Abstract

Abstract

In order to know the relationship between body mass and morphometric traits in the half smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis),body mass [BM(g)] and three morphometric traits,e.g.,total length [TL(cm)],body height [BH(cm)] and body width [BW(cm)] of 831 individuals of 12 months old Cynoglossus semilaevis were measured in this study. The best models for female and male individuals reflecting the relationship between each morphometric trait and body mass were obtained through model fitting screening,respectively. We established the regression equation with morphological traits as variables and body mass as the dependent variable and calculated the direct and indirect path coefficient and the coefficient of determination. The results showed that the best model fitted for female individuals was ŷ =0.004x^3.090 for TL-BM, ŷ =0.382x^2.983 for BH-BM and ŷ =61.912x^2.461 for BW-BM. And for male animals,they were ŷ =0.005x^3.003 for TL-BM, ŷ =0.300x^3.147 for BH-BM and ŷ =57.681x^2.156 for BW-BM. Path analysis showed that BH was the most predominant variable to affect BM (0.535) in females,while TL was the largest effect to BM (0.407) in males. Three morphological traits of female and male individuals were all extremely remarkable effects on the body mass. The multiple linear regression model equation were established as BM=-88.530+1.297TL+15.862BH+39.021BW for females,and BM=-71.579+2.587TL+7.351BH+35.595BW for males.
