Length-weight and length-length relationships of an established exotic mosquitofish population ( Gambusia holbrooki ), from Namak Lake basin in central Iran.

[摘要] Length–weight (LWR) and length–length (LLR) relationships were estimated for 119specimens of mosquitofish, Gambusia holbrooki, from Qom River, in the Namak Lake basin. Themaximum total length and weight of the studied population were 5.8 cm and 3.4 g, respectively. Thelength-weight parameter b for this species was 3.05 with regression coefficients (r2) 0.85. The LLR werehighly significant (r2 > 0.99).
