Modeling the weight gain of freshwater-reared rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) during the grow-out phase

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020
We used five nonlinear models to calculate the weight gain of rainbow trout (122.11±15.6 g) during the final grow-out phase of 98 days under three different feed types (two commercials diets, A and B, and one experimental diet, C) in triplicate groups ...

Age and growth of the endemic groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a heavily exploited batoid in the Brazilian Meridional Margin (21–34° S)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Life‐history data are often lacking for exploited elasmobranchs, jeopardizing proper management and conservation measures for this vulnerable group. Herein, we provided age and growth estimates for the groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a medium‐sized, heavily exploited batoid endemic to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.

Phenotypic divergence may facilitate co‐occurrence in Acanthopagrus species (Family: Sparidae)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding why closely related species co‐occur is one fundamental question in ecology. The seabream genus Acanthopagrus Peters, 1855 (Sparidae) is broadly distributed across the Indo‐Pacific, with four species, A. arabicus and A. sheim (yellowfin group), and A. bifasciatus and A.

Biological characteristics and mortality of western butterfish (Pentapodus vitta), an abundant bycatch species of prawn trawling and recreational fishing in a large subtropical embayment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The western butterfish (Pentapodus vitta) is numerous in the bycatch of prawn trawling and recreational fishing in Shark Bay, Western Australia. We have thus determined crucial aspects of its biological characteristics and the potential impact of fishing
