Life-History Characteristics and Fishery Dynamics of Red Drum (<i>Sciaenops ocellatus</i>), in the North-Central Gulf of Mexico
<p>Red Drum (<em>Sciaenops ocellatus</em>) are highly targeted recreationally in the Gulf of Mexico, and support a small commercial fishery in Mississippi. Despite their popularity, the stock is assessed using data limited approaches that necessitate accurate life history information. I estimated …

Red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) Habitat Use in an Urban System; Behavior of Reintroduced Fish in Bayou St. John, New Orleans
… I tested the ability of reintroduced red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) to survive in this system and assessed their habitat use and behavior. I tracked 29 red drum fitted with external acoustic radio transmitters to determine if they could survive the degraded habitats and determine their general …

Regulation of elements of the thyroid hormone and corticosteroid systems by stress, hormone treatment, and atrazine during ontogeny of red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus)
… and corticosteroid (CS) systems in red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus). Basal cortisol production was first detected 3 days post-hatch (DPH) and a cortisol stress response was present from 6 DPH forward. Changes in steroidogenic enzyme mRNA (CYP11B and CYP21) levels did not correlate with these …

Reassessment of the Red Drum Stock in Mississippi Coastal Waters: The Role of Ages 3-5 Year-Class Fish
<p>Red Drum, <em>Sciaenops ocellatus</em>, are highly sought after by sport fishermen in Mississippi coastal waters. In 2016, Mississippi anglers made over 180,000 fishing trips targeting Red Drum, making it the second most targeted marine species. The current Fishery Management Plan of the Gulf of …

Identifying genetic variation in candidate genes for heat stress and association thereof with growth performance in dusky kob (Argyrosomus japonicus)
… species from different temperature habitats (Sciaenops ocellatus and Larimichthys crocea) converge with each other. Across all six protein trees, the species from the family Sciaenidae cluster together in a monophyletic clade, distinct from the others species examined, supporting the …

Biology, Captive Propagation, and Feasibility of Pearl Culture in the Pink Heelsplitter (Potamilus Alatus) (Say, 1817) (Bivalvia: Unionidae)
… males during field collections. The red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) was identified as a new fish host for P. alatus, as 48 active juveniles were transformed by this species, which is not a natural host. Four glochidia were observed on the fins versus 2,307 on the gills of five red drum. …

Fish Assemblage Dynamics and Red Drum Habitat Selection in Bayou St. John and Associated Urban Waterways located within the City of New Orleans, Louisiana
<p>Bayou St. John (BSJ) and City Park Lakes and Lagoons (CPLL) are urban waterways in New Orleans, Louisiana. I studied habitat selection of red drum in BSJ, and fish assemblage change in BSJ and CPLL over 40 years. Temperature was found to be the best predictor of red drum habitat selection in …
