Abstract

Asya kedi balığı Mystus vittatus Hindistan'da çok popüler bir yiyecek ve süs balığıdır. Bu balığın boy-ağırlık ilişkileri ve kondisyon faktörleri balıkçılık yönetiminde önemli bir bileşendir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Mystus vittatus'un (Hamilton, 1822) boy, ağırlık, kondisyon faktörü (K), nispi kondisyon faktörü (Kn) ve modifiye kondisyon faktörü arasındaki ilişkileri araştırmaktır. Çalışma özellikle iki farklı habitatta (doğal habitat ve biyoyumak sistemi) büyüme kalıpları, üretkenlik, stoklar ve korumadaki cinsiyete dayalı farklılıkları analiz etmeyi odaklamaktadır. Bulgulara göre tür öngörülen küp yasasına tam olarak uymamış ve her iki habitatta da allometrik büyüme göstermiştir. "b" değeri 2,72 ile 3,12 arasında, kondisyon faktörü (K) 0,587-1,50 arasında, modifiye kondisyon faktörü (Kn) 0,54-2,26 arasında ve nispi kondisyon faktörü 0,71-1,65 arasında değişmektedir. Regresyon parametresi (b), kondisyon faktörü (K) ve nispi kondisyon faktörü (Kn) açısından en yüksek ortalama değerler doğal habitatlarda bulunmuştur. İki farklı habitattaki erkek, dişi ve tüm cinsiyetler için gözlenen R2 değerleri, ağırlık ve boy arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Korelasyon analizi cinsiyet, boy, ağırlık, kondisyon faktörü ve nispi kondisyon faktörü arasında bazı pozitif ve negatif anlamlı ilişkileri göstermiştir. Buna bağlı olarak, iki farklı habitatta kondisyon faktörü, nispi kondisyon faktörü, boy ve ağırlık arasında önemli bir ilişki bulunmuştur ve bu aynı habitatta erkek ve dişi arasında farklılık göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla bu bulgu, Mystus vittatus'un hem doğal hem de biyoyumak sisteminde uzun vadeli strateji geliştirilmesinde balıkçılık yöneticilerine yardımcı olacaktır.

Abstract

The Asian catfish Mystus vittatus is very popular food and ornamental fish in India. Length- weight relationships and condition factors of this fish are crucial component in fishery managements. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationships between the length, weight, condition factor (K), relative condition factor (Kn) and modified condition factor of Mystus vittatus (Hamilton, 1822). The study is particularly focus on analysing the sex wise variations in growth patterns, productivity, stocks, and conservation in two different habitats, natural habitat and biofloc system. The findings show that the species did not strictly follow the predicted cube law and showed allometric growth patterns in both habitats. The "b" value varies from 2.72 to 3.12, the condition factor (K) ranges from 0.587-1.50, modified condition factor ranges 0.54-2.26 and relative condition factor (Kn) ranges from 0.71-1.65. Natural habitats had the highest mean values for the regression parameter (b), condition factor (K), and relative condition factor (Kn). For male, female, and combined sexes in two different habitats, the R2 values show a statistically significant relationship between weight and length. The correlation analysis indicates some positive and negative significant relationships among sex, length, weight, condition factor, and relative condition factor. Therefore, there is significant relationship between condition factor, relative condition factor length, weight in two different habitats and it varies between male and female within same habitat. Thus, this finding will help to fishery managers for long term strategy development of Mystus vittatus in both natural as well as biofloc system.
