Population dynamics of Asp Leuciscus aspius from the Želivka dam
Bouše, Eduard ; Švátora, Miroslav (advisor) ; Pivnička, Karel (referee)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the material about the asp Leuciscus aspius (L., 1758) from the dam Želivka - Švihov in the years 1971 - 2014. Main emphasis was put on the analysis of the flock spawning from 2008 - 2014. Here, basic abiotic conditions were monitored at the time of the spawning and growth and population characteristics were calculated. Spawning took place at two locations, at 4 - 10 0 C, the asp showed a spawning site accuracy. Males predominated on the spawning grounds in the overall ratio of 1,22 : 1. The age of the fish examined ranged from 3+ to 13+. The average mortality of adults is about 0,4. Additional flock spawning ranges from 20 to 50%. The length at which scales begin to form (SL = 29,7 mm), was determined by using the rate between the body length and scale radius. Differences in the growth rates between males a females are minimal, only from the third to the fifth age group, males showed a higher growth rates. The length - weight relationship can be described as W = 0,0153. L3,19 .

Population dynamics of Asp Leuciscus aspius ( L., 1758) from the Želivka dam
Bouše, Eduard ; Švátora, Miroslav (advisor) ; Pivnička, Karel (referee)
The scale material of the asp (Leuciscus aspius, L., 1758) collected from the Želivka dam between 1971 and 2012 has been processed and evaluated. The samples gathered between 2008 and 2012 have been used to determine the basic growth and population characteristics. In the first place I focused on the shoal spawning analysis. The age of individuals in this analysis ranged between 3+ to 13+, at the body length ranging between 370 to 690 mm. The length of the fish when the scales begin to appear (SL = 29,7 mm) was determined on the base of correlation between the body length and the scale radius. The growth rate in recent years was defined using the technique of back - calculation from the scales. The body length-weight relationship can be described as W = 0,009 ∙ L3,1 . The difference in the growth speed between males and females was minimal and statistically inconclusive. The growth speed of an asp in the Želivka dam is roughly at the same level as all other water reservoirs in Czech Republic.
