Abstract

hepatopancreas, gonad and foot tissues of Corbicula  regularis (25-37 mm in shell length) were collected  from Girna dam Malegaon Dist-Nashik in year 2016- 2017.The DNA content maximum found in foot  during summer and maximum showed in gonad  during monsoon and winter season. The freshwater  bivalve shows maximum changes in the DNA  contents from gonad, as it undergoes different stages  like development, maturation and spawning during  different seasons.
