present study describes the length-weight (lwr) and length-length (llr) relationships of a freshwater catfish eutropiichthyes vacha hamilton from indus river, sindh, pakistan. a total of 281 specimen of e. vacha were collected from fisherman?s catch from february 2005 to january 2006, are used for this study. the parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship were calculated as w= alb are...

the present study describes the length-weight relationship (lwr), length-length relationship (llr) and condition factor of the wild population of the shrimp macrobrachium macrobrachion from the rivers of côte d’ivoire (west africa). samples were randomly collected from small-scale shrimp fisheries using bamboo traps. of the thirteen analyzed morphometrics characters, only the second pleura widt...

BACKGROUND Weight and length at birth (which represent fetal growth) and weight and length or height gain during childhood (which potentially represent catch-up growth) may be related to later health outcomes. However, methods for the assessment of such relations are complex and underdeveloped. OBJECTIVES We aimed to describe childhood weight and length or height trajectories and to relate th...

Abstract Background The present study was performed to determine carapace length–body weight relationship of Charybdis callianassa. In fisheries biology, length–weight relationships are important as they allow for the calculation, by creating a mathematical equation between two, total fish in particular group fish. Such information is helpful fishery scientists research dynamics development and...

length weight relationships of vimba vimba persa were studied. for this purpose 174 fish samples were collected by gill nets, beach seine and purse seine from march through june 2008 at two guilan fisheries catch stations of guilan located in anzali- kiyashahr regions. samples were immediately transferred to the laboratory of fish biology at university of guilan for further analyses. length, we...

thirty-two exclusive and twenty-seven non-exclusively breast-fed infants were followed-up from birth to 4 months of age in a maternity hospital, with a rooming-in program. face to face bf education was given to mothers in two groups after delivery and also during 4 months post-partum. body weight (wt ), length (l) and head circumference (hc) of the infants were measured at monthly intervals, an...
