Effects of different diets on juvenile tench, Tinca tinca (L.) reared under controlled conditions

TL;DR: Only Asta starter can be fed effectively and safely to juvenile tench reared intensively under controlled conditions, and fish in groups with deformities showed significantly elevated lipid content in their bodies, lower ash content and higher condition coefficient values.

Interactions between Walleyes and Four Fish Species with Implications for Walleye Stocking

TL;DR: Which species interact most strongly with walleyes, determined the most likely mechanism for interaction (predation, competition, or both), and characterized the effects of walleye stocking on these species are identified.

A history of identification to continent of origin of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at west Greenland, 1969–1997

TL;DR: In the commercial fishery at west Greenland, Atlantic salmon have been identified to continent of origin, viz., North American or European, since 1969, using scale pattern recognition techniques as mentioned in this paper.

Determinação de um método para cálculo do Fator de Condição Alométrico de peixes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors verified that the use of one b value for each sub-sample leads to distortion of condition factor values and concluded that the method which calculates b coefficient from groupings of all individuals and uses b as a constant value for all sub-samples is the most convenient method to study fish condition.

Recombinant bovine somatotropin more than doubles the growth rate of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) acclimated to seawater and ambient winter conditions

TL;DR: It was concluded that somatotropin treatment can produce a significant increase in the growth rate of coho salmon, both after they have made the transition to salt water and during the winter months, when environmental conditions are sub-optimal for growth.
