From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Gonadosomatic index)
The gonadosomatic index, abbreviated as GSI, is the calculation of the gonad mass as a proportion of the total body mass. It is represented by the formula: GSI = [Gonad Weight / Total Tissue Weight] x 100 (Barber & Blake 2006).[1] It is a tool for measuring the sexual maturity of animals in correlation to ovary development and testes development.
