Length–weight relationships and condition factors of wild, cultured, and cultured loose-shell affected Penaeus monodon (2,609 specimens total) were studied from March to August 2007. The regression equation for healthy cultured shrimps was log W = −1.811 + 2.721 log L (r2 = 0.71); log W = −1.444 + 2...
