The Œgrowth-mortality¹ hypothesis, which holds that larger and/or faster growing individuals
will have a higher probability of survival, currently includes 3 functional mechanisms …

Three growth-based survival mechanisms were tested for multiple cohorts of Japanese
anchovy (Engraulis japonicus) larvae in Sagami Bay. Through otolith microstructure …

Growth-selective predation mortality was demonstrated for postlarval Japanese anchovy
Engraulis japonicus in field research. The larval anchovy and their predatory fish were …

Stage duration and growth rate during the late larval stage can be key parameters of
recruitment dynamics in the Japanese anchovy Engraulis japonicus in the Kuroshio-Oyashio …

Predator-specific growth-selective predation on larval Japanese anchovy Engraulis
japonicus was demonstrated by comparing growth rates between the larvae ingested by …

Based on the relationship between otolith and somatic growth rates, we examined the effect
of growth and developmental rates on survival during larval and early juvenile stages in …

The Œgrowth-selective predation¹ hypothesis was revisited for larval Japanese anchovy
Engraulis japonicus, focusing on larval cannibalism by juveniles and larval predation by …

Do disparate mechanisms determine growth rates of fish larvae in the different regions? The
relationship between growth rates and environmental factors (sea temperature and food …

With data sampled from 2003 to 2006, this study presents the effects of temperature, food
availability (C), and body size on the somatic growth rate ̂ g (mm day− 1) and on the size …

Three concepts based on size, time and growth rate are contained in the functional
mechanisms of the 'growth–mortality'hypothesis, and are known as the 'bigger is …
