Soya saponins and prebiotics alter intestinal functions in Ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta). [PDF]

Br J Nutr, 2023
A 5-week feeding trial was conducted in the cleaner fish Ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) for a better understanding of the basic biology of the intestinal functions and health in this stomach less species. During the trial, Ballan wrasse was fed either a

Bacterial Communities of Ballan Wrasse (Labrus bergylta) Eggs at a Commercial Marine Hatchery. [PDF]

Curr Microbiol, 2021
Ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta, Ascanius 1767) are cleaner fish cultured in northern Europe to remove sea lice from farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, Linnaeus 1758).

Demographic variation between colour patterns in a temperate protogynous hermaphrodite, the ballan wrasse Labrus bergylta. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Fish populations are often treated as homogeneous units in typical fishery management, thereby tacitly ignoring potential intraspecific variation which can lead to imprecise management rules.

Aligning Fishing Gear Selectivity With Harvest Slot Limits for Ballan Wrasse Labrus bergylta

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries
Selectivity is an important parameter used to identify the portion of a stock caught by a fishing gear. In principle, fisheries management aligns the length at which 50% of individuals are selected for (L50) with minimum landing sizes.

Genomic Landscape of Divergence in Ballan Wrasse (Labrus bergylta). [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT The architecture underpinning genomic divergence is still a largely uncharted territory and likely case‐dependent. Here, we investigated genome‐wide variation in Ballan wrasse, a northeastern Atlantic fish species that displays two sympatric colour morphs, spotty and plain, that have been suggested to represent subspecies.

Insights into the early gonad development of the protogynous ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta)

Aquaculture Reports, 2023
The reproductive biology of ballan wrasse, a popular cleaner fish species now bred in captivity, is not well understood particularly the early stages of development and their accompanying endocrine changes. The protogynous nature of this species has been

Developmental stages of the ballan wrasse from first feeding through metamorphosis: Cranial ossification and the digestive system. [PDF]

J Anat, 2022
We have described six developmental stages for the ballan wrasse, from the first feeding until the juvenile stage, supported by specific descriptions of cranial ossification, maturation of the digestive tract, and growth-correlated stages.

Intestinal Function of the Stomachless Fish, Ballan Wrasse (Labrus bergylta) [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Little is known about the digestion of nutrients in stomachless (agastric) fishes with short intestines, such as wrasse. This study describes the digestion, absorption and evacuation rates in ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) fed either dry or pre-soaked ...

Allometric growth and development of organs in ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta Ascanius, 1767) larvae in relation to different live prey diets and growth rates [PDF]

Biology Open, 2016
Small fish larvae grow allometrically, but little is known about how this growth pattern may be affected by different growth rates and early diet quality. The present study investigates how different growth rates, caused by start-feeding with copepods or
