Summary: | Relationships between fecundity (thousands) and total length (cm), F = 1.155 × 10-7 × L4.598 and fecundity (thousands) and round weight (g) (F = 2.539 × 10-4 × W1.439) were established for Greenland halibut in the Northeast Atlantic, based on a total of 95 ovaries collected near the Bear Island in the Barents Sea, in September 1996. The potential fecun-dity ranged from 6 800 to 70 500 eggs per female. The Greenland halibut were in the total length range 48–80 cm. The Greenland halibut were maturing with ovaries containing vitellogenic oocyte sized about 2–4 mm in diameter, visual to the naked eye. |
