“…The index of growth performance is considered a useful tool for comparing the growth curves between populations of the same species and/or different species that belong to the same family (Park et al, 2013). From the study, the growth performance index was in line with estimates from Forson and Amponsah (2020) for D. rhonchus in Ghana and Poojary et al (2011) for D. russelli in Indian waters that reported growth performance of 2.37 and 2.90, respectively.…”

Population parameters provide important information and can be considered important indicators of the variability and sustainability of stocks. The population parameters of Decapterus punctatus, in the coastal waters of Greater Accra, Ghana were studied between July 2018 and June 2019. We employed a two-stage sampling criterion in selecting five important fishing communities. In all, a total of 1,116 samples were collected randomly from selected fishermen who use multifilament fishing gears. The von Bertalanffy parameters were estimated at asymptotic length (L∞) = 29.8 cm, growth rate (K) = 0.35 per year and growth performance index (Φ′) = 2.49. Mortality parameters were calculated as total mortality rate (Z) = 1.77 per year, the natural mortality rate (M) = 0.62 per year, and fishing mortality rate (F) = 1.15 per year. The current exploitation rate (Ecurrent) was lower than the maximum exploitation (Emsy), indicating that D. punctatus fishery on the coast of Greater Accra is in a sustainable state.

“…Our ichthyoplankton metabarcoding analyses also revealed unreported spawning seasons of some species. For instance, we were able to detect the larvae of Cynoglossus robustus in the East/Japan Sea from January to April, and it was previously found on the southeastern coast of Korean peninsula from June to July (Park et al, 2013). In addition, the spawning seasons of several species, including Suruga fundicola, Anisarchus medius, Uranoscopus japonicus, Lepidotrigla microptera, and Neobythites sivicola, were first estimated in this study.…”

The spatiotemporal distribution of fish larvae and eggs is fundamental for their reproduction and recruitment in aquatic ecosystems. Here, a metabarcoding strategy was employed as an alternative to a conventional ichthyoplankton survey, which requires a considerable amount of time, labor, and cost. First, a piscine-specific universal primer set (FishU) was designed to amplify the region, flanking the highly conserved mitochondrial 12S and 16S ribosomal genes, and it was optimized for the MiSeq platform. Based on both in silico and in vitro analyses, the newly designed FishU primers outperformed the two previously reported fish-specific universal primer sets (ecoPrimer and MiFish) in taxon coverage, specificity, and accuracy in species identification. The metabarcoding results by FishU primers successfully presented the diversity of ichthyoplankton directly from the zooplankton net samples in the East/Japan Sea, presenting more accurate and plentiful species numbers than those by MiFish primers. Thus, the metabarcoding analysis of ichtyoplankton using the newly designed FishU primers is a promising tool for obtaining useful data to understand the reproduction of fish, such as spawning sites, reproductive periods, population structures, feeding ecology, and diet.

The biological indicators of Chrysichthys walkeri (Claroteid catfishes) in lake Volta were investigated for sustainable management. A total of 846 samples were collected from the lake from March to December 2020. The recorded total length of the fish samples was analyzed using TropFishR. The Von Bertalanffy parameters including asymptotic length (L∞), growth rate (K), and growth performance index (Φ) were estimated as 28.88 cm, 0.42 per year, and 2.54 respectively. Mortality parameters were calculated as total mortality rate (Z) = 2.56 per year, natural mortality rate (M) = 0.91 per year and fishing mortality rate (F) = 1.65 per year. The exploitation rate (E) was 0.64. There is the need to ensure continuous monitoring of fishing effort to ensure the sustainable exploitation and management of C. walkeri.
