The influence of some abiotic parameters on growth inclination in ascidian Halocynthia papillosa (Linnaeus, 1767) from the northern Adriatic sea (Croatia)
2010
This study investigated the relationships between growth orientation, body
height and depth on sampling sites. The survey was carried out during 2008 in
the area of the island Mali Losinj. A total of 46 specimens of Halocynthia
papillosa (Linnaeus, 1767) were analyzed. The growth orientation varied from
60° to 80° and body height was in the range of 20 mm to 110 mm. Pearson’s
correlation coefficient shows the positive correlation between growth
orientation and body height and the same correlation is determined between
depth and body height. The Spearman rank correlation coefficient shows a more
positive correlation neither between growth orientation and body height nor
growth orientation and depth.
