Releasing of Sturgeon Fingerlings from Shahid Beheshti rearing and propagation center and Yousefpour Hatchery in 1999

During 1999, Shahid Beheshti & Yousefpour hatcheries were released 6499769 fingerlings produced by 225 female spawners from 1999.5.28 to 1999.7.26. Totally 2458667 fingerlings released from Shahid Beheshti hatchery which consisted of 2360490 specimen of Acipenser persicus (96% frequency) with mean weight of 1.8 g and 7.6 cm length, 86177 specimen of Acipenser stellatus (3.5% frequency) with mean weight of 3.9 g and 11.2 cm length, 1200 specimen of Acipenser nudiventris (0.5% frequency) with mean weight of 3.6 g and 8.7cm length. Out of the total numbers of fingerlings released 82.4% of A. persicus, 45% of A. stellatus & 25% of A. nudiventris fingerlings were below 3g. The survival rate of A. persicus & A. stellatus were 33.7% and 32.0%, respectively. The result of study on growth coefficient and condition factor showed these fingerlings had low growth coefficient (4.89) and mean condition factor (04). In Yousefpour hatchery 4020002 sturgeon fingerlings were released consist of 3968262 specimen of A. persicus (99.4% frequency) with mean weight of 3.1 g and 8.9cm length, 51740 specimen of A. stellatus (0.6% frequency) with mean weight of 0.9g & 6.3cm length. Out of total number of released 61.7% of A. persicus and 100% Of A. stellatus were below 3g. The total Survival rate of A. persicus & A. Stellatus fingerlings were 46.3 and 28.4%, respectively. The experiments Showed that the growth coefficient and condition factor were low, 3.64 and 0.37, respectively. The results of comparing the mean quality of A. persicus between Shahid beheshti & Yousefpour (P0.05) showed that there is a significant difference among length, weight, condition factor & growth coefficient of these 2 hatcheries in a way that the fingerlings released from Yousefpour rearing and propagation center had better condition in terms of length and weight but, their growth coefficient and Condition factor were lower than A. persicus fingerlings in Shahid Beheshti hatchery.
