Phenotypic variation and associated predation risk of juvenile common carp Cyprinus carpio.

Journal of fish biology - 1 Jan 2012

Weber M J, Rounds K D, Brown M L

Abstract excerpt

Juvenile common carp Cyprinus carpio were collected from 10 lakes with variable predator abundance over 4 months to evaluate if morphological defences increased with increasing predation risk. Cyprinus carpio dorsal and pectoral spines were longer and body depth was deeper when predators were more abundant, with differences becoming more pronounced from July to October. To determine if morphological plasticity...
