Modelling Size-Dependent Cannibalism in Barramundi Lates calcarifer: Cannibalistic Polyphenism and Its Implication to Aquaculture
This study quantified size-dependent cannibalism in barramundi Lates calcarifer through coupling a range of prey-predator pairs in a different range of fish sizes. Predictive models were developed using morphological traits with the alterative assumption of cannibalistic polyphenism. Predictive models were validated with the data from trials where cannibals were challenged with progressing incr...
متن کاملDefining essential fatty acid deficiency in juvenile barramundi Lates calcarifer
Barramundi (Lates calcarifer), a catadromous teleost of significant and growing commercial importance, are reported to have limited fatty acid bioconversion capability, typical of marine species, and therefore require preformed long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) as dietary essential fatty acid (EFA). In this study, the response of juvenile barramundi (47.0 g/fish initial weight) f...
متن کاملA microsatellite linkage map of Barramundi, Lates calcarifer.
Barramundi (Lates calcarifer) is an important farmed marine food fish species. Its compact genome (approximately 700 Mb) is among the smallest genomes of food fish species. We established a first-generation genetic linkage map of Barramundi with a mapping panel containing three parents (two males and one female) and 93 progeny. A total of 240 microsatellite markers were mapped into 24 linkage g...
متن کاملModelling impacts of climate variability on the commercial barramundi (Lates calcarifer) fishery of north-eastern Queensland
Barramundi (Lates calcarifer) is an important Queensland commercial fishery that exhibits dramatic inter-annual fluctuations in catch which, according to fishers, are explained in part by variations in the climate. Traditionally, modelling of fisheries harvest has focussed on the development of surplus production/yield models which use catch and effort data, and more complex age-structured mode...
متن کاملAcute and postexposure effects of ammonia toxicity on juvenile barramundi (Lates calcarifer [Bloch]).
Lethal and sublethal effects of ammonia toxicity to juvenile barramundi (Lates calcarifer) were investigated under laboratory conditions following the OECD guidelines for testing of chemicals. Acute toxicity was tested in a static nonrenewal system at pH 9.0 and temperature around 29 degrees C. The 24-, 48-, and 96-h LC(50) values for barramundi were 3.89, 3.67, and 3.31 mg total ammonia N L(-1...
