Concentration of lead was measured using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS). The results showed that, there were significant differences between stations for the concentration of lead in liver of P. indicus in winter and summer (P<0.05). There were not significant differences between concentration of lead in liver of males and females (P> 0.05). The results showed that, marine pollution (aquaculture, urban and industrial activities) in different area in the Persian Gulf and seasons are effective factors on bioaccumulation of lead in P. indicus. }, URL = {http://jae.hormozgan.ac.ir/article-1-176-en.html}, eprint = {http://jae.hormozgan.ac.ir/article-1-176-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Aquatic Ecology}, doi = {}, year = {2016} }
