LENGTH-WEIGHT RELATIONSHIP AND CONDITION FACTOR OF SOME COMMERCIAL FISH SPECIES FROM KYAIKKHAMI FISH LANDING CENTER, MON COASTAL AREA
Abstract
- The study was conducted to analyze the length-weight relationship and condition factor of some commercial fish species from Kyaikkhami Fish Landing Center, Mon Coastal Area during June, 2018 to March, 2019. In present study period, a total of 873 fish species in size ranging from 20.2cm to 49cm for Tenualosa ilisha, from 20.6cm to 49.3cm for Tenualosa toli, from 24.8cm to 45.9cm for Scomberomorus guttatus and from 16.5cm to 30cm for Setipinna tenuifilis was recorded. In present findings, the exponential forms of equations derived between total length and total weight for T. toli was W=0.1223TL2.2272 (r=0.9262), for T. ilisha was W=0.0094TL3.001 (r=0.9582), for S. guttatus was W=0.138TL2.1396 (r=0.9161) and for S. tenuifilis was W=0.138TL2.1396 (r=0.9161). The ‘b’ values of length-weight relationship of T. toli, S. guttatus and S. tenuifilis were observed to be 2.2272, 2.1396 and 1.1262 indicating negative allometric on species. Otherwise T. ilisha was 3 which indicated isometric in nature. Moreover, the mean condition factor of all of fish species was 0.95±0.16, 0.95±0.12, 0.69±0.13 and 1.09±0.43, indicating that its growth has been more or less normal (k<1or k>1).
