exploitation of 7 freshwater species, Freshwater bream ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Abramis brama </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Linnaeus, 1758), Vimba bream ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Vimba vimba </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;"> Linnaeus, 1758), Wels catfish ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Silurus glanis </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;"> Linnaeus, 1758), Roach ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Rutilus rutilus </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Linnaeus, 1758), European perch ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Perca fluviatilis </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;"> Linnaeus, 1758),
Prussian carp ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Carassius gibelio </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;">
Bloch, 1782) and White bream ( </span> <i> <span style="font-size:12px;">Blicca
bjoerkna </span> </i> <span style="font-size:12px;"> Linnaeus, 1758), from Lower Sakarya River, Turkey. Samplings were
conducted from June 2017 to May 2018. Length-based estimations were evaluated
in FiSAT II software. Total (Z), natural (M), fishing (F </span> <sub> <span style="font-size:12px;">curr </span> </sub> <span style="font-size:12px;">)
mortality, exploitation rate (E </span> <sub> <span style="font-size:12px;">curr </span> </sub> <span style="font-size:12px;">) and CPUEs of all 7 species were
determined. Results showed that almost all reference points stayed below the
natural and fisheries mortality values. Besides overfishing, pollutants
(chemical, physical and biological) and changes in the river morphology may
affect the fish populations. Study results could be used for further fisheries
management applications. </span> </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>}, number={4}, organization={Muğla Sıtkı Koçman Üniversitesi}
