Abstract
The length-weight relationship and condition factor of Barbonymus gonionotus from Nyaung Kaing In, Sagaing Division, Myanmar were carried out from October, 2016 to February, 2017. A total of 100 specimens were selected randomly during the study period. The length-weight relationship was calculated by using the regression analysis. The results showed that the average (b) values of all samples were 3.20 indicating the positive allometric pattern. The average condition factor (K) was 2.9 and the average correlation coefficient (r) was 0.99. Therefore this result indicated that there was a good correlation between length and weight of the fish. Moreover, the condition factor (K) value greater than 1 indicated good condition of the fish inhibiting the aquatic ecosystem is conducive for the optimum growth of this fish.
