Abstract

Length-weight relationship and relative condition in Ompok bimaculatus
were studied. Analysis of covariance of the regressions for the two sexes showed
no significant difference in slopes. The value of the exponent indicated a deviation
from the cube law. The point of inflexion in the relative condition plotted
on a lengthwise basis gave the size at first maturity, especially in males. Seasonal
variations in the condition was found to be influenced by the spawning cycle.
