Differential growth of largemouth bass in West Point Reservoir

- Environmental Science
- 1 March 1980
Growth of the 1977 year class of largemouth bass at West Point Reservoir was highly variable and a clearly bimodal length-frequency distribution evident by fall 1977 was not a result of disruption of spawning by temperature or water level fluctuations.
Effects of Water Level Manipulation on Abundance, Mortality, and Growth of Young-of-Year Largemouth Bass in West Point Reservoir, Alabama-Georgia

- 1 July 1984
Water level manipulation was examined as a potential management technique for increasing recruitment of largemouth bass in a reservoir where prey availability and utilization were major factors influencing the largemouthbass population.
An Evaluation of the Roving Creel Survey with Nonuniform Probability Sampling

Abstract A roving creel survey with nonuniform probability sampling was conducted on West Point Reservoir, Georgia, for 24 months. The sampling design is described in detail. The assumption that…

The factors activating and/ or inhibiting the motility of intact and/or demembranated spermatozoa of common carp and paddlefish as teleostean and chondrostean models using methods of sperm dememBRanation are summarized.
Variation in the Growth of the Initial Year Class of Largemouth Bass in West Point Reservoir, Alabama and Georgia
- W. Shelton, W. D. Davies, T. A. King, T. J. Timmons
- Environmental Science
- 1 March 1979
By fall (September-October), one segment of the population had grown rapidly but the other segment had grown little and a bimodal length-frequency distribution was evident and a shortage of available prey for the smaller fish was considered to be the cause of the growth disparity.
Exotic species in global aquaculture - a review
- W. Shelton, S. Rothbard
- Environmental Science
- 2006
Exotic and transplanted fishes that are widespread today will represent a greater proportion of future aquaculture production because technology for their culture is already well known and can readily be applied, and because these species are more easily domesticated and genetically improved.
Motility of spermatozoa from shovelnose sturgeon and paddlefish
- O. Linhart, S. Mims, W. Shelton
- Biology
- 1 November 1995
The spermatozoa in the seminal plasma from shovelnose sturgeon Scaphirhynchus platorynchus and paddlefish Polyodon spathula were immotile with only a few spontaneously motile spermatozoa for 5-10 and…

It is demonstrated that potassium (5-15 mmol l(-1)) inhibits demembranated spermatozoa, thus, initiation of movement in paddlefish spermarozoa is under the reciprocal control of potassium and calcium ion concentrations.
