Popis: | We studied the influences of female pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) length and growth (i.e., maternal effects) on the length of hatched and starved larvae as well as on larval starvation resistance in two different temperature conditions (mean temperatures 13.2 and 17.9 degrees C). The data included fertilised eggs and reared larvae from 21 individuals caught during the spawning season from eutrophic Lake Pyhajarvi in Finland. The length of the hatching larvae was dependent on female size but also on water temperature and on the potential energy the female had invested on reproduction. Maternal effects seemed to also influence the timing of larvae growth, and larvae that were large at hatching grew less on mere yolk sac reserves, and vice versa. Female length had a positive effect on the larval starvation resistance but only under cold conditions. The results suggest that higher temperature might reduce the advantage the larvae from large females get for starvation resistance. |
