A.A. Zotin, N.D. Ozerniyk. Peculiarities of growth and oxygen consumption of edible mussels Mytilus edulis L. in the White Sea // The study, sustainable use and conservation of natural resources od the White sea. Proceedings of the IXth international conference October, 11-14, 2004, Petrozavodsk, Karelia, Russia, 2005. Pp. 125-127

Growth of four populations of edible mussels Mytilus edulis inhabiting the White Sea was studied. Shell length, total weight, weight of soft tissues, and shell weight were measured and coefficients of allometric relations between parameters calculated. The changes in growth parameters with age were approximated by Bertalanffi's growth equation. The coefficients of Bertalanffi's equation differed for different mussel populations. These differences are believed to be related to peculiarities of hydrological conditions in mussel habitats.
