Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spotted bass Micropterus punctulatus were recently introduced into Lake Norman, which already supported a healthy largemouth bass M. salmoides population. After only ten years, spotted bass now make up about half of the black bass fishery. Because the two species are ecologically similar, and numbers and biomass of largemouth bass have been declining, biologists were concerned that spotted bass were negatively affecting largemouth bass. Additionally, morphological observations suggested the two species were hybridizing. To better understand these issues, hybridization, diet overlap, and habitat use by black bass in Lake Norman were quantified. Genetic analyses confirmed largemouth and spotted bass were hybridizing. Genetic information on individuals was paired with morphological characteristics at juvenile (50 ÃØâ'Ơ“ 100 mm total length, TL; n = 60) and adult (300 ÃØâ'Ơ“ 500 mm TL; n = 78) life stages, and reliable patterns for field identification of spotted bass, largemouth bass, and hybrids were developed (78-88% correct). To understand potential competition between the taxa, juvenile (n = 132) and adult (n = 120) black bass were collected for diet and habitat comparisons. Diet information was collected from juveniles from 31 July ÃØâ'Ơ“ 08 Aug 2007, 29 April 2008, and 10 June 2008 at different spatial scales. Zooplankton and benthic invertebrates were collected to estimate availability. Diet information was collected from adult fish from 29 April ÃØâ'Ơ“ 01 May 2008 and from 12 May ÃØâ'Ơ“ 16 May 2008. Habitat information on substrate and cover use was collected from locations of immobilized fish, and habitat availability of substrate and cover was estimated from 300-m transects (n = 12) throughout the reservoir. Proportion similarity index and MorisitaÃØâ'Ơâ"Øs index were used to quantify diet overlap by percent by number and percent by occurrence, and 10,000 bootstrap values were generated so that 95% confidence intervals could be estimated. Estimates.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The effects of 330-457-mm slot length limits and 457-mm minimum length limits were evaluated for black bass populations, and angling at Kansas state fishing lakes from 1993 to 2000. Largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides and spotted bass M. punctulatus were sampled by DC electrofishing during the spring, and anglers were surveyed during standard creel surveys March-October. Results at lakes with the 330-457-mm slot limit showed largemouth bass populations had greater densities of fish> 300 mm, higher PSD and RSD-P, and better growth, and spotted bass populations displayed greater densities for fish 180-349 mm than populations under the 305-381-mm slot length limit. At these same lakes, anglers caught and harvested fewer total largemouth bass, but released greater numbers>381 mm. No significant differences were found in largemouth bass populations at lakes with 330-457-mm slot limits and 381-mm and 457-mm minimum length limits. Largemouth bass growth and condition was lower at lakes after 457-nun limits were established than before. The 330-457-nun slot length limit is recommended for lakes with moderate to high recruitment of 200-299-nun largemouth bass. The 457-mm length limit is recommended when opening a newly established largemouth bass fishery, but should be replaced with a more liberal limit when moderate to high numbers of intermediate-sized fish are present."--Page 4

Book excerpt: "Lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles complex) are venomous coral reef fishes from the Indian and western Pacific oceans that are now found in the western Atlantic Ocean. Adult lionfish have been observed from Miami, Florida to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and juvenile lionfish have been observed off North Carolina, New York, and Bermuda. The large number of adults observed and occurrence of juveniles indicate the lionfish are established and reproducing along the southeast United States coast"--Executive summary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a reprinted collection of 69 ?classics? from the Avise laboratory, chosen to illustrate a trademark brand of research that harnesses molecular markers to scientific studies of natural history and evolution in the wild. Spanning the early 1970s through the late 2000s, these articles trace how the author and his colleagues have used molecular genetics techniques to address multifarious conceptual topics in genetics, ecology, and evolution, in a fascinating menagerie of creatures with oft-peculiar lifestyles. The organisms described in this volume range from blind cavefish to male-pregnant pipefishes and sea spiders, from clonal armadillos to natal-homing marine turtles, from hermaphroditic sea snails to hybridizing monkeys and tree frogs, from clonal marine sponges to pseudohermaphroditic mollusks to introgressing oysters, and from endangered pocket gophers, terrapins, and sparrows to unisexual (all-female) fish species to ?living-fossil? horseshoe crabs, and even to a strange little fish that routinely mates with itself. The conceptual and molecular topics addressed in this volume are also universal, ranging from punctuated equilibrium to coalescent theory to the need for greater standardization in taxonomy, from cytonuclear disequilibrium statistics to the ideas of speciation duration and sympatric speciation, from historical population demography to phylogenetic reconstructions of males' sexual ornaments, from the population genetic consequences of inbreeding to Pleistocene effects on phylogeography, and from the molecular underpinnings of null alleles to the notion of clustered mutations that arise in groups to compelling empirical evidence for the unanticipated processes of gene conversion and concerted evolution in animal mitochondrial DNA. Overall, this collection includes many of the best, most influential, sometimes controversial, occasionally provocative, always intriguing, or otherwise entertaining publications to have emerged from the Avise laboratory over the last four decades. Thus, this book conveys, through the eyes of one of the field's longstanding pioneers, what ?the organismal side? of molecular ecology and evolution really means.
