Influence of maternal weight, age, larval feeding and their interactions on the hatchery outcomes of an Indian major carp (Labeo rohita, Hamilton 1822)

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
Broodstocks’ size (weight or length), age and larval feeding are crucial in the production of good quality gametes and larvae in any fish. Therefore, this study was conducted with two experiments to understand 1) effects of maternal weight and age, and 2)

Effect of competitive cues on reproductive morphology and behavioral plasticity in male fruitflies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Phenotypic plasticity will be favored whenever there are significant fitness benefits of responding to environmental variation. The extent and nature of the plasticity that evolves depends on the rate of environmental fluctuations and the capacity to ...

Seasonal Occurrence and Relative Abundance of Marine Fish Larval Families over Healthy and Degraded Seagrass Beds in Coastal Kenya

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Seagrass beds provide critical nursery habitats and spawning grounds for new generations of fish. The habitats are under threat from human activities and climate change, and with that, an important ocean service is lost that limits fish production.

Larval fish in the vicinity of aquaculture intakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has recently proposed that all facilities pumping water from Texas estuaries be fitted with 0.5 mm screening to prevent larval fish mortality at these facilities. Data on larval fish distributions in Texas estuaries is

Recruitment of Baltic cod and sprat stocks: identification of critical life stages and incorporation of environmental variability into stock-recruitment relationships

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2003
The recruitment processes of Baltic cod and sprat were analysed and critical periods were identified by addressing the major impact factors on individual early life history stages separately and relating observed abundance data between successive stages.
