HISTOPATHOLOGICAL STUDIES ON GILLS OF Leiognathus equulus (Perciformes) FROM AL-SHABAB LAGOON, IN JEDDAH PROVINCE
Journal Title: International Journal of Genetics - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
The gills of fish are sensitive to chemical and physical changes in the aquatic environment. Common pony fish Leiognathus equulus was caught from the Red Sea and Al-Shabab lagoon. This study was carried out to investigate the histopathological alternations induced by the Al-Shabab lagoon pollutants in gills. The common alternations observed were hyperplasia and fusion of gill lamellae, epithelial lifting, desquamation and necrosis of gill epithelial cells
