LENGTH-WEIGHT RELATIONSHIP AND RELATIVE CONDITION IN TRICHIURUS LEPTURUS LINNAEUS
2011
Narasimham, K A
The length-weight relationship and the relative condition in the ribbon fish Trichiuruslepturus were studied in 185 males in the size range 355-960 mm and 143 femalesin the size range 352-1090 mm collected during the period August 1966 to May 1969.Analysis of covariance of the two regressions showed no significant difference in theslopes. Apparently the sexual cycle does not seem to affect the relative condition of thefish, at least directly, while high intensity of feeding influences the K„ There is a suddenfall in the value of relative condition at 625 mm fish length, and maturity studies indicatethat over 90% of fish attained sexual maturity at this length.
