COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE NARROW-CLAWED CRAYFISH GROWTH PATTERNS IN LAKE SOMINSKOE IN BELARUS AND IN LAKE SEVAN IN ARMENIA
Abstract
The growth rate of narrow-clawed crayfish in Lake Sominskoe (Belarus) and Lake Sevan (Armenia) is defined as the derivative of the Bertalanffy equation of growth. The average annual growth rate for the age group of 2–7 years was 12.0 ± 2.15 grams in Lake Sominskoe, 10.23 ± 2.62 grams in Lake Sevan. The difference between the average values was not statistically significant.
