长江口鮻矢耳石形态特征及质量与年龄的关系
Sagittal otolith morphology and the relationship between its mass and the age of Liza haematocheila in the Yangtze Estuary,China
摘要
Abstract
To examine the relationship of morphological characters of sagittal otolith and the age of Liza haematocheila in the Yangtze Estuary,we analyzed the morphological parameters of 324 pairs of otoliths extracted from 358 L. haematocheila specimens from the Yangtze Estuary in February to June of 2017. The results showed that sagittal otolith had rostrum,antirostrum and obvious central notch. The size and shape of sagittal otolith significantly changed with their growth,from regular melon seeds shape outline to long narrow leaf shape and increasing irregular wavy outline. The average density of sagittal otolith was 1.52 mg·mm-2. The average rectangularity was 0.68. The length of sagittal otolith was 0.021%-0.047% of entire body length (BL) ,the width was 0.009%-0.021% of entire BL,and the mass was 0.045‰-0.731‰ of the entire body mass (BM). Otolith length (OL) ,otolith width (OW) and otolith mass (OM) were all significantly related to the BL,with the determination coefficient for OW and OM model being the highest (R2 = 0.928). The relationship between OM and BL was described best by exponential regression: OM = 0. 0009BL1.8737(R2 = 0.967). The relationships between OM and age (A) ,BL and A were well fitted by multinomial regressions,respectively: OM = 2. 9262A2 + 4. 8437A + 2. 1894 (R2 = 0. 847) ,BL = - 3. 2248A2 +102.54A + 38. 373 (R2 = 0. 858). In addition,OM was linearly correlated with A. The estimated otolith's ages from the model did not significantly variate from the real ages counting from annulus counts. Therefore,OM could be an effective parameter for the age estimation of L. haematocheila.关键词
