TABLE 2 in Early development of Brachyplatystoma juruense (Boulenger, 1898) (Siluriformes: Pimelodidae)

TABLE 2. Mathematical and statistical values of linear (L), quadratic (Q), and piecewise linear (S) regressions for the morphometric variables obtained in relation to head length and standard length in larvae and juveniles of Brachyplatystoma juruense. R 2 = Coefficient of determination; BM = Best model; BP = Breakpoint; n = Number of individuals. Values in bold indicate significance (p <0.05).
