Abstract
Length–weight relations of 24 fish species (Actinopterygii) from Hirakud Reservoir, Odisha State of India
Highlights
In fish biology, length and weight are two basic morphological traits at the individual as well as at the population level
Length–weight relations were estimated for 24 fish species sampled from the Hirakud Reservoir (Odisha State, India): Salmostoma bacaila (Hamilton, 1822); Salmostoma phulo (Hamilton, 1822); Labeo rohita (Hamilton, 1822); Labeo bata (Hamilton, 1822); Cirrhinus reba (Hamilton, 1822); Labeo calbasu (Hamilton, 1822); Puntius sophore (Hamilton, 1822); Puntius chola (Hamilton, 1822); Pethia ticto (Hamilton, 1822); Systomus sarana (Hamilton, 1822); Pethia phutunio (Hamilton, 1822); Osteobrama cotio (Hamilton, 1822); Amblypharyngodon mola (Hamilton, 1822); Rasbora rasbora (Hamilton, 1822); Parambassis ranga (Hamilton, 1822); Parambassis lala (Hamilton, 1822); Channa punctata (Bloch, 1793); Macrognathus pancalus (Hamilton, 1822); Notopterus notopterus (Pallas, 1769); Chanda nama (Hamilton, 1822); Xenentodon cancila (Hamilton, 1822); Glossogobius giuris (Hamilton, 1822); Ompok bimaculatus (Bloch, 1794); Gudusia chapra (Hamilton, 1822)
The weight of fishes is closely related to their length and it determines whether somatic growth was isometric or allometric (Le Cren 1951, Froese 2006, Froese et al 2011)
