Length-Weight Relationship and Relative Condition Factor of Coilia Dussumieri (Cuv. & Val.) from Neretic Waters off the Mumbai Coast
Abstract: Morphometric studies are essential to determine the growth form and growth rate of a species; which is very much important for proper exploitation and management of the population of a species. The length-weight relationship & relative condition factor were computed for the Anchovy Coilia dussumieri (Cuv. & Val. ). A total of 154 individuals (124 males & 30 females) were used for the study. The b value shows significant correlation between length & weight of fish. The values obtained for mean weight by sex show that females were significantly (P
