The group of length of 14-16 cm accounted the largest percentage 40.52% of total fishing (1549) in September. The value of b=2.99 means that the growth was isometric. The condition factor ranged between 0.73-2.67 with average of 1.22. Condition factor differed according to sex and length. Sex ratio (male: female) tended to female 1:1.57. The highest gonadosomatic index for female was 7.17 and for male was 2.69 in June and the spawning period extended from May and June until August. The smallest length of a mature male reached 13.1 cm and in a mature female was 19.3 cm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Growth, Reproduction, <em>Cyprinion macrostomum<\/em>, Tigris river, Iraq.<\/p>\n<p>Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/v6n3p12.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ameer Suood Alwan Hamad*(1) and Nehad Khorsheed Wahab(2) (1).
