Reduction of cannibalism in pike (Esox lucius) fry by isolation of full-sib families.
نویسندگان
چکیده
After 50 days of pond culture fewer pike fingerlings (20 to 33 p. 100) were recovered from the mixing of two full-sib families than from isolated families. Growth and survival were influenced by the family effect. Environmental parameters, such as depth and extent of the banks, may also affect growth and survival. Our results indicated that isolating full-sib families and using small, shallow ponds increased the recovery and growth rate of fingerlings.
