Effects of temperature and browning on the functional response of a freshwater top predator
This study explores for the first time how temperature and browning affect the functional response of a freshwater piscivore, the northern pike. The authors find surprisingly weak effects of browning, challenging visual foraging theory. Pike displayed a rare dome‐shaped functional response in cold clear water, potentially driven by seasonal changes in ...

ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

ABSTRACT Fish migration through river networks is essential for completing life cycles and accessing critical habitats, but fragmentation increasingly disrupts spawning movements. In Europe, over one million barriers limit connectivity and create trade‐offs between ecological integrity and human uses, such as hydropower, flood control, fisheries and ...

Aspects of the washout of salmonid eggs. 4. Effects of a standard mechanical shock, applied at different stage of development, upon survival and development of eggs of brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) [PDF]
It is generally accepted by fish culturists that salmonid eggs are sensitive to mechanical shock and that the sensitivity varies with the stage of development of the eggs.

Short communication: The effect of salinity on spotting features of Salmo trutta abanticus, S. trutta fario and S. trutta labrax of cultured brown trout [PDF]
Salmo trutta is one of the most important fish species due to its aquaculture potential, economic value and wide consumer demand and skin color is an important commercial trait in fish farming, given that this phenotype influences consumer acceptance ...

16S rRNA gene in the salmo trutta fario and Salmo trutta caspius has been polymerized, characterized and compared with within and between of salmonids species. The full lengths of 16S rRNA gene in species of salmons were sequenced approximately 1.7 kb and deposited in GenBank. We designed one pair of primer for amplification of 16S rRNA gene in species

Effects of introduced trout predation on non-diadromous galaxiid fish populations across invaded riverscapes [PDF]
We assessed the landscape-scale effect of predation pressure from trout on the population integrity and distributions of non-diadromous galaxiids in high-country streams of the South Island, New Zealand.
