Morphological divergence between three Arctic charr morphs - the significance of the deep-water environment.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-14)
Morphological divergence was evident among three sympatric morphs of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus (L.)) that are ecologically diverged along the shallow-, deep-water resource axis in a subarctic postglacial lake (Norway). The two deep-water (profundal) spawning morphs, a benthivore (PB-morph) and a piscivore (PP-morph), have evolved under identical abiotic conditions with constant low light ...
Ontogenetic dynamics of infection with Diphyllobothrium spp. cestodes in sympatric Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus (L.) and brown trout Salmo trutta L.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-12-23)
The trophic niches of Arctic charr and brown trout differ when the species occur in
sympatry
. Their
trophically transmitted parasit
es are expected to reflect these
differences.
Here
, we investigate how the infections
of
Diphyllobothrium dendriticum
and
Diphyllobothrium ditremum
differ between
charr and trout. These tapeworms use
copepods ...
