Social and biological determinants of reproductive success in Swedish males and females born 1915-1929
Studying biological and social determinants of mortality and fertility provides insight into selective pressures in a population and the possibility of trade-offs between shortand long-term reproductive success. Limited data is available from post-demographic transition populations. We studied determinants of reproductive success using multi-generational data from a large, population-based coho...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of oxytetracyline in Arctic charr
Ž . Ž The pharmacokinetics of oxytetracycline OTC was studied in Arctic charr SalÕelinus alpinus . Ž . L. in freshwater at a mean water temperature of 6.38C, after intravascular i.v.; 10 and 20 mgrkg Ž . and oral p.o.; 50 and 100 mgrkg administration. Two different oral formulations were tested as carriers for OTC; one in which OTC was dissolved in agar, the other where OTC was encapsulated in ...
متن کاملTerritoriality and male reproductive success in arctic ground squirrels
Although territorial defense is a common form of reproductive competition among male vertebrates, the exact reproductive consequences of this behavior are often poorly understood. To explore relationships between territoriality and reproductive success in a nongroup-living mammal, we quantified patterns of space use, mating success, and fertilization success for males in a free-living populatio...
متن کاملBehavioural and neuroendocrine effects of environmental background colour and social interaction in Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus).
In salmonid fish, a darker skin colour has been suggested to signal social subordination. Substratum colour is another factor affecting skin pigmentation in fish; in the present experiment, juvenile Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) were acclimated and allowed to interact in pairs for 5 days on a pale or dark background colour. Skin darkness was quantified prior to and following social interact...
متن کاملToxicokinetics and effects of PCBs in Arctic fish: a review of studies on Arctic charr.
In a series of environmentally realistic laboratory experiments, toxicokinetics and effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were studied in the Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus). Winter fasting and emaciation, which are common among Arctic charr living in high latitudes, resulted in a redistribution of the lipophilic PCBs from lipid-storing tissue such as the muscle, to vital organs that mu...
