Length–weight relationship of fishes from the Marmara region (NW-Turkey)
TL;DR: The relation between length (L) and weight (W) was estimated for 32 species representing 12 families of fishes from six water resources in the Marmara region, Turkey and the parameter b ranged from 2.66 to 3.56.

TL;DR: With the exception of smaller size at maturity, all traits were higher in populations from artificial water bodies than those inhabiting running waters, suggesting gibel carp is required to exert more reproductive effort to invade natural ecosystems than artificial waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circumstantial evidence of gibel carp, Carassius gibelio, reproductive competition exerted on native fish species in a mesotrophic reservoir.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the decline in the reservoir's native cyprinid populations is likely due to a combination of degrading environmental conditions and a disparity in reproductive effort, with introduced C. gibelio invasion facilitated by gynogenetic reproduction and an observed interference with native fishes during spawning.
Journal Article
Conversions of Total, Fork and Standard Length Measurements Based on 42 Marine and Freshwater Fish Species (from Turkish Waters)
Özcan Gaygusuz,Çiğdem Gürsoy,Müfit Özuluğ,Ali Serhan Tarkan,Hasan Acipinar,Gökçen Bilge,Halit Filiz +6 more
TL;DR: Relationships between total, fork and standard lengths belonging 19 families from Aegean and Marmara coast of Turkey were presented for 42 fish species and they were all linear.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bitterling–mussel coevolutionary relationship in areas of recent and ancient sympatry
Martin Reichard,Martin Reichard,Matej Polačik,Ali Serhan Tarkan,Rowena Spence,Özcan Gaygusuz,Ertan Ercan,Markéta Ondračková,Markéta Ondračková,Carl Smith +9 more
TL;DR: Mussels were demonstrated to have evolved strong defenses to bitterling parasitism in the area of ancient sympatry, but have no such defenses in the large areas of Europe where bitterling are currently invasive.
