Use of biometric findings of american paddlefis (Polyodon Spatula Walb.) for early sex diagnosis

Abstract

The studies of biometric features of selected paddlefishes aged 6+ years were performed. It was confirmed, that females are characterized by higher body weight above (13,6%), body length (Lt, Lc) as far as head length (C) and rostum length (R) in compare with males. Moreover, statistically significant differences were determined under absolute and relative levels of height of pectoral fins (hP) and ventral fins (hV). The correlation between head (C) and rostum length (R) as well as total (Lt) and body length (Lc) it was confirmed in studied fishe.
