Benefits of Lobster Translocation to Fishery Productivity and Economics in Tasmania

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large‐scale translocation of Southern Rock Lobsters, Jasus edwardsii, in Tasmania has been conducted for over two decades. This involves moving slow‐growing lobsters from deep‐water areas to inshore, warmer areas to increase growth rates and improve commercial characteristics, especially shell color.

Factors Influencing the Stocking of Juvenile Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca)

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predator species of fish play crucial roles in ecosystem balance through top‐down control, a mechanism frequently exploited in biomanipulation to stock predator species. Juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) were stocked (n = 52,887) in spring 2023 and 2024 and autumn 2023 to compare stocking efficiency between Recirculation Aquaculture ...

Filial cannibalism by largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides): a three-decade natural history record from a small northern temperate lake

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2018
We observed cannibalism by juvenile and adult largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) on their young-of-year (YOY) over nearly three decades (1984–2012) in a small temperate lake located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, USA.

Long‐Term Trends in Juvenile Blue Crab Recruitment Patterns in a Wind‐Driven Estuary

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conserving exploited marine species requires understanding population dynamics across life stages and habitats. This study analyzes juvenile blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) recruitment trends in North Carolina's Albemarle‐Pamlico Estuarine System.

Cannibalism and Performance Evaluation of Hybrids between Clarias batrachus and Clarias gariepinus

Croatian Journal of Fisheries, 2016
Cannibalism is an important characteristic of African catfish that significantly reduces the number of stocked fish at harvest. This study evaluates the effect of reciprocal hybridization of Clarias batrachus and Clarias gariepinus on cannibalism and ...

Unconventional Care: Offspring Abandonment and Filial Cannibalism Can Function as Forms of Parental Care

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Parental care is a key life-history trait that increases offspring fitness. When one thinks of parental care, nurturing behaviors such as guarding, provisioning, and grooming typically come to mind. However, such conventional forms of care often co-occur

Growth Autocorrelation in Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Thunnus thynnus Larvae in the Northwest Mediterranean and the Gulf of Mexico

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growth and survival rates during the early life stages are key vital parameters driving population dynamics of fish. Growth rates generally present a pattern of autocorrelation. Growth autocorrelation is stronger when faster and slower growing individuals continue to grow faster and slower.
