Length-weight relationships of Johnius coitor (Hamilton, 1822), Osteobrama cotio (Hamilton, 1822), and Gonialosa manmina (Hamilton, 1822), from the River Ganga, India

Abstract: The relationship between length and weight of three fish species Johnius coitor (Family Sciaenidae), Osteobrama cotio (Family Cyprinidae) and Gonialosa manmina (Family Clupeidae) unknown to Fishbase were studied from the Allahabad waters of the river Ganga in India. Fishes were captured bi‐monthly from March 2017 to June 2018 using gill nets and cast nets of various mesh sizes. The b values determined from length‐weight relationships (LWRs) were 3.246, 3.373 and 3.024 for J. coitor, O. cotio and G. manmina, re… Show more

“…Previous recorded b value of A. atropos from India (2.859), China (3.021) and Pakistan (2.869) were lower than our results (Qamar & Panhwar, 2018; Reuben et al., 1992; Xu et al., 1994). Our estimated b value (2.589) for J. coitor was lower than previous finding (3.246) from the Ganga river, India (Verma et al., 2018) but higher than the study of Basumatary et al. (2017).…”

“…Our findings support the findings reported by Baitha et al (2018), who noticed positive allometric growth (3.55) in O. cotio for both sexes. Verma et al (2018) and Muhammad et al (2016) validated positive allometric growth in O. cotio, which was accompanied by a slightly larger regression coefficient than our studies. A few of the variables that impact the value of a regression coefficient include the fish's sex and maturity, the physicochemical properties of the water, the abundance of food, and the surrounding circumstances.…”

“…Figure 5. Four species showed allometric negative growth, namely: Fourfinger threadfin, Coitor croaker, Circumspect goby and Largetooth flounder [16] Growth pattern of Kuro, Eleuthronema tetradactylum at estuarine of Kumbe River in Merauke District was allometric positive [22], as well growth pattern of Johnius coitor was reported with a value of "b" is 3.246 [23], also growth pattern of Pseudorhombus arsius reported with a value of "b" is 3.535 [24]; meanwhile in this present study growth pattern of Eleuthronema tetradactylum, Johnius coitor and Pseudorhombus arsius were allometric negative or b < 3. This condition can be happen if the water quality in (a) the Kumber river estuary, Papua, Indonesia; (b) the River Ganga, India; (c) Korangi-Phitti Creek area, Indus delta, northern Arabian Sea were more supporting to fish growth, than in Pabean Bay, west Java, Indonesia.…”
