ABSTRACT
Wild stocks of endangered mrigal carp, Cirrhinus cirrhosus (Bloch 1795), continues
to decline rapidly in the Indo-Ganges river basin. With an objective
to evaluate its population status, landmark-based morphometric and
meristic variations among three different stocks viz., hatchery
(Jessore), baor (Gopalganj) and river (Faridpur) in Bangladesh were
studied. Significant differences were observed in 10 of the 15 morphometric
measurements viz., head length, standard length, fork length, length
of base of spinous, pre-orbital length, eye length, post-orbital
length, length of upper jaw, height of pelvic fin and barbel length,
two of the 8 meristic counts viz., scales above the lateral line
and pectoral fin rays and 10 of the 22 truss network measurements
viz., 1 to 10, 2 to 3, 2 to 8, 2 to 9, 2 to 10, 3 to 4, 3 to 8,
4 to 5, 4 to 7 and 9 to 10 among the stocks. For morphometric and
landmark measurements, the 1st discriminant function (DF) accounted for 58.1% and the 2nd DF
accounted for 41.9% of the among-group variability.
In discriminant space, the river stock was isolated from the other
two stocks. On the other hand, baor and hatchery stocks formed a
very compact cluster. A dendrogram based on the hierarchical cluster
analysis using morphometric and truss distance data placed the hatchery
and baor in one cluster and the river in another cluster and the
distance between the river and hatchery populations was the highest.
Morphological differences among stocks are expected, because of
their geographical isolation and their origin from different ancestors.
The baseline information derived from the present study would be
useful for genetic studies and in the assessment of environmental
impacts on C. cirrhosus populations in Bangladesh.

ABSTRAK
Stok mrigal kap liar terancam, Cirrhinus cirrhosus (Bloch 1795) terus menyusut dengan pantas
di lembangan sungai Indo-Ganges. Dengan objektif untuk menilai semula
status populasi, morfometri berasaskan mercu tanda dan variasi meristik
antara tiga stok berbeza seperti, penetasan (Jessore), baor (Gopalganj)
dan Sungai (Faridpur) di Bangladesh telah dikaji. Perbezaan ketara
diperhatikan dalam 10 daripada 15 pengukuran morfometri seperti
panjang kepala, panjang piawai, panjang cabang, panjang pangkal
tulang belakang, panjang pra-orbit panjang mata, panjang pasca orbit,
panjang rahang atas, ketinggian fin pelvik dan panjang barbel, dua
daripada 8 kiraan meristik seperti sisik di atas garis deria dan
sinar sirip pektoral serta 10 daripada 22 pengukuran rangkaian kekuda
antara stok iaitu 1 hingga 10, 2 hingga 3, 2 hingga 8, 2 hingga
9, 2 hingga 10, 3 hingga 4, 3 hingga 8, 4 hingga 5, 4 hingga 7 dan
9 hingga 10. Bagi pengukuran morfometri dan mercu tanda, fungsi
diskriminasi (DF)
pertama menyumbang sebanyak 58.1% dan DF kedua menyumbang 41.9% kebolehubahan
antara kumpulan. Dalam ruangan diskriminasi, stok sungai dipencilkan
daripada dua stok lain. Selain itu, stok baor dan stok penetasan
membentuk kelompok yang sangat padat. Dendrogram yang berdasarkan
analisis kelompok hierarki menggunakan morfometri dan data jarak
kekuda meletakkan penetasan dan baor dalam satu kelompok dan sungai
dalam kelompok yang lain serta jarak antara populasi sungai dan
penetasan adalah yang tertinggi. Perbezaan morfologi antara stok
telah dijangka disebabkan pengasingan geografi serta asal-usul mereka
daripada nenek-moyang yang berbeza. Maklumat asas yang diperoleh
daripada kajian ini adalah penting untuk kajian genetik dan penilaian
kesan alam sekitar terhadap populasi C. cirrhosus di Bangladesh.
