Abstract
This study was carried out to determine the population parameters of Garra rufa in Merzimen Stream, Euphrates River Basin between May and November 2013. A total of 365 specimens were caught by electro shocker. The age of the sampled specimens ranged from 0 to V age groups. Total length and weight varied from 2.9 to 16.8 cm with a mean of 9.67±3.52 cm and 0.21 to 69.27 g with a mean of 15.69±14.75 g, respectively. The length-weight relationship was obtained as W=0.0124L2.9888 and the b value indicated the isometric growth. Estimated population parameters were calculated as L∞: 19.98 cm, k: 0.275, t0: -1.157. Fulton’s condition factor and growth performance index were estimated as K: 1.24 and Φꞌ: 2.04. Total (Z), natural (M), and fishing (F) mortalities and the exploitation rate (E) were estimated 0.452, 0.295, 0.156, and 0.347, respectively.

Merzimen Çayı (Fırat Havzası) Garra rufa (Heckel, 1843) Popülasyonuna Ait Yaş ve Büyüme Parametreleri
Abstract
Bu çalışma Merzimen Çayı Garra rufa popülasyonuna ait populasyon dinamiği parametrelerini belirlenmesi amacıyla Mayıs-Kasım 2013 tarihleri arasında yürütülmüştür. Elektroşok kullanılarak toplam 365 örnek yakalanmıştır. Yakalanan bireylerin yaşları 0 ile V. yaş grupları arasındadır. İncelenen bireylerin boy değerlerinin 2,9-16,8 cm ve ağırlık değerlerinin ise 0,21-69,27 g arasında değişim gösterdiği belirlenmiş olup ortalama total boy ve ağırlık değerleri sırasıyla 9,67±3,52 cm ve 15,69±14,75 g olarak hesaplanmıştır. Boy-ağırlık ilişkisi W=0,0124L2,9888 olarak belirlenmiş olup izometrik büyüme özelliği sergilediği görülmüştür. Diğer populasyon değişkenleri ise L∞: 19,98 cm, k: 0,275 ve t0: -1,157 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Fulton’un kondisyon faktörü ve büyüme performans endeksi K: 1,24 ve Φꞌ: 2,04 olarak tahmin edilmiştir. Toplam (Z), doğal (M) ve balıkçılık (F) nedeniyle olan ölüm oranları ve stoktan yararlanma düzeyi (E) sırasıyla 0,452, 0,295, 0,156 ve 0,347 olarak hesaplanmıştır.
