• Indicators of Energetic Status in Juvenile Coho Salmon and Chinook Salmon (2005, background): “Lipids are also often poorly correlated to condition factor in free-ranging fish (Hart et al. 1940; Parker and Vanstone 1966; Gershanovich et al. 1984; Sutton et al. 2000).”
• Are compensatory growth and catch-up growth two sides of the same coin? (2010, background): “Body condition, expressed as K, may correlate with percentage body fat and energy concentration (Lambert and Dutil 1997; Sutton et al. 2000; Pangle and Sutton 2005; Gauthier et al. 2008; Rennie and Verdon 2008); as such, even though it remains a matter of some debate, it seems that K may be used as…”
• Juvenile salmonid distribution, growth, condition, origin, and environmental and species associations in the Northern California Current (2004, background): “Growth and indices of condition can be used as measures of habitat quality for juvenile salmon and to identify essential links between oceanographic conditions and survival of salmon populations during the critical juvenile life history phase.”
• Relationships between condition factors, parasite load and paternity in bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus (2004, background): “However, Simpson et al. (1992) and Sutton et al. (2000) showed that in Atlantic salmon, the strength of the correlation between the condition factors and lipid density varied during the season, stressing the importance of determining an association at critical periods, such as at the onset of bree”
• Increased parental care cost for nest-guarding fish in a lake with hyperabundant nest predators (2005, methodology): “Because energy density can be influenced by fish size (Mackereth et al., 1999), we used the residuals of WW and energetic content (in kilojoules in viscera, testes, or whole body) from regressions on TL in all analyses (Steinhart and Wurtsbaugh, 2003; Sutton et al., 2000 ).”
• Anadromy and residency in steelhead and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): a review of the processes and patterns (2015, unknown): “Regardless, given that growth and size are not necessarily correlated with lipids (McMillan et al. 2012; Sutton et al. 2000), studies that only consider measures of growth or body size may not fully elucidate how individual condition can influence life history patterns (Table 3; Sloat et al.”
• Blood-chemistry indicators of nutritional status in juvenile salmonids (2006, unknown): “Morphometric condition factors, which assume that heavier fishes of a given length are in better nutritional condition, are simple, non-lethal surrogates for proximate analysis, but may not be sensitive indicators of energy content (Sutton et al., 2000; Trudel et al., 2005) or accurate predictors of”
• Genetic quality and offspring performance in Chinook salmon: implications for supportive breeding (2007, background): “Fulton’s condition factor has been correlated with nonpolar lipid density in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr (Sutton et al. 2000) other fishes including sexually mature bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) (Neff and Cargnelli 2004).”
• Physiological response of wild rainbow trout to angling: Impact of angling duration, fish size, body condition, and temperature (2005, background): “…fish was estimated by the residuals from a linear regression of weight on fork length, which has been demonstrated to remove the effects of size variation and is considered an appropriate condition index for the weight–length relationship in fish (Reist, 1985; Cone, 1989; Sutton et al., 2000).”
