چکیده

هدف از این مطالعه، بررسی تنوع  زیستی روتیفرهای پلانکتونیک در فصول  تابستان و زمستان 1393 در مصب رودخانه بهمنشیر برحسب گرادیان شوری افقی بود. نمونه ­برداری از 6 ایستگاه  با استفاده از تور پلانکتون­ گیری با اندازه چشمه 100 میکرون انجام گردید. در این بررسی 14 گونه روتیفر زئوپلانکتونی متعلق به یک راسته و 3 خانواده و 6 جنس شناسایی شد. گونه­ های Brachionusrotundiformis و B.plicatilis در تمامی ایستگاه ­ها غالب بودند. بیش ­ترین همبستگی معنی ­دار منفی بین همبستگی روتیفرها با هدایت الکتریکی (0/94-) و شوری (0/93-)  بود (0/05>p). به ­طوری­ که در مسیر ایستگاه­ های رودخانه­ ای به سمت ایستگاه­ های مصبی با افزایش شوری، ترکیب و تنوع گونه­ ای به ­شدت دچار تغییر شد. بیش ­ترین میانگین فراوانی در فصل تابستان و در ایستگاه 1 به ­میزان 1362/1 فرد در متر مکعب به ­دست آمد و در ایستگاه  6 زمستان نیز تقریباً هیچ­ گونه روتیفری مشاهده نشد. بیش ­ترین میزان شاخص تنوع زیستی شانون- وینر در فصل تابستان به ­میزان 1/52 و بیش ­ترین شاخص غالبیت سیمپسون در فصل زمستان به ­مقدار 0/4 محاسبه شد. نتایج حاصل از این تحقیق نشان داد که شوری موثرترین فاکتور بر تنوع و تراکم  رودخانه بهمنشیر است.

چکیده [English]

The present study aimed at evaluating the biodiversity of planktonic rotifers in a horizontal salinity gradient in both summer and winter 2014  at the  Bahmanshir river estuary. Planktonic rotifers were sampled using 100 μm mesh size plankton net from six stations with three replications. In this study, 14 species of rotifers belong to 6 genera and 3 families were identified. The species Brachionus rotundiformis and  B. plicatilis were dominant at all stations. Environmental factors such as temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen were also measured. The results of Spearman correlation test showed that the highest negative relationship between electrical conductivity and salinity  with -0.94 and -0.93 correlation coefficient respectively with abundance of rotifers (P<0/05). So along the salinity gradient toward the stuary mouth species structure was changed  and speceies richness decreased. Results indicate that differences in salinity  between stations of the  river  account for differences in the species composition and diversity. The highest abundance of rotifers  was found in summer and in station 1 (1362.1 per cubic meter) and In the winter there were  no rotifers observed in station 6. Maximum amounts of Shannon- Weaner index of diversity in summer and dominance index of Simpson were estimated in summer and winter with amount of 1.52 and 0.4 respectively. The results of this study showed that salinity is the most influential factor on the diversity and density of rotifers in the Bahmanshir river.
