Characteristics of two populations of Thai river sprat Clupeichthys aesarnensis from man-made reservoirs in Thailand and Laos, with aspects of gonad development

Short‐lived fishes: Annual and multivoltine strategies

“…Clupeids (Clupeiformes) with a maximum lifespan shorter than a year in the wild (Table 3) are mostly found in tropical and subtropical marine environments (Hoedt, 2002; Struhsaker & Uchiyama, 1976), but are also reported from freshwaters (Morioka et al., 2019). Short‐lived clupeids are small pelagic species feeding mostly on zooplankton.…”

“…Short‐lived clupeids are small pelagic species feeding mostly on zooplankton. The major source of adult mortality in short‐lived clupeids is predation by larger pelagic fish (Blaber et al., 1990; Milton et al., 1991) and commercial fishery also significantly contributes to their mortality (Milton et al., 1991; Morioka et al., 2019). Lifespan data from the short‐lived clupeids are available because of their economic importance for human consumption and as a tuna‐baitfish (Milton et al., 1993).…”

“…Most of the short-lived goby species reproduce repeatedly and retain the male parental care typical for other gobies (Depczynski & Bellwood, 2006;Patzner et al, 2011). in the wild (Table 3) are mostly found in tropical and subtropical marine environments (Hoedt, 2002;Struhsaker & Uchiyama, 1976), but are also reported from freshwaters (Morioka et al, 2019). Short-lived clupeids are small pelagic species feeding mostly on zooplankton.…”

Relationship between Salinity and Histamine Accumulation in Padaek, a Salt-Fermented Freshwater Fish Paste from Laos

“…For padaek production, the fish is fermented with salt and rice bran at ambient temperature. Although it is considered edible after 2-3 months of fermentation, [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] months is required to enhance its palatability. Its long shelf life and abundance of free amino acids such as glutamate and lysine are distinctive features of the product.…”

Age and growth estimates from three hard parts of the spotted catfish, Arius maculatus (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes: Ariidae), in Songkhla Lake, Thailand’s largest natural lake

“…Age can be estimated by several methods but counting natural growth rings of hard body parts is the most common and is generally reliable (Vitale et al 2019). Many calcified structures, both inner parts (e.g., otoliths, vertebrae, and urohyal bone) as well as outer parts (e.g., scales, opercular bones, spines, and fin rays) have been shown to reliably reflect the age of fishes (Campana 2001;Morioka et al 2019;Phomikong et al 2019). As many hard parts are available for age determination, a comparison of multiple structures to determine the most suitable ones for a particular species or population is always recommended (Zhu et al 2017).…”
