Effect of hydrogen sulphide on liver somatic index and Fulton's condition factor in Mystus nemurus

The growth rate and liver somatic index were significantly (P<0.05) lower in Mystus nemurus exposed to hydrogen sulphide compared to controls. These differences increased with corresponding increases in hydrogen sulphide concentrations. No significant differences (P>0.05) in Fulton's cond...
