hybrids - Opis:
- Eco-ethology as expressed in migration patterns, abundance level, growth rates in river conditions, and reproductive behaviour in a controlled environment were investigated in natural common bream x roach and common bream x silver bream hybrids. From 2001 to 2003, hybrids and parental species were captured in a fish pass trap at the Lixhe dam on the Belgian Meuse river during their reproductive migration. The fish pass was checked 3 days a week and the water temperature was recorded hourly. The results showed that hybrids were less frequent but they had migrated during the same period and in the same environmental conditions as the parental species. Scale readings showed that the growth of hybrids was intermediate to the two parent species growth. In reproductive experiments between hybrids under controlled conditions, the female hybrid mated with one to two hybrid males. In reproductive experiments with hybrids mixed with parental species males, the female hybrid mated with male hybrid and male roach or male silver bream, but not with the male common bream. The succession of spawning episodes in hybrids were those recognised in parental species. Aggressive and territorial acts were observed among the males of these hybrids in a territory including a spawning substrate. This study has proven that the natural hybrids are eco-ethologically viable.
