This book was released on 1978 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manipulation of photoperiods, combined with modifications by other environmental conditions such as temperature and salinity, can alter growth, smoltification, and sexual maturation of salmonid fishes by way of a neuroendocrine pathway. The extent of responses of salmonids to environmental changes, however, is restricted by circadian endogenous metabolic rhythms that cannot be completely overcome by external factors. The success of the manipulation of photoperiod depends primarily on four factors: the daily length and the duration of the light treatment; the season and time of day during which fish are exposed to light; the age, sex, size and species of fish; and the type of physiological response under consideration. Although gaps remain in the available information, salmonids apparently need systematically changing, intermittent periods of darkness for optimum long-term stimulation of growth, reproduction, and migration.

Book Synopsis Proximate Composition and Caloric Content of Eight Lake Michigan Fishes by : Donald V. Rottiers
Download or read book Proximate Composition and Caloric Content of Eight Lake Michigan Fishes written by Donald V. Rottiers and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proximate composition (percentage lipid, water, fat-free dry material, ash) and caloric content of eight species of Lake Michigan fish were measured: lake trout, coho salmon, lake whitefish, bloater, alewife, rainbow smelt, deepwater sculpin, and slimy sculpin. Except for alewives, proximate composition and caloric content did not differ significantly between males and females. Although the caloric content of all species varied directly with lipid content and inversely with water content, an increase in lipid content did not always coincide with a proportional increasein caloric content when other components of fish composition were essentially unchanged. This observation suggests that the energy content of fish estimated from the proximate composition by using universal conversion factors may not necessarily be accurate.
Book Synopsis Acute Toxicity of Six Forest Insecticides to Three Aquatic Invertebrates and Four Fishes by : Herman O. Sanders
Download or read book Acute Toxicity of Six Forest Insecticides to Three Aquatic Invertebrates and Four Fishes written by Herman O. Sanders and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technical grade and field formulations of six experimental forest insecticides -- methomyl, carbaryl, aminocarb, trichlorfon, fenitrothion, and acephate -- were tested for acut toxicity against three species of aquatic invertebrates, (a daphnid, an amphipod, and larvae of a midge), and four species of fish (bluegill, rainbow trout, fathead minnow, channel catfish). Five of the six insecticides were highly toxic or extremely toxic to the daphnid, amphipod, and midge larvae. The sixth insecticide, acephate, was not toxic to invertebrates at concentrations up to 50 mg/L. Five of the insecticides ranged from highly toxic (methomyl to channel catfish) to relatively non-toxic (trichlorfon to fathead minnows); the sixth, acephate, was only slightly toxic to the fishes tested.

Book Synopsis Ecology of Larval Fishes in Lake Oahe, South Dakota by : William Roland Nelson
Download or read book Ecology of Larval Fishes in Lake Oahe, South Dakota written by William Roland Nelson and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time and location of spawning, food and larvae, and habitats used as nursery areas by young-of-the-year fishes were studied from 1972 to 1975 in South Dakota waters of Lake Oahe, a main stem Missouri River reservoir. Sampling locations were in the tributary rivres -- the Grand Moreau, and Cheyenne -- and their embayments. Year-class strength of river-spawning species was strongly correlated with river flow rates during the spawning season. Success of reservoir-spawning species was primarily dependent on above-average water levels, which inundated terrestrial vegetation to provide a substrate for egg deposition and cover for larvae. Preserving adequate streamflow and enhancing reservoir shoreline areas by managing water levels, seeding vegetation, and eliminating grazing alongshore would probably ensure adequate reproduction of most areas.

Book Synopsis Changes in Distribution of Trout in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, 1900-1977 by : George Alan Kelly
Download or read book Changes in Distribution of Trout in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, 1900-1977 written by George Alan Kelly and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant changes have occurred in the distribution of trout in streams of Great Smoky Mountains National Park since 1900. By the mid-1970's the original range of the native brook trout had been reduced by about 70% and the species was relegated to suboptimal habitat in head water streams. Most of the stream sections lost by brook trout became the territory of the introduced rainbow trout, which in 1977 occupied about 80% of the Park waters. After 1950, brown trout introduced in State waters outside the Park established reproducing populations in some 50 miles of stream formerly occupied only by rainbow trout. If current trends continue, the recovery of brook trout in Park water may be difficult, if not impossible, and brown trout may occupy much of the territory now held by rainbow trout.
Book Synopsis Food of Alewives, Yellow Perch, Spottail Shiners, Trout-perch, and Slimy and Fourhorn Sculpins in Southeastern Lake Michigan by : LaRue Wells
Download or read book Food of Alewives, Yellow Perch, Spottail Shiners, Trout-perch, and Slimy and Fourhorn Sculpins in Southeastern Lake Michigan written by LaRue Wells and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stomachs of 1,064 alewives, 1,103 yellow perch, 246 spottail shiners, 288 trout-perch, 454 slimy sculpins, and 562 fourhorn sculpins from Lake Michigan were examined for food contents. Fish were sampled primarily from March to November and nearly all were caught at the bottom in the southeastern part of the lake near Saugatuck, Michigan. Pontoporeia was the most commonly reprented food item in the stomach contents of the fish examined, with immature midges, Mysis (a type of freshwater shrimp), copepods, cladocerans, fingernail clams and crayfish also being represented. Different species consumed different proportions of foods. Zooplankton was the principle food of alewives and spottail shiners, but was also consumed in small quantities by yellow perch and trout perch. Mysis was important to fourhorn sculpins, in addition to Pontoporeia. Immature midges were a major portion of spottail shiners and trout perch, also being consumed by alewives. Fish were often the most important food of yellow perch in the largest size category. Crayfish were a sizable portion of the diet of yellow perch on rocky bottoms, but sparingly on smooth bottoms. Spottail shiners also ate substantial numbers of fingernail clams.
Book Synopsis Toxicity of Three Herbicides (butyl, Isooctyl, and Propylene Glycol Butyl Ether Esters of 2,4-D) to Cutthroat Trout and Lake Trout by : D. F. Woodward
Download or read book Toxicity of Three Herbicides (butyl, Isooctyl, and Propylene Glycol Butyl Ether Esters of 2,4-D) to Cutthroat Trout and Lake Trout written by D. F. Woodward and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two formulations of the herbicide 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) - the butyl ester (BE) and the propylene glycol butyl ether ester (PGBEE) -- had 96-h LC50's to cutthroat trout and lake trout ranging from 490 to 1,200 microgram/liter in static tests. A third formulation -- the isooctyl ester (IE) -- was not toxic to cutthroat trout or lake trout at concentrations below 60.000 microgram/liter. The butyl ester (2,4-D BE) was slightly more toxic than 2,4-D PGBEE, and the toxicity of both esters increased as water temperature decreased.

Book Synopsis Reproductive Physiology of Vertebrates by : Ari Van Tienhoven
Download or read book Reproductive Physiology of Vertebrates written by Ari Van Tienhoven and published by Comstock Publishing. This book was released on 1983 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a completely revised and updated second edition of a highly praised volume that was first published in 1968. Taking into account recent conceptual and technical advances, the new edition examines and compares the reproductive mechanisms of different classes of vertebrates, from cyclostomes to humans, in a thorough and analytic manner. Ari van Tienhoven is a uniquely qualified scientist with many years of research and teaching experience. His fourteen chaptesr cover sex determination, sexual development, intersexes, puberty, anatomy of the reproductive system, the testes, the ovary, reproductive cycles, insemination and fertilization, care of the embryo and fetus, expulsion of the oocyte, embryo, or fetus, reproduction and immunology, reproductive behavior, and environment and reproduction. The author emphasizes the role of the H-Y antigen in determining the sex of animals and gives particular attention to the evolutionary aspects of intersexes in fish. He discusses the endocrinology of reproduction, and he also deals with the role of light in controlling the timing of reproductive activity. Many illustrations, tables, and references are included. An important contribution to the fields of comparative endocrinology and reproduction, this book will be a valuable text for advanced undergraduate and gradate students and an irreplaceable reference for zoologists in general and for specialists in reproductive physiology.
