use of minimum legal size in managing black clam (villorita cyprinoides) fishery in india
using size at first maturity (sfm) as a biological reference point, the minimum legal size (mls) for the black clam, villorita cyprinoides was fixed at 20 mm. corresponding minimum legal weight was calculated as 3.4 g. the reproductive load and mean generation time were determined as 0.35 and 0.72, respectively. of the total quantity of clams exploited during 1996-97, 50% were juveniles. the pe...
متن کاملEffect of High and Low Stocking Density on Age of Maturity, Egg Production, Egg Size Distribution in White and Brown Layer Hens: A Meta-analysis
Data of four layers flocks (#31-34) from North Carolina Layer Performance and Management Test of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services were used in the meta-analysis to find if an increase in space allowance can affect egg production traits in white and brown layers. Effects of space allowance of 310 and 413 cm2/bird on layers performance were compared in this study. The increase ...
متن کاملEgg components, egg size, and hatchling size in leatherback turtles.
Relationships between egg size, egg components, and neonate size have been investigated across a wide range of oviparous taxa. Differences in egg traits among taxa reflect not only phylogenetic differences, but also interactions between biotic (i.e., maternal resource allocation) and abiotic (i.e. nest environment conditions) factors. We examined relationships between egg mass, egg composition,...
متن کاملEffect of egg size on heat production and the transition of energy from egg to hatchling.
An experiment was conducted to study the effect of egg size on embryo development, heat production, and energy partitioning between egg and hatchling. Small (56.1 +/- 0.12 g SEM) and large (70.0 +/- 0.11 g SEM) hatching eggs were incubated in climate respiration chambers, and eggshell temperature was maintained constant at 37.8 degrees C in both egg weight classes by adjusting machine temperatu...
متن کاملEffect of limestone particle size on egg production and eggshell quality of hens during late production
A study was conducted to determine the influence of different particle size limestone in layer diets on egg production and eggshell quality during the later stages of egg production (>54 weeks of age). Calcitic limestone (360 g Ca/kg), consisting of small (<1.0 mm), medium (1.0 2.0 mm) and large (2.0 3.8 mm) particles were obtained from a specific South African source that is extensively used i...
