Abstract
This study estimated the length–weight relationships (LWRs) and length–length relationships (LLRs) for 6 fish species in the middle Yangtze River basin and its adjacent lakes (Ochetobius elongatus (Kner 1867), Rhinogobio cylindricus (Günther 1888), Hemibagrus macropterus (Bleeker 1870), Pseudobagrus albomarginatus (Rendahl 1928), Siniperca knerii (Garman 1912), and Coreosiniperca roulei (Wu 1930)). All fish specimens were seasonally collected through scientific research monitoring of fishery resources from May 2020 to June 2023. A triple gillnet (with a mesh size of 20–30 mm, a height of 2.0–4.0 m, and a length of 30–50 m) was employed for the capture. The LWRs and LLRs of all specimens were highly significant (p < 0.05), featuring high correlation coefficients (r2 ≥ 0.9511). These findings not only enriched the data in FishBase but also offered supplementary references for the management of the Yangtze River during its fishing ban period.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Applied Ichthyology publishes articles of international repute on ichthyology, aquaculture, and marine fisheries; ichthyopathology and ichthyoimmunology; environmental toxicology using fishes as test organisms; basic research on fishery management; and aspects of integrated coastal zone management in relation to fisheries and aquaculture. Emphasis is placed on the application of scientific research findings, while special consideration is given to ichthyological problems occurring in developing countries. Article formats include original articles, review articles, short communications and technical reports.
