متن کاملClimate change and body size shift in Mediterranean bivalve assemblages: unexpected role of biological invasions.
Body size is a synthetic functional trait determining many key ecosystem properties. Reduction in average body size has been suggested as one of the universal responses to global warming in aquatic ecosystems. Climate change, however, coincides with human-enhanced dispersal of alien species and can facilitate their establishment. We address effects of species introductions on the size structure...
متن کاملSome properties reproductive of the speckled shrimp (Metapenaeus monoceros Fabricius, 1798) in the North-eastern Mediterranean
Speckled shrimp (Metapenaeus monoceros), is a commercially important prawn in the embayments and estuaries of the Mediterranean Sea. It is originally a Lessepsian species which had migrated from the Red Sea into the Mediterranean Sea through the Suez Canal. This study was carried out in the North-eastern Mediterranean Sea between November 2009 and October 2010 with monthly sampling of speckled ...
متن کاملLength weight relationship, condition factor and length at first maturity of Indian halibut Psettodes erumei in the Persian Gulf
Length weight relationship, condition factor and length at first maturity of Indian halibut Psettodes erumei were investigated in the Persian Gulf by monthly sampling of 30 fish from March to February 2012. Mean value of total length and weight were 38.68 ± 9.39 cm and 986.92 ± 756.79 gr, respectively. Maximum and minimum values of total length were in August (44.43 ± 6.37 cm) and March (23.27 ...
متن کاملEvolutionary regime shifts in age and size at maturation of exploited fish stocks.
Worldwide declines of fish stocks raise concerns about deleterious consequences of harvesting for stock abundances and individual life histories, and call for appropriate recovery strategies. Fishes in exploited stocks mature earlier at either larger or smaller sizes due to both genetic and plastic responses. The latter occur commonly when reduced competition for food leads to faster growth. Us...
