115 samples of Labeo calbasu ranged 8.017.9cm
length with mean11.90±1.96 and 4.968.5g weight with mean
22.25±12.54 from the River Chenab, Southern Punjab, Pakistan were
analyzed to investigate lengthweight relationships (LWR) of fish in
relation to condition factor (K). Standard length (SL), fork length
(FL), head length (HL) head width (HW), body girth (BG), dorsal fin
length (DFL), dorsal fin base (DFB), pectoral fin length (PcFL),
pelvic fin length (PvFL) and anal fin length (AFL) are found to be
highly correlated with increasing total length and wet body weight (r
> 0.500). Wet body weight has positive (r0.540) and total length
has no correlation (r0.344) with calculated Condition factor (K).
The slope “b" in the relationship is 3.27 and intercepts 2.2258.
