What is Comparison of growth performance and morphological variation among three carp species (Cyprinus carpio, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, and Labeo rohita) about?
This study was designed to analyse the water quality parameters and external morphological characters of three selected carp fish species i.e.,Cyprinus carpio, Labeo rohita,andHypothalamus molitrixfrom the Hub Dam of District Lasbela, Baluchistan. About Sixty specimens were collected for each carp fish species from April 2019 to March 2020, and their morphological characters were measured. The overall study of water quality parameters of Hub dam was found in the optimal range. The results of the Cube law revealed that the regression coefficientb-value was 0.60; p < 0.05), while weak (r < 0.50; p 0.70) was observed among TLvsFL and TLvsLD and moderate (r > 0.60; p 0.60) and weak (r < 0.50) types of correlation were seen in most morphometric and meristic characters ofH. molitrixandL. rohita, except few meristic characters ofL. rohitashow negative type relation with body growth (TL). This study was the first approach to examine the growth patterns of different carp species of Hub dam and observe their morphological variations among these carp species that have great potential value in systematics and fisheries management.
