Abstrakt: The knowledge of fish characters for meat production and the correlations among them presents a major importance. Ineu carp breed can have a significant contribution by providing a high quality protein to Romanian and other consumers also. The increased human population requires a larger production of food and aquaculture production must meet this need. The study was based on the analysis of morphologic characters of descendants of five Ineu carp females. The studied characters were weight, body depth and standard length; each descendent being measured and weighed over a period of three years. The Fisher test was used to check variance homogeneity, and Pearson correlation coefficient was used to verify the interdependence of the three characters. Regarding the homogeneity of the variance, no significant differences were found (P ≥ 0.05). According to the results, the correlation between the weight and the body depth was the highest, namely 0.99; 0.95 between weight and standard length and 0.96 between standard length and body depth. In conclusion, the three production characters are strongly correlated and have a major influence on meat production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
