ABSTRACT

Fifty fresh water specimens of Singhari, (Sperata sarwari) ranging in total length from 24.9 - 93.7 cm and body weight from 66 - 4824 g were sampled, to study the parameters of weight-length and condition factor relationship from Mangla Lake Pakistan. Log transformed regression were used to test the growth. The value of growth coefficient (b = 3.57) indicates allometric growth in the studied specimens. Condition factor increases with increasing length or weight. The predictive equation can be used to estimate parameters investigated with a fair amount of accuracy within the size range studies. The growth is considered in terms of increase in Formatted: Right: 0 pt, Don't
