Abstract:
The growth performance of skewband grunt
Hapalogenys nitens was studied on the base of 515 specimens from 1
+years old to 5
+years old colleted from net cages located in Zhelinwan Gulf in Raoping County, Guangdong Province. Biostatistics analysis showed that the relationship between body length and scale radius may be expressed as
L=175.17
r+227.22, relationship between body length and body weight as
W=0.0001
L2.8677, and relationship between body length and total length as
Lt=1.1736
Lb+3.6206. The von Bertallanffy growth curve parameters derived from the mentioned data are
L∞ =452.418 mm,
W∞ =4 315.455 g,
k=0.2799,
t0=-1.1869 years, turning point of growth in body weight
t0=2.738 years.
