Book excerpt: Fish recruitment is a key process for maintaining sustainable fish populations. In the marine environment, fish recruitment is carried out in many different ways, all of which have different life history strategies. The objective of this book is to argue for greater linkages between basic and applied research on fisheries recruitment, and assessment and management of exploited fish stocks. Following an introductory chapter, this second edition of Fish Reproductive Biology is organized into 3 main sections: Biology, Population Dynamics and Recruitment Information Critical to Successful Assessment and Management Incorporation of Reproductive Biology and Recruitment Considerations into Management Advice and Strategies The authors collectively bring a wide range of diverse experience in areas of reproductive biology, fisheries oceanography, stock assessment, and management. Fully updated throughout, the book will be of great interest to a wide audience. It is useful as a textbook in graduate and undergraduate courses in fisheries biology, fisheries science, and fisheries resource management and will provide vital information for fish biologists, fisheries scientists and managers.

Download or read book Reproductive Biology of Teleost Fishes written by Robert J. Wootton. This book was released on 2014-12-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reproductive Biology of Teleost Fishes is the first integrated review of the reproductive biology of the bony fishes, which are the most species-rich and diversified group of vertebrates. Teleosts display remarkable variation in their modes of reproduction, and this volume is intended to provide a framework for understanding the remarkable reproductive diversity of this group. It describes their reproductive biology using, wherever possible, phylogenetic analyses and life-history theory as a means to interpret the information. The book addresses the genetic, physiological, behavioural, ecological, evolutionary and applied aspects of teleost reproduction in a comparative framework that emphasises the adaptive basis of reproductive diversity. Reproductive Biology of Teleost Fishes provides a comprehensive synthesis of fish reproduction that will be of great interest to life scientists, particularly ecologists, evolutionary biologists, physiologists and advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and research workers requiring a comprehensive overview of fish reproduction. The book is suitable for courses in fish biology and ecology, reproductive physiology and reproductive genetics. It also addresses applied questions and will be of value for courses on fisheries science and aquaculture. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological sciences, fisheries science and aquaculture are studied and taught should have several copies of this important book on their shelves.

Book excerpt: With the decline in world fish stocks, our knowledge of fish reproduction has become fundamental. Reproduction is an essential commitment to future generation. It is also a continuous development process throughout ontogeny, requiring energetic, ecological, physiological, anatomical, biochemical and endrocrinological adaptations. The first chapters highlight important issues affecting fish normal ways of reproductive development; details would focus on species living in opposite environments, such as tropical and polar fishes; far related, as teleosts and cartilaginous fishes; and finally, fish having different reproductive strategies. Thereafter, since many fishes live in detrimental environments, mainly induced by the continuous input of xenobiotic substances into waterways, the authors found it highly pertinent to include this topic. Herein, the authors fix their attention on the factors and mechanisms that may well affect reproductionrelated hormonal systems as also on known consequences for fish living i

Book excerpt: Reproduction - a process whereby a fish can preserve its persistent existence mainly by sexual method - allows for genetic change, leads to hybrids and development of new species. Fish reproductive biology is significant in fisheries research, stock assessment, and management. The rapidly expanding human population of the earth consumes increasing quantities of food; not only food grown on land, but also food from natural aquatic ecosystems. A more exploitation of lakes, rivers and seas will cause to destruction of ecosystems and species disappearance. Also, in many places water pollution has made aquatic food undesirable for human consumption. Aquaculture is the apparent substitute as it can deliver large quantities of healthier, protein rich food. Aquaculture, however, needs a sound scientific basis. One of its important issues is the reproduction of aquatic animals under husbandry conditions.This book provides some criteria and research studies on issues of fish reproductive biology that will augment the understanding of reproductive processes in fish, molluscs, crustaceans and other fish farm animals, will lead to successful introduction of new species, and will encourage the development of new techniques for unraveling practical problems of reproduction in aquaculture.This book is intended to discuss for greater linkages between basic and applied research on fisheries enlistment, and valuation and supervision of exploited fish stocks. The book will be of immense interest for fisheries science students and will provide up-to-date information for fish biologists, fisheries practitioners and managers.

Book excerpt: It is perhaps because fishes live in a buoyant medium, whether it be fresh or sea water, that they show a diversity in body shapes that is unparalleled by other vertebrates. There is also a unique diversity in the modes of reproduction, whether by external or internal fertilization, and this, with the morphology and fine structure of the reproducti
