Phenotype-environment association of the oxygen transport system in trimorphic European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus) populations

For the number of copepod transmitted parasites in whitefish, the base model containing length as explanatory variable had the lowest AIC (Table A1-15). The model containing

The two morphs appear to have a diet and habitat choice correlated to their gill raker num- bers: the sparsely-rakered morph predominantly having a benthic habitat and food

We hypothesized that the impact of the invader would affect the population biology (density, habitat choice, growth, size- and age-structure and size and age at maturation) of

Effects of an intensive fi shing pro- gramme on age structure, growth and parasite infection of stunted white fi sh (Coregonus lavaretus L. s.l.) in Stuorajavri, northern

Differences in morphology between whitefish from the three different lakes based on Canonical Variate Analyses (CVA) of (A) body shape versus lake, and (C) ten linear traits versus

Our study suggests an apparent breakdown of reproductive isolation between two sympatric European whitefish morphs over a relatively short time span of 15 years (i.e. within

3.Four patterns of gradually increasing population diversity described by gill raker number distributions of the studied whitefish populations: (a) monomorphic populations (n=14),
