Resumen (en)
Resumen (es)

During ontogeny, the allocation of energy can differ throughout the life cycle of a species, especially from juvenile to adult. The present study aimed to describe the relative growth, heterochely, and laterality patterns of the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium brasiliense. Carapace length (CL), abdomen length (AL), left cheliped length (LCL), right cheliped length (RCL), and abdomen width (AW) of males and females were measured. Differences in the morphometric relationships between juveniles and adults were evaluated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and linear regressions. Heterochely was tested using the Mann-Whitney test. Only the relationships LCL vs CL for males and AL vs CL for females were significantly different between adults and juveniles (P < 0.05); these were used to calculate morphological sexual maturity, estimated at 10.3mm CL for males and 8.1mm CL for females. Individuals did not present laterality (P > 0.05) or heterochely (P > 0.05). The average length of the largest and smallest cheliped in males was 9.9 ± 4.8 and 9.2 ± 4.26 mm, while for females it was 7.3 ± 2.4 and 6.8 ± 2.3 mm, respectively. The variation in size and developmental rate of structures suggests that the species follow a mate guarding reproductive strategy since males have well-developed chelipeds to be able to court and guard females during copulation.

Durante la ontogenia, la asignación de energía puede diferir a lo largo del ciclo de vida de una especie, especialmente entre la fase juvenil y adulta. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo describir el crecimiento relativo y los patrones de heteroquelia y lateralidad del camarón de agua dulce Macrobrachium brasiliense. Se midieron la longitud de: caparazón (CL), abdomen (AL), quelípodo izquierdo (LCL), quelípodo derecho (RCL) y ancho del abdomen (AW) de machos y hembras. Las diferencias en las relaciones morfométricas entre juveniles y adultos se estudiaron mediante análisis de covarianza (ANCOVA) y regresiones lineales. La heteroquelia se probó utilizando una prueba de Mann-Whitney. Solo la relación LCL vs CL para machos y AL vs CL para hembras fue significativamente diferente entre adultos y juveniles (P < 0.05), medidas usadas para calcular la madurez sexual morfológica, estimada en 10,3 mm CL para machos y 8,1 mm CL para hembras. Los individuos no presentaron lateralidad (P > 0,05) ni heteroquelia (P > 0,05). La longitud promedio del quelípodo mayor y menor en los machos fue de 9,9 ± 4,8 y 9,2 ± 4,26 mm, mientras que en las hembras fue de 7,3 ± 2,4 y 6,8 ± 2,3 mm, respectivamente. La variación en el tamaño y la tasa de desarrollo de las estructuras indica que la especie sigue una estrategia reproductiva de mate guarding, ya que los machos tienen quelípodos bien desarrollados con los que cortejan y protegen a las hembras durante la cópula.
