Morphometric and length-weight relationships of the mussel Perna perna from the mamelles coast, Dakar, Senegal

This study focused on relationships between length-weights (length-total weight), sex ratio, size distribution, and the condition index of Perna perna. The length-weight relationship for the whole population of P. perna showed regression coefficients b=2.4467 an intercept with Y-axis, “a’ = 0.2565, and R² = 0.871. The allometric coefficient of the specimens sampled in this study is b
