Abstract
In this study, the relationship between age and sagittal otolith size (length, width and weight) of Barbus grypus Heckel, 1843 population from Keban Dam Lake have been examined. The correlation coefficients of females between the age and length, width and weight of average otolith have been determined as r = 0.96, r = 0.96 and r = 0.98, respectively. The correlation coefficients of males between the age and length, width and weight of average otolith have been determined as r = 0.97, r = 0.98 and r = 0.96, respectively. In addition the correlation coefficients of all populations between the age and length, width and weight of average otolith have been determined as r = 0.96, r = 0.98 and r = 0.97, respectively. As a result, a very high positive linear correlation has been detected between the age and otolith size
