한국 서해산 살조개 Protothaca jedoensis의 연령과 성장 = Age and Growth of the Jedo Venus Clam, Protothaca jedoensis on the West Coast of Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Age and growth of the the Jedo venus clam, Protothaca jedoensis were investigated using samples from the subtidal zone of Boryeong, Chung- cheongnam-do, Korea from January to December, 1999. The relationship between shell height and ring radius in each group was expressed as a regression line. Therefore, it could be recognized that there is a correspondence in the formation of each ring. Based on the monthly variation of the marginal index of the shell, it was suggested that the annual ring mark formation occurred during the period of February to March once a year. The relationship between shell height (SH) and total weight (TW) was represented by the non-linear equation: TW = 0.0007 SH2.8919, and also in the relationship between shell length (SL) and shell height (SH), shell height (SH) and shell width (SW) were represented by the linear equations: SL=1.1067SH+1.778, SW=0.6758SH-0.9824. Growth curves for shell height and total weight fitted to the von Bertalanffy equation were expressed as:SHt = 81.546(1-e-0.176(t+0.381)), TWt = 227.65(1-e-0.176(t+0.381))2.8919.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

1999년 1월부터 12월까지 매월 충남 보령연안에 서식하는 살조개 총 2,591 개체를 채집하여 연령과 성장에 관하여 조사하였다. 살조개의 패각에 나타나는 윤문은 연 1회 형성되었으며, 윤문형성 시기는 2-3월 중인 것으로 조사되었다. 각고(SH)에 대한 각장 (SL), 각폭 (SW) 및 총중량 (TW) 사이의 상대성장 관계는 각각 SL = 1.1067 SH + 1.778, SW = 0.6758 SH - 0.9824, TW = 0.0007 SH2.8919이었고, 연령 (t) 에 대한 각고와 총중량으로부터 구한 von Bertalanffy 성장식은 SHt = 81.546(1-e-0.176(t+0.381)),TWt = 227.65(1-e-0.176(t+0.381))2.8919이었다.감사의 말씀이 논문은 군산대학교 수산과학연구소 연구비 (2003) 지원에 의해 연구된 결과입니다.
