use of Trace metal-enriched fertilizers have shown a possible and positive correlation to the rise of Trace metals in the use of chemical, organic and water-soluble fertilizers for a long period. there
