Selective biochemical studies in a freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium nobilli(Crustecea: Palaemodinae)
Calcium and phosphorous contents of abdomen and cheliped muscles of juvenile, maleand female Macrobrchium nobilii were determined from field collected samples. In allthe three groups calcium concentration was higher in chelipeds while the phosphorouscontent was more in abdomen muscles than in the chelipeds. However between threegroups the calcium content varied significantly both in the abdomen and chelipedmuscles (P<O.OOl) while the phosphorous content differed (P<O.OS) only in abdomenmuscles.
