dc.description.abstractTotal sample was divided into two groups based on their length. Length-weight equations, condition factor (K) and relative condition factor (Kn) of these two groups are presented in Table 2. Le Cren (1951) and Jhingran (1972) observed that changes in the condition value with the increase in length may yield evidence concerning the size at first maturity. In its variation with the increasing length, the ‘K’ value (1.30) in B. dario showed a peak at length group II (70-90 mm) whereas ‘K’ value is lower viz., 1.23 in length group I (50-70 mm). From this, it canbe indicated that middle age group has better condition factor. Many researchers (Verghese, 1961; Mortuza & Rahman, 2006; Saha et al., 2009; Dars et al., 2010) have also observed higher ‘Kn’ values in middle age group of freshwater and marine species. In case of B. dario, the ‘Kn’ value is less than 1 indicating general well being of the fish; its relative robustness, sustainability of habitat and to some extent the size at first maturity and peak period of spawning (Goswami et al., 2008).en_US
