Journal ArticleDOI
Ontogeny and sex alter the effect of predation on body shape in a livebearing fish: sexual dimorphism, parallelism, and costs of reproduction
TL;DR: Convergence in female body shape may indicate a trade-off between optimal shape for predator evasion versus shape required for the livebearing mode of reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersal behavior correlates with personality of a North American fish
Josh E. Rasmussen,Mark C. Belk +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that understanding of personality may illuminate patterns of dispersal within and among populations, and relative location within the study reach, and population density were not significantly related to dispersal probabilities of individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual Movement of Stream Fishes: Linking Ecological Drivers with Evolutionary Processes
Josh E. Rasmussen,Mark C. Belk +1 more
TL;DR: Movement of freshwater stream fish has been at times viewed as predominantly restricted in nature, but recent research challenges this paradigm since some distribution of movement exists in every population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hatchery-induced morphological variation in an endangered fish: a challenge for hatchery-based recovery efforts
TL;DR: June sucker is an endangered lake sucker endemic to Utah Lake and recovery plans include raising thousands of juveniles to stock in the lake, and hatchery-reared individuals exhibited higher variance in shape both within and among families compared with shape variance in lake- reared individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endangered species augmentation: a case study of alternative rearing methods
TL;DR: It is suggested that augmentation procedures would produce more recruits to the adult population if they incorporate grow-out or at least acclimation in more natural environments than that provided by hatcheries prior to release in Utah Lake.
