Abstract
This study was conducted to determine concentration of lead (Pb) in the liver of flathead (Platycephalus indicus) in Minab, Qeshm Island and Khamir Port in the Persian Gulf during winter and summer (n= 30). 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.

Abstract
Aquaculture is one of the largest food production industries in the world. There are more than 400 species of fish species in the Persian Gulf; many of them are eaten as food. Electronic trade of aquatic animals can provide suitable employment opportunities in the fisheries sector as a new field. The purpose of this study was to investigate the process of aquaculture e-commerce in Bandar Abbas city. The statistical society were the active technology companies in the field of e-commerce, selling aquatic animals at the Growth Center of Hormozgan Science and Technology Park. The present study was conducted periodically in 2017 and the data-gathering tool was a questionnaire. The results showed that the largest share of fish sales was62.3%). Also, the fish species diversity was high by the companies surveyed, and the largest share of the sales were fish from families Scombridae (20.3%) and Serranidae (20%). There is a dynamic and global market that can be a turning point and an opportunity to improve the performance and progress of companies. In addition, surveys showed that electronic trade and online sale of aquatic animals in Hormozgan province could have a significant role in improving entrepreneurship in the province.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to identify the challenges and opportunities in the aquaculture industry in the southern regions of Iran. We used statistics and information published by the Iranian Fisheries Organization and interviews with aquaculture industry owners and their challenges with focusing on their impact on rural poverty and development. The results showed six challenges including the weakness in the management and the lack of competence and politicization of specialized activities at high levels, the mismatch of organizations that operate in protecting aquaculture, and the weakness of education and promotion of aquaculture. In addition, other challenges are the traditional markets and lack of marketing, the lack of infrastructure required by the government with a national perspective and regional development, and the lack of integration of university-organizations related and manufacturers. In addition, there were eight opportunities including the young age of the fisheries industry in Iran, the increased demand for fisheries products, the abundance of coastal waters for aquaculture in southern Iran, the possibility of using knowledge of aquatic abroad, the importance of the Persian Gulf as the main area located on the east-west corridor, human and specialist's resources, strategic characteristics, creation of export-based employment and regional development. Today, aquaculture is very beneficial in terms of not only employment and livelihood, but in addition to other comparative advantages for which it is fully justified as an enterprise and unit of production that can produce commercially available goods to the consumer market. This issue, especially in the southern provinces of the country and especially Hormozgan province, which has considerable potential in this field, is in the absence and justification of industrial activities as a prospect of development of the province.

Abstract
The fishery industry in Hormozgan province has a long history and consists a large part of the economy of this province. The industry, with its many actors, including universities, research centers, small and medium-sized companies, has the potential to be explored as an innovation ecosystem. The concept of innovation ecosystems has been widely considered in recent years and is considered an essential component for enhancing the innovation and economic capacity of enterprises, industries, regions, and nations. Therefore, in the present study, to analyze the innovation ecosystem of the fisheries industry, first, a conceptual model is developed using the literature. Then, with the help of a qualitative research approach, using the content analysis of in-depth and semi-structured interviews with experts in the province's fisheries industry, we identify the actors and the relationships between them and analyze the innovation ecosystem of this industry. Finally, policy proposals are presented to strengthen the ecosystem.
