Contrary to what is stated in biology textbooks, the growth of fish doesn't slow down when and because they start spawning. In fact, their growth accelerates after they reproduce, according to a new ...

A group of animal biologists and chemists at the Institute of Transformative Bio-Molecules (ITbM) at Nagoya University in central Japan, in collaboration with Toyota Boshoku Corporation and Niigata ...

A new peer-reviewed research paper, authored by Shedd Aquarium and published in Journal of Great Lakes Research, assesses the fish species that spawn in the Chicago River to sustain and support ...

Fish spawning aggregations (FSAs) are predictable congregations of conspecific fishes at specific sites and times for reproduction. These events underpin the replenishment of many commercially and ...

A new study provides the first detailed documentation of a shallow-water fish diving 450 feet deep to spawn. Uncovering this very rare spawning behavior in bonefish (Albula vulpes) is unprecedented.

A leap of faith : the evolution of beach spawning in fishes -- Surf, sand, and beach : physical conditions of shore habitats for fishes -- Locals only : beach-spawning behavior in resident intertidal ...

Using active acoustic telemetry and sonar data, a study provides the first detailed documentation of a shallow water fish diving 450 feet deep to spawn. Prior research has shown that bonefish dive ...

Although air and water temperatures are still relatively cool, longer days and increasing air temperatures are slowly warming area lakes. Increasing lake temperatures begin to stimulate natural ...

The success of the test has proven that mature individuals in the artificially bred Yangtze sturgeon population have the ...

At the end of April and into early May, rising water temperatures can start to push coarse fish towards spawning, but this is not something that happens by the date on a calendar. A shallow, sheltered ...

Striped bass reproduction in the Hudson River has now fallen short for the third year in a row, a troubling trend that state officials say could lead to fewer catchable fish in the years ahead. The ...

Animal biologists and chemists have identified the pheromone involved in the mechanism that triggers puffer fish to spawn on beaches using moonlight. A group of animal biologists and chemists at the ...
