Relation Between Water Quality and Protein Content of Chironomid Larvae

Relation Between Water Quality and Protein Content of Chironomid Larvae

Chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae) are considered as a good protein source for fish culture. In this communication an assessment of the protein content of the chironomid larvae occurring in ponds has been made with reference to the limnological parameters. The total body protein (TBP) of chironomid...

Zusammenfassung:Chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae) are considered as a good protein source for fish culture. In this communication an assessment of the protein content of the chironomid larvae occurring in ponds has been made with reference to the limnological parameters. The total body protein (TBP) of chironomid larvae was positively correlated ( p
