Abstract Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus is the dominant invasive species of the river Yamuna. Gut analysis showed that the majority of the food items ingested consisted of Chlorophyceae, Myxophyceae, Bacillariophyceae and detritus. Among the diatoms—Synedra spp. (80.75 %), Melosira spp. (73.5 %), Cyclotella spp. (73 %), Meridion spp. (71.75 %) and Nitzchia spp. (73.25 %), the green algae—Ankistrodesmus spp. (71.00 %), Coelastrum spp. (61.5 %), Scenedesmus spp.(52 %), Tribonema spp. (49.5 %), Protococcus spp. (58.5 %), Oocystis spp. (49.75 %) and Pediastrum spp. (49.5 %) and among blue green algae, Oscillatoria spp. (70.5 %), Anacystis spp. (61.5 %) and Phormidium spp. (46.5 %) showed high frequency of occurrence. The Gastrosomatic Index in males and females ranged from 0.23 to 0.93 and 0.25 to 1.1 respectively with no significant difference between males and females throughout the year (t test, p > 0.05). In addition to this, higher percentage of males and females showing low feeding intensity during all the months except in January indicted the species to be the poor feeder. However, the condition factor >1 suggested the species to be in good condition throughout the year in both males and females. Dominancy of detritus and pollution indicator genera Synedra spp., Anacystis spp., Ankistrodesmus spp., Melosira spp., Nitzchia spp., Oscillatoria spp., Phormidium spp. and Scenedesmus spp. suggested Nile tilapia to be the cleaner of the polluted river Yamuna.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
