    Description: This study was conducted to determine the effects of dichlorvos ~9 2, 2 - dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP)~0 on the growth of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. The experiment was conducted in two phases: the first phase involved the exposure of the fish to different concentrations ~9 0.00 (control), 0.4ppm, 0.5ppm, 0.6ppm, 0.7ppm, 0.8ppm, 0.9ppm, 1.0ppm, 1.1 ppm and 1.2ppm~0 of dichlorvos for four days. The second phase was a recovery process in which the fish that survived from the first phase were introduced into clean, dechlorinated, toxicant-free water and were fed at 3% of their body weight for 12 weeks. The change in weight was measured every fortnight and the feed fed was adjusted to accommodate the change in weight. The highest values for weight gain, percentage weight gain, specific growth rate and average daily weight gain occurred in the control and these values were significantly (p〈0.05) higher than the values of these parameters recorded in the other treatments. The range of values of weight gain, percentage weight gain, specific growth rate and average daily weight gain are 6.76 ~c 3.01-18.45 ~c 8.90g, 69.45 ~c 18.52 - 105.52 ~c 33.67%, 1.54 ~c 0.33 - 2.08 ~c 0.46%/day and 0.48 ~c 0.21 - 1.21 ~c 0.65g respectively. Based on the results of this study, the exposure of fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus to dichlorvos ~9 2, 2- dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP)~0 affected the growth of the fish. Therefore, the use of dichlorvos on stored grains should be regulated because uncontrolled usage could cause mortality and impairment of growth in fish if the pesticide gets washed into water bodies inhabited by fish.

    Description: The morphometric characters of Cynothrissa mento from three major Lagoons (Ologe, Badagry and Epe) in Lagos, Nigeria were compared to assess the possibility of this fish species from the three Lagoons belonging to the same sub-population. The length-weight relationships (LWR), and condition factors (CF) of the fish were also described as well as the physico-chemical parameters of the three water bodies. The study was conducted between May, 2009 and April, 2010 and monthly sampling of fish and water was done in each sampling site. Seven7 physico-chemical parameters were assessed and these are; temperature, pH, salinity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, total alkalinity and total hardness. A total of 294 specimens (Ologe 60, Badagry 174 and Epe 60) of C. mento were collected from the landings of the local fisher folks from the sampling sites. Seven morphometric characters; total length (TL), standard length (SL), body depth (BD), head length (HL), head depth (HD), eye diameter (ED) and interorbital width (IW) were measured. There was no significant difference (p 〉 0.05) in all the physico-chemical parameters measured among the sampling sites except pH. Coefficient of difference revealed that the C. mento from the three lagoons are uniform in all the morphometric parameters examined, which means that the specimens from the three sampling sites do not belong to different sub-populations. The growth coefficient/slope (b) values obtained for the fish species from the sampling sites ranged from 2.27 - 2.53, and differed significantly (p 〈 0.05) from 3, which indicates that most of the fish species have negative algometric growth.

    Description: An experiment was conducted to determine the survival rate, fertilization rate, growth performance and feed utilization of the reciprocal hybrids of Clarias gariepinus and Heterobranchus bidorsalis. Two genetic crosses were made: C. gariepinus (male) x H. bidorsalis (female)(Clariabranchus) and H. bidorsalis male x C. gariepinusmale (Heteroclarias. The experiment was divided into two phases; artificial propagation of the fish species using synthetic hormone and rearing the fry for 14 days; and rearing the 14 days old fry for 35 days. In the first phase of the experiment, survival of frys were estimated in each experimental unit (genetic cross) while in the second phase, growth and nutrient utilization were investigated. The result revealed that the highest %fertilization, hatching rate and %survival occurred in H. bidorsalisfemale x C. gariepinus male (Heteroclarias) and the differences were significant (p 〈 0.05). Percentage weight gain and specific growth rate were significantly (p 〈 0.05) higher in Clariabranchus than Heteroclarias. Based on the result of this study, reciprocal hybrids of Clarias gariepinus and Heterobranchus, bidorsalis is recommended for commercial aquacultural practices.

    Description: The effects of fresh garlic (Allium sativum) at concentrations of 0 g/kg (control), 10 g/kg, 30 g/kg and 50 g/kg of fish on lipid oxidation and microbial growth of hot smoked catfish Clarias gariepinus during a 28 day storage period at ambient temperature of 20-260C was examined. The samples were subjected to chemical and microbial analyses during the storage period. The results of analyses suggest that fresh garlic possesses antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, which can extend the shelf life of Clarias gariepinus.

    Description: The anti-oxidative and anti-fungal effects of ginger oil on smoked Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus, Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus was examined during five week storage at room temperature (25-30)~'C. The ginger oil was extracted from fresh ginger through hydro-distillation. The fish samples were gutted washed thoroughly and each fish species was divided into three groups. Two groups were spiced with 1.0ml and 1.5ml of ginger oil/kg of fish respectively before they were smoke dried for 2 hours. The third group acts as the control which was not spiced with ginger oil. Chemical and microbiological analyses were performed to investigate quality changes, and to determine the shelf stability of the products. The lowest TBA (14.64 mg MDA/kg), and Peroxide (3.91 mEq/kg) values were recorded in 0. niloticus samples treated with 1.5ml ginger oil/kg of fish at week 1, while the highest TBA (30.48 mg MDA/kg), and PV (18.76 mEq/kg) occurred in the C. gariepinus control at week 5. The result also revealed that samples treated with ginger oil had lower mould count than the control, but there was no significant different (P~.0.05), when compared to the control after 5 weeks of storage.

    Description: This study was carried out to investigate the ability of Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart.]Solms) to absorb and translocate iron (Fe) and copper (Cu). The study was conducted with three concentration gradients of Fe and Cu at 10mg/l, 15mg/l, 20mg/l and control (no metal); the whole set-up was done in triplicates and the experiment lasted for 12 weeks. The results showed that iron (Fr) had the highest accumulation value in the root (1.12 ~c 0.42), while copper (Cu) had the highest value in the leave (0.38 ~c 0.06); both at 20mg/l. Statistical analysis showed that there was significant difference among treatment (p&lt0.05). Translocation factor (TF) is the ratio between metal concentrations in aerial part to metal concentration in the root. Metals that are accumulated by plants and largely stort in the roots are indicated by TF values less than 1, when greater than 1, its indicate good translocation capabilities. The TF value for Fe ranged from 0.49 ~c 0.57- 0.68 ~c 0.27 in leaf, and 0.64 ~c 0.17- 0.77 ~c 0.18 in the stem. While the Translocation factor values for Ca ranged from 0.78 ~c 0.08- 1.12 ~c 0.12 in leaf and 0.72 ~c 0.32- 1.09 ~c 0.19 in the stem. This reveals that Cu had better translocation capability than Fe. Highest values of bioconcentration factor (BCF) for Fe and Cu were 2.32 ~c 0.65 at 20mg/l and 0.72 ~c 0.01 at 15mg/l obtained in the root and leaf respectively, indicating that the accumulation potential of Fe by water hyacinth is higher than Cu. In conclusion, according to the accumulation capabilities of the investigated plant (Eichhornia crassipes), this study showed that the plant was found to be a promising candidate for phytoremediation and adequate for bio-monitoring programs for contaminated water.
