Maturation Spawning and Larviculture of Atlantic Croaker (Micropogonias undulatus) at Low Salinity
<p>Atlantic Croaker is a popular baitfish among anglers targeting a variety of gamefish in the Gulf of Mexico. Aquaculture of this species could help meet the demand for Croaker, especially during winter when wild-caught Croaker are unavailable. Currently, Croaker aquaculture involves broodstock …

Bioenergetic and ecological consequences of diet variability in Atlantic croaker Micropogonias undulatus
Atlantic croaker Micropogonias undulatus is a commercially and ecologically important bottom-associated fish that occurs in marine and estuarine systems from Cape Cod, MA to Mexico. I documented the temporal and spatial variability in the diet of Atlantic croaker in Chesapeake Bay and found that in …

Clostridium botulinum toxin development in refrigerated reduced oxygen packaged Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus)
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of storage temperature and film oxygen transmission rate (OTR) on toxin development by Clostridium botulinum in refrigerated raw vacuum packaged croaker fillets, and to determine if toxin development precedes microbiological and/or organoleptic …

Investigations of the Trophic Relationships, Feeding Ecology and Feeding Behavior of Larval Spot, <i>Leiostomus Xanthurus</i> Lacepede, and Atlantic Croaker, <i>Micropogonias Undulatus</i> (Linnaeus) (Pisces:Sciaenidae)
… (Leiostomus xanthurus) and Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus) larvae was evaluated and compared. Nutritional condition of spot larvae from the Gulf of Mexico was high, with no larvae classified as starving. This was probably due to an inability to sample starving larvae at sea because …

Analyses of Indices of Abundance for Important Groundfish Species in the Northern Gulf of Mexico from 1987-2009, Relative to Shrimp Bycatch; with Age and Growth of Three Sciaenid Species
… the selected Sciaenids were aged, but only <em>Micropogonias undulatus</em> was able to be used for a comparative analysis to available historic data to determine changes in age and growth from the peak of shrimping in 1985 (Barger) to 2009. There was a statistical difference in age and growth …

INTERANNUAL VARIABILITY IN MORPHOMETRIC CONDITION OF LARVAL FISH AS A FUNCTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES IN BEAUFORT, NC
… four North Carolinian fishes: Atlantic Croaker (Micropogonias undulatus), Mojarra (Eucinostomus sp.), White Mullet (Mugil curema), and Broad Striped Anchovy (Anchoa hepsetus). All species had some aspect of their morphometric condition influenced by an environmental or ecological variable. …

Ecosystem Services of Restored Oyster Reefs in a Chesapeake Bay Tributary: Abundance and Foraging of Estuarine Fishes
… (Bairdiella chrysoura), and Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus). Overall catch in oyster reef habitat was reduced relative to unstructured bottom, but species-level responses to habitat type varied. Stomach fullness trends varied by species but were associated with habitat type. Benthic …

Modeling the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals on Atlantic croaker: understanding biomarkers and predicting population responses
A number of environmental stressors have been shown to interfere with reproductive and behavioral processes of fish by interfering with endocrine function. Most biomarkers of endocrine disturbance tend to be static measurements from dynamic systems making them difficult to evaluate within the …
