To scientifically guide the improvement of rice field fishery production, the data in this study were selected from the latest China Fishery Statistical Yearbook, and therefore the development of paddy aquaculture was investigated. In order to more precisely predict the production of rice-fish in China, this paper introduces an artificial neural network with the SSA-BP model, which solves the drawbacks of the BP neural network such as easy to fall into local optimum and slow convergence speed when it is used for prediction. Firstly, the SSA-BP model incorporates the aquaculture area (split by water area), the national freshwater fish seedling output, the national end-of-year ownership of inland fishing vessels, the number of freshwater fisheries practitioners as input variables, and the production of rice-fish as an output variable; secondly, the SSA optimization algorithm was used to find the optimal initial thresholds and weights for the BP neural network, and finally the SSA-BP prediction model was constructed. The results revealed that the overall expansion of the rice field fishery was swift in the last five years, and the output of cultivated fish in China’s rice fields rose by nearly 20% yearly in the past five years. Compared with the BP neural network and GA-BP models, the accuracy of the SSA-BP prediction model was enhanced by 61.01% and 16.15%, respectively, which was more suited for predicting the production of rice-fish.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Ichthyology","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/5739961","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141631154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research findings indicated that the highest gonadosomatic index (GSI) for males (1.17) was observed in August, while for females, it peaked in July (2.24). Female fish exhibited absolute fecundity ranging from 2089 to 26287 eggs, corresponding to body weights ranging between 10.46 and 153.73 g. The relative fecundity ranged from 170 to 298 eggs g⁻¹ of body weight. To induce breeding, female brooders were administered Gonopro-FH hormone through three experimental groups: G-FH_0.4, G-FH_0.5, and G-FH_0.6, with doses of 0.4 mL, 0.5 mL, and 0.6 mL·kg⁻¹ of body weight, respectively. Spawning occurred within 6–10 h after hormone administration.

Four levels of PS at 0, 2, 4, and 6 g kg⁻¹ diet were added to a commercial feed (32% crude protein) and fed to advanced fingerlings (19.08 ± 0.02 g) at 3% body weight, which forms the experimental groups, designated as control, T1, T2, and T3. Subsequent alterations in growth (% weight gain and specific growth rate), reproduction (gonadosomatic index (GSI) and gonadal histology), and physiological function (haematology and stress biomarkers, viz., cortisol and glucose) were examined at the end of the experiment. Observations noted at the end of the trial showed significantly (<i>P</i> &lt; 0.05) enhanced growth in groups fed 2 g kg⁻¹, but not significantly with control.

Prior research emphasizes the species’ propensity to control gastropods, but since subsequent escape and establishment of black carp in portions of the Mississippi River Basin, concerns now focus on the numerous endangered and endemic bivalve species upon which black carp may predate. Black carp mouth gape may limit predation on larger bivalves, but bite force is also a factor. We used regression of fish length to mouth gape of wild-caught black carp and compared these results to tank forage size preference trials with bivalve prey <i>Corbicula fluminea</i> clams. Wild-caught black carp ranged from 429 to 1580 mm total length, a size range larger than measured in previous studies. Regression of fish length and mouth gape indicated greater variability among sizes, as expected from wild versus cultured populations. Clam consumption was size-dependent. Black carp commonly engulfed but did not consume the largest clams in tank feeding trials. Shell width was a better predictor of successful consumption than length or height. Predation was restricted at sizes less than the mouth gape of test black carp as observed by individuals engulfing but failing to consume prey. This result indicates that either bite force or the pharyngeal apparatus gape (i.e., the distance between the pharyngeal teeth and keratinous pad) limited successful crushing of engulfed shells. Bivalve predation by black carp is limited by both a fish’s ability to engulf prey and the ability to fracture the shell of larger prey items that cannot be broken or swallowed whole. The results of this research may be used to assess potential prey sizes of wild black carp and anticipated effects of predation on bivalve communities.</p>","PeriodicalId":14894,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Ichthyology","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141165003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
