AB - This study was aimed to investigate the some growth properties
of Acanthobrama marmid Heckel, 1843 population in Uzuncayir Dam Lake
(Tunceli/Turkey) between May 2011 to September 2012. A total of 604 A. marmid
samples (340 males and 264 females) were caught from Uzuncayir Dam Lake; the
age composition of the specimens ranged between 1-9 years. The overall sex ratio
(females/males) was 1:0.78. Total lengths of specimens ranged from 8.80-27.80
cm and weights ranged from 6.20-182.00 g. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters
were L∞ = 28.25 cm, K = 0.26 year-1 and t0 = 0.90
year for males and L∞ = 28.49 cm, K = 0.23 year-1 and t0
= 1.24 year for females. The length-weight relationship was found as W
= 0.009xTL3.009 in males and W = 0.012xTL2.926 in females.
The growth performance index (Φ') values of males, females and all samples
were 2.317, 2.271 and 2.301, respectively. The condition factor values varied
between 0.61-1.30 for entire population.
