Samsun İli (Türkiye)’ndeki dört lentik habitattan örneklenen gümüşi havuz balığının (Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782)) vücut uzunluğu ile otolit ölçümlerinin ilişkilerinde alansal varyasyon

Öz

Bu çalışma, Samsun İli (Türkiye)’ndeki dört gümüşi havuz balığı, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782) popülasyonu (Altınkaya Baraj Gölü, Bafra Balık Gölleri, Ladik Gölü ve Simenit Gölü) için elde edilen lagenar otolit (asteriskus) boyutları-toplam uzunluk ilişkilerindeki alansal değişkenliği ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Her popülasyon için boy ve ağırlık ilişkisi de tanımlanmıştır. Örnekler, Şubat 2017 ile Mart 2018 arasında farklı dönemlerde ticari balıkçılardan temin edilmiştir. Her bir otolitin uzunluğu, yüksekliği ve ağırlığı belirlenmiştir. Otolit ve balık büyümesi arasındaki allometrik ilişkileri tanımlamak için üssel bir fonksiyon kullanılmıştır. Her bir örnekleme alanında sağ ve sol otolitler için elde edilen regresyonların eğimleri önemli bir farklılık göstermemiştir. Tüm ilişkiler istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmuştur (P<0,001). Belirleme katsayıları (r²) 0,61 ile 0,95 ve yüzde tahmin hatasının ortalama değerleri 3,10 ile 7,45 arasında değişmiştir. ANCOVA testi, üç otolit değişkeni için regresyon eğimlerinde önemli alansal farklılıklar tespit etmiştir. Bulgularımız otolit gelişiminin somatik büyümeyi yansıttığını, ancak bu durumun örnekleme alanına göre değişiklik gösterdiğini ortaya koymuştur.

Spatial variation in relationships of otolith measurements with body length of Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782) collected from four lentic habitats in Samsun Province, Türkiye

Abstract

This study aimed to disclose the spatial variability in the lagenar otolith (asteriscus) dimensions-total length relationships generated for four Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782) populations (Altınkaya Dam Lake, Bafra Fish Lakes, Lake Ladik and Lake Simenit) in Samsun Province, Türkiye. Relationship between length and weight of the fish was also described for each population. Samples were obtained from commercial fishermen in different periods between February 2017 and March 2018. The length, height, and weight of each otolith were determined. A non-linear function was used to define allometric relationships between asteriscus measurements and body size. The slopes of the regressions acquired for the right and left otoliths at each sampling site did not show any significant difference. All of the relationships were found to be statistically significant (P<0.001). The r² values ranged from 0.61 to 0.95, and the mean values of the percent prediction error varied from 3.10 to 7.45. The ANCOVA test determined significant spatial differences in regression slopes for the three otolith variables. Our findings revealed that otolith development reflected somatic growth, but this varied by sampling area.
