Maternal and paternal influences on early life history traits and processes of Baltic cod Gadus morhua
Embryo survival, larval standard length, yolk-sac area, yolk utilization and resistance to starvation were significantly influenced by the female parent and the interaction between both parents of Baltic Sea cod Gadus morhua in a gamete factorial cross of 3 females and 5 males in all possible combinations. The proportion of variance in embryonic survivorship that was due to maternity during inc...
متن کاملSelection by higher‐order effects of salinity and bacteria on early life‐stages of Western Baltic spring‐spawning herring
Habitat stratification by abiotic and biotic factors initiates divergence of populations and leads to ecological speciation. In contrast to fully marine waters, the Baltic Sea is stratified by a salinity gradient that strongly affects fish physiology, distribution, diversity and virulence of important marine pathogens. Animals thus face the challenge to simultaneously adapt to the concurrent sa...
متن کاملScenario - C : The cod predation model
Tittel/Title: Scenario-C: The cod predation model. Sammendrag/Abstract: The Scenario C project aims at a dynamic minimal realistic model for capelin, herring, cod, harp seals and minke whales in the Barents Sea and for herring in the Norwegian Sea. This report is an attempt to estimate a consumption function for cod from estimated monthly abundances of capelin, herring and younger cod in region...
متن کاملTrophodynamic control by clupeid predators on recruitment success in Baltic cod?
Throughout the 1980s, reproductive success of the top-predator cod declined and stock sizes of the main prey species herring and especially sprat, important planktivorous predators in the system, increased substantially. Although the hydrographic conditions conducive for survival of early life stages improved during the 1990s, recruitment success of cod remained far below average. As clupeids h...
متن کاملPredation by the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Protoperidiniurn cf. divergens on copepod eggs and early naupliar stages
The heterotrophic dinoflagellate Protopemdinium cf. divergens, known as prey for adult copepods, itself feeds on copepod eggs and early naupliar stages. One to several P. cf. divergens can attack an egg or nauplius larger than themselves. The time for an egg to be digested was proportional to the number of P. cf. divergens attacking it. Ingestion rates of P, cf. djvergens on Acartia tonsa eggs ...
