Effect of condition index on allometric relationships of clearance rate in Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck, 1819

Abstract

[ES] Las relaciones alométricas de la tasa de aclaramiento (TA) con la talla y TA con el peso muestran una considerable variabilidad en la literatura científica. Sin embargo, estas alometrías han sido empleadas de forma habitual como referencia para evaluar y criticar metodologías de trabajo y resultados experimentales. Se diseñaron dos experimentos para evaluar la incidencia del índice de condición sobre dichas relaciones alométricas en Mytilus galloprovincialis. Los resultados revelan un efecto significativo de este índice sobre la relación alométrica en la que el peso es la variable dependiente, lo cual limita el uso de dicha alometría a las condiciones particulares de cada experimento.

[EN] The allometric relationships between clearance rate (CR) and length and CR and weight show considerable variability in the literature. Nonetheless, they have been used routinely as references to evaluate and criticize methodologies and experimental results. Two experiments were designed to test the incidence of the condition index on these allometric relationships in Mytilus galloprovincialis. The results reveal a significant effect of this index on the allometric relationship in which weight was the dependent variable, which limits the use of this allometry to the particular conditions of each experiment.

This study was supported by the contract-project PROINSA, Code CSIC 2004448, Xunta de Galicia PGDIT03RMA13E’’, and ‘UE MABENE EVK3-2001-00144’. R. Filgueira was supported by a research personnel training grant from CSIC-Xunta de Galicia and Caixanova.
