Çanakkale Boğazına bağlı Kilya (Poyraz) Koyunda, farklı boy gruplarındaki midyelerin (30,40,50,60,70 mm) et verimleri Nisan 2002 - Mart 2003 tarihleri arasında takip edilmiştir. Bütün midye boy gruplarında, genellikle et veriminin en yüksek olduğu dönem Mayıs 2002 olmuştur. Ekim 2002 ve Kasım 2002'de ise en düşük seviyelere inmiştir. Midyelerin et verimleri ile klorofil-a miktarları arasında önemli bir ilişki bulunmuştur (p0.05). Bu bölgede; su sıcaklığının uygun olduğu ve klorofil-a miktarının en üst seviyelere çıktığı Mayıs - Temmuz arasında, et verimleri de üst seviyelere çıkmıştır. Midye haşatı açısından bu tarihlerin çok önemli olduğunu söyleyebiliriz.
Meat yield of mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck, 1819) in different size groups in Kilya Bay -Dardanelles. In this study, meat yield of different size groups of mussels were determined in Kilya Bay - Dardanelles, between April 2002 - March 2003. In all mussel groups, meat yield was the highest in May 2002. However, minimum meat yield value was determined in October 2002 and November 2002. Significantly relation was found between meat yield and chlorophyll-a (p<0.05). Significantly important differences were not found between mussel size groups (p>0.05). Since water temperature and chlorophyll-a amount are suitable level during May-July in Kilya Bay, mussel harvest is suggested from this area.
