Biological Parameters Of Cultivated Mytilus Galloprovincialis In Two Shellfish Farms In Bou Ismail Bay, Tipaza



Authors : Belmokhtar Ines . Guendouzi Yassine .

Abstract

This study aims to determine the morphometric and physiological parameters between Mytilus galloprovincialis mussels at two farms located in Bou Ismail Bay, Tipasa (Algeria). A sexual comparison between these parameters was taken into consideration. Results show dominance of females over males on both farms, with an overall sex ratio (F/M) of 2.65±0.16. A minorant growth (b<1) of the shell is recorded for all studied morphometric couples (H-L, W-L and W-H). Moreover, the mussels of the farm of Culte Mare are the largest according to their factor of shell size (FTC=96.94±12.69 cm3), On the other hand, the mussels of the farm of Ain Tagourait are the most filled by the flesh according to the condition index (IC=0.144±0.052).
