Long-term change in a behavioural trait: truncated spawning distribution and demography in Northeast Arctic cod
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04)Harvesting may be a potent driver of demographic change and contemporary evolution, which both may have great impacts on animal populations. Research has focused on changes in phenotypic traits that are easily quantifiable ... -
Opposite selection on behavioural types by active and passive fishing gears in a simulated guppy Poecilia reticulata fishery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-03)This study assessed whether fishing gear was selective on behavioural traits, such as boldness and activity, and how this was related with a productivity trait, growth. Female guppies Poecilia reticulata were screened for ... -
Timing is everything: Fishing-season placement may represent the most important angling-induced evolutionary pressure on Atlantic salmon populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Fisheries-induced evolution can change the trajectory of wild fish populations by selectively targeting certain phenotypes. For important fish species like Atlantic salmon, this could have large implications for their ...
