Fecundity and GSI of Mourala, Amblypharyngodon mola (Hamilton-Buchanan, 1822) from South Bengal district of West Bengal
Author(s): M Pal and BK Mahapatra
Abstract: Mature specimensof
Amblypharyngodon mola ranging from 2.13 g to 4.46 g and 59 mm to 78 mm were analysed. Fecundity varies from 940 to 7210 and the fecundity factor ranged from 429.65 to 2281.65. The mathematical relationship of fecundity with fish length, fish weight, ovary weight and ovary length were calculated. The mathematical relationship of fish weight-ovary weight, fish length-ovary length and fish weight-ovary length was also carried out. The computed relationships were found to be highly significant especially between fecundity and ovary weight (r=0.890,
p<0.01). The GSI of
A. mola varies from 1.88 to 20.42, lowest value was recorded in January and maximum GSI was recorded in June and other in November
i.e., it breeds twice in a year.
