    Notes: Cannibalism in 0-group Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) was investigated in a semi-natural marine pond using stomach content analysis. About 6000 individuals were eradicated by rotenone treatment of the pond in November 1991. Total lengths of cod ranged from 7.4–28.8 cm with a median of 10.4 cm. The proportion of cannibalistic cod in the population was estimated at 1.3%. Cannibalism accounted for a daily loss of 1.1% of the population. The frequency of cod with ≥ 2 cod prey per stomach was higher in the population compared with a Poisson model. Predator-prey length ratios ranged between 1.6 and 3.2 when estimated from otolith-length relationships. Chesson's 1983 α-index indicated that cannibalistic cod had a positive selectivity for conspecifics 〈 9.0 cm in total length.

    Notes: Cod juveniles of about 20 mm had the lowest potential predator: prey length ratio based on mouth gape of the predator and the body height of the prey. This implies that the cannibalistic potential is maximized in this size range.

    Notes: Growth rate of tagged juvenile turbot was significantly influenced by the interaction of temperature and fish size. The results suggest the optimum temperature for growth of juvenile turbot in the size range 25–75 g is between 16 and 19°C. Optimal temperature for growth decreased rapidly with increasing size, and is between 13 and 16°C for 100 g turbot. Although individual growth rates varied highly at all times within the temperature treatments, significant size rank correlations were maintained during the experimental period. The study confirms that turbot exhibit ontogenetic variation in temperature optimum, which might partly explain different spatial distribution of juvenile and adult turbot in ocean waters.

    Notes: Sexual dimorphism in growth and maturation of individually tagged turbot (n= 421), Scophthalmus maximus Rafinesque, was studied in a long-lasting (20 months) growth experiment with four temperature regimes. The influence of onset of puberty and subsequent maturation on growth was evaluated. There were no initial size differences, but the final weight of females was larger than that of males at all temperature regimes, except at the lowest temperature. Surplus energy (sum of increase in somatic weight and gonad weight) in females was on average greater than in males from 8 months prior to first spawning. Significant growth (as specific growth rate, SGR) differences between maturing and immature fish were detected from the age of 9 months post hatch. Maturing females had the highest growth rate and reached the largest size (1.8 kg in 20 months), whereas male body weights reached a plateau and levelled off around 1.0 kg. To optimize production characteristics in turbot aquaculture and achieve more homogeneous growth, methods should be developed to produce all-female broods.

    Notes: Glycoconjugates in the inner ear of herring Clupea harengus larvae, investigated by laser confocal and electron microscopy, were located mainly in the gelatinous layer of the otolithic membranes, forming a collar around the proximal surfaces of the otoliths. The site of secretion was located on the surface of the sensory macula, from which a colonnade of glycoconjugate streamers projected through the subcupular region to connect with the gelatinous layer of each otolith. An electron dense component of the outer gelatinous layers, shown by TEM to be closely associated with the sensory kinocilia, suggested that they provided a basis for the streamers and offered a potential role in directing the path of secretion. It is hypothesized that this highly structured glycoconjugate framework could provide a mechanism for localizing and containing ionic and protein gradients previously detected in this vicinity and which are considered to have a key role in driving the differential growth and mineralization of the otoliths.

    Notes: In four half-sib pairings, herring mothers affected the standard length, dry weight, and RNA and DNA content of their progeny, while fathers affected larval RNA and DNA content. The amounts of RNA and DNA in offspring from one male were also influenced by temperature in that the highest RNA contents were found at the lowest temperature and highest DNA contents at the highest temperature. The results indicate that both environmental and genetic factors influence nucleic acid contents of young herring larvae, and this may limit the suitability of RNA : DNA ratio as a condition measure of newly hatched herring larvae.

    Notes: Causes of size variation in a population of juvenile turbot were studied using an individual based model (IBM). Each simulation started with 800 (divided into eight groups of 100 each) 120-day-old (posthatch) juveniles and was run for 140 days, and the data gained from model simulations compared directly with the result of a laboratory study with size-graded turbot. Stochastic growth with memory, which was included in the models as an individual genetical growth rate variation, is important in explaining size variation, and the combination between individual genetic growth rate and social interactions related to size-dependent hierarchies also contributes to size variation. The use of size-dependent growth rate alone fails to explain size variation, and is of little value in predicting size variation in turbot culture. Further, the results indicate formation of different types of size hierarchies for different sizes of juvenile turbot.

    Notes: Newly hatched autumn-spawned herring larvae Clupea harengus were released in two 2500-m3 outdoor mesocosms and reared over a 2-month period. Hydrographic conditions were similar in the two mesocosms, but the average plankton density was initially more than 10 times higher in mesocosm B compared to mesocosm A (〉11−1v. 〈0.11−1). Half-way through the experiment the feeding conditions reversed with three times higher average densities in mesocosm A than in mesocosm B (〉31−1v.∼11−1). Herring larvae were sampled with a 0.3-m2 two-chambered net twice weekly, and survivors were harvested by draining the mesocosms at the end of the experiment. Otolith growth trajectories of individual larvae were determined by relating radial otolith size with number of increments from the outer edge of the otolith (days before capture). The increment widths during the first 3 weeks after hatching, including the first-check size, were generally wider among larvae from mesocosm B (relatively good initial feeding conditions) than among those from mesocosm A (poor initial feeding conditions). The otolith growth pattern also confirmed that the surviving herring in mesocosm A belonged to the upper size range of larvae in the mesocosm after only 2–3 weeks from hatching; no such trend was found in mesocosm B. In both mesocosms the otolith size-at-age indicated that with the present sampling gear, herring larvae larger than 20–25 mm were underrepresented in the net samples. The information obtained from otolith-size-at-age is compared with other morphometric and biochemical measures of size and condition of larvae obtained throughout the experiment.
