記者從中科院昆明動物研究所獲悉,，該所系統(tǒng)進化與生物地理學研究組的科研人員，通過多年的監(jiān)測和數(shù)據(jù)收集，首次明確了云南高原特有種中甸葉須魚的體長與體重關系,、年齡與生長曲線,、繁殖時間、周期等基礎生物學和生態(tài)學資料,。研究成果日前發(fā)表于魚類生態(tài)學SCI期刊《應用魚類學報》,。
據(jù)該研究組博士陳小勇介紹，中甸葉須魚為鯉形目鯉科裂腹魚亞科魚類,，為我國云南高原特有種,。該種歷史上分布于云南省迪慶藏族自治州的小中甸河、那亞河,、碧塔海,、屬都湖和納帕海，是青藏高原隆升地質背景下,，裂腹魚類三級演化過程中的特化等級物種,。近年來其野外種群數(shù)量減少，受危因素增多,，被《中國物種紅色名錄》認定為瀕危物種,。
在科技部和云南省科技廳的支持下，該研究組從2008年起,，對中甸地區(qū)原中甸葉須魚的分布區(qū)域進行了水生生物監(jiān)測,。研究結果發(fā)現(xiàn)，目前,，中甸葉須魚僅在碧塔海中殘存一定種群，其物種地位更加瀕危,。
“通過野外數(shù)據(jù)的收集,，我們利用漩渦模型分析了中甸葉須魚的種群生存力，預測了理想狀態(tài)下未來100年內,，其種群動態(tài),、自然災害和人為干擾等外界因素的變化導致種群的變動趨勢。我們認為,，人類活動對中甸葉須魚的影響持續(xù)時間長,，程度大，是威脅魚類生存的最主要的因素,。”陳小勇告訴記者,，目前，人類活動造成的不利因素累積,，可能在20%以上,，如果不采取相應的保護措施，這種不利影響將會逐漸加強，一旦超過35%,，中甸葉須魚將會面臨滅絕的危險,。（生物谷 Bioon.com）

This paper provides the length-weight relationship (LWR) and other biological information of a threatened plateau freshwater fish species Ptychobarbus chungtienensis in the subfamily Schizothoracinae of the family Cyprinidae, from the Bita Lake of Shangri-la, in Yunnan, China. The LWR was BW = 0.00954 TL2.95 for a total of 392 individuals, where the coefficient b was close to 3.0, suggesting a near-isometric growth in this species. The total length: standard length relationship was TL = 0.399 + 1.151 SL. Fitting a von Bertalanffy growth function to the observed length-at-age data resulted in L(t) = 53.1 (1-e−0.08(t−0.2)). The natural mortality rate (M) was 0.20 year−1. Length at first maturity (Lm) was 20.57 cm, and 6.3 years the theoretical estimated age at first maturity (Am). Ptychobarbus chungtienensis mature gradually beginning in May, reaching a reproduction peak around August, with most individuals completing reproduction by October. The gonadosomatic index (GSI) was highest in August (GSI = 0.1351) and lowest in October (GSI = 0.0467). The male index (GSI = 0.0866) was lower than in females (GSI = 0.1466) (P < 0.05). Mean condition factor (Km) of P. chungtienensis was 0.8500, and not significantly different between sexes (P = 0.124), but differing significantly between seasons. In October the condition factor (Km = 0.9211) was significantly higher than in May (Km = 0.8379) or in August (Km = 0.8412) (P < 0.05).
