Abstract:
We studied the activities of digestive enzymes responsible for the digestion of food carbohydrate and protein components in plant-eating fish at various stages of larval development. The activities of all digestive enzymes tend to rise during larval development. Species specific features of the alimentary canal functioning have been described.
