Abstract: | This paper studies the properties of linear growth in sparsely rakered whitefish Coregonus lavaretus in the stretches of the large subarctic Imandra Lake, which are characterized by the diversity of habitat conditions and anthropogenic stress levels. The groups of sparsely rakered whitefish that are confined to different areas of the lake are marked out based on the properties of growth, trophic status, and anthropogenic stress intensity. A direct relationship of the linear growth in whitefish with the age of sexual development and trophic level of its habitats is found. |
