Initial effects of the exploitation of walleye, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum (Mitchill) on the boreal percid community of Henderson Lake, Northwestern Ontario
(1982)
The effect of large scale exploitation of walleye Stizostedion vitreum
vitreum on the boreal percid community of Henderson Lake, northwestern
Ontario, was studied from 1979 to 1981. Investigations centered on the two
major ...
Effects of an episodic removal scheme on a walleye, stizostedion vitreum vitreum, population
(1985)
A pulse fishing scheme, applied over a three year period (1980
to 1982), deliberately removed 3226 walleye from Henderson Lake,
Ontario, causing the stock to collapse. The objective of the removal
was not only to seek ...
Comparison of the yellow perch, Perca flavescens Mitchell, populations in Henderson Lake and Savanne Lake, Ontario
(1984)
Yellow perch (Perca flavescens) in Henderson Lake exhibit
stunted growth and poor condition at all ages. In addition, they have
lower fecundity, longer life span, slower maturation rate, and greater
survival compared ...
Heavy metal accumulation in a feather moss, Pleurozium schreberi, and soils in Northwestern Ontario
(1977)
It has been determined that carpet-forming mosses are
good indicators of heavy metal deposition, since they are
dependent on their supply of nutrients from above rather than
from the substrate. Samples of the common ...
Behaviour and reproductive success of female-female pairs of Ring-billed gulls (Larus delawarenis), Granite Island
(1982)
Female-female pairs of Ring-billed Gulls were studied on
Granite Island, northern Lake Superior, during the breeding
seasons of 1979 and 1980. In 1979 the colony consisted of approximately
2400 pairs with 99 nests (4.1%) ...
Behavioral bioassay examining the effects of ethanol on flagfish reproduction
(1983)
A behavioral bioassay method was developed to examine
the effects of ethanol on the reproductive success and
behavior of flagfish (Jordanella floridae). Reproductive
behavior was divided into eight categories; egg ...
Mating behaviour, spermatophore structure, ecology and systematics of the Cicindela splendida group (Coleoptera: Cicindelidae)
(1988)
Observations of copulating pairs of conspecific and
interspecific individuals of Cicindela splendida Hentz and
Cicindela limbalis Klug revealed behaviour similar to that
previously described for Pseudoxych.ila tarsalis ...
Annual production and population dynamics of a relatively unexploited walleye, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum (Mitchill 1818), population in Savanne Lake, Ontario
(1979)
Most studies of the walleye have been conducted on highly
exploited populations. Savanne Lake in northwestern Ontario, and
having an area of 364.29 ha, was exploited until 1969, whereupon
it was designated a fish ...
Life history, habits and phylogenetic relationships of Ithycerus noveboracensis (Forster), (New York weevil) (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea)
(1979)
Larvae of Ithycerus are described for the first time. Ten
instars are identified with the possibility of more to be found.
The pupa remains unknown. Spiracular air tubes and orifices show
allometric growth and this, ...
Physiological outcomes of interleukin-6 in high fat diet and voluntary physical activity
(2014)
Insulin resistance is the principle step towards the progression of type 2 diabetes, and has been linked to increased circulating levels of cytokines, leading to chronic low-grade inflammation. Specifically, in chronic ...
