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

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...

description 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.
