Altered Prey Responses in Round Goby from Contaminated Sites
Although prey must move to forage, escape predation or gain information about predation risk, movement itself enhances the risk of predation by increasing visibility of prey and encounter rates with predators. Animals subjected to stressors often show altered behaviour; a widely cited effect of contaminant exposure is an increase in vulnerability to predation, which may be mediated by an increa...
متن کاملAcoustic communication modalities of the round goby ( Neogobius melanostomus)
Acoustic communication is essential to survival for many fish species, however it is often understudied. This thesis investigates two areas of acoustic communication in the round goby (Neogobius melanostomus). These fish have no accessory hearing structures, and theory would predict they would be unable to localize sound sources, however it has been shown that round gobies can localize conspeci...
متن کاملWhat's in a name? Taxonomy and nomenclature of invasive gobies in the Great Lakes and beyond
Index words: Gobiidae Invasive species Neogobius Proterorhinus Round Goby Tubenose Goby The species identities, scientific names, and relationships of Eurasian gobies that invaded the Laurentian Great Lakes – and other species that are predicted to invade in the future – are evaluated here using recently resolved DNA characters. The Round Goby and the Freshwater Tubenose Goby entered the Great ...
متن کاملInvasion strategy and abiotic activity triggers for non-native gobiids of the River Rhine
The 24 hour activity patterns of three non-native gobiids (round goby Neogobius melanostomus, Western tubenose goby Proterorhinus semilunaris and bighead goby Ponticola kessleri) were assessed over 46 consecutive months between 2011 and 2014 from their occurrence in the cooling water intake of a nuclear power plant on the River Rhine, Germany. In total, 117717 gobiids were identified and classi...
متن کاملPlasticity in gene transcription explains the differential performance of two invasive fish species
Phenotypic plasticity buffers organisms from environmental change and is hypothesized to aid the initial establishment of nonindigenous species in novel environments and postestablishment range expansion. The genetic mechanisms that underpin phenotypically plastic traits are generally poorly characterized; however, there is strong evidence that modulation of gene transcription is an important c...
