Bioenergetics of Ompok pabda: A study on fingerlings, pre-adult, and adult stages in summer and winter seasons in Tripura, India
Author(s): Papri Das Sengupta and S Banik
Abstract: The bioenergetics of Ompok pabda, a commercially important freshwater catfish species, was studied across its life stages (Fingerlings, pre-adult, and adult) in the climatic conditions of Tripura, India. This study investigated the influence of seasonal variations in temperature and humidity on the energy allocation patterns, growth rates, and metabolic activities of
O. pabda. Results indicated significant differences in energy utilization between summer and winter, with higher metabolic rates observed during summer due to elevated temperatures. The findings provide insights into the adaptive strategies of
O. pabda to seasonal changes and offer implications for its aquaculture management in subtropical regions.
