Journal ArticleDOI

Cold and dark or warm and light: variations on the theme of environmental control of reproduction.

TL;DR: Environmental regulation of high latitude species appears to operate across a hierarchy of variables with photoperiod then temperature as primary drivers, whereas in tropical habitats, the hierarchy may be inverted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of elevated water temperature and food availability on the reproductive performance of a coral reef fish

TL;DR: Reduced breeding rate at warmer temperatures combined with reduced sperm production indicates the potential for significant declines in A. polyacanthus populations as the ocean warms.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of capture, handling, confinement and ectoparasite load on plasma levels of cortisol, glucose and lactate in the coral reef fish Hemigymnus melapterus

TL;DR: H. melapterus has a stress response similar to that shown by temperate species, and relatively high parasite loads are not apparently stressful to fish in the wild, possibly related to the counterproductive effects of physiological stress responses on the immune system or behaviour-modulated processes that counter parasitic invasion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of capture and recovery on plasma levels of cortisol, lactate and gonadal steroids in a natural population of rainbow trout

TL;DR: It is concluded that catch and release angling will result in negligible mortality, but may have an inhibitory effect on some reproductive processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of stress and exercise on post-mortem biochemistry of Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout

TL;DR: This study shows that the physiological disruption in Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout caused by simulated harvest conditions of stress and exercise, results in mostly transient changes in post-mortem muscle biochemistry, which lead to an earlier onset and resolution of rigor, and lower post- autopsy muscle pH in comparison to the control.
