Interpopulation differences in growth rates and food conversion efficiencies of young Grand Banks and Gulf of Maine Atlantic cod (<i>Gadus morhua</i>)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Geographically separated Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) stocks in the northwest Atlantic exhibit life history variation and have been shown to differ genetically. The genetic and environmental contributions to phenotypic differences, however, have not yet been measured. We used common environment experiments to evaluate the importance of temperature on the observed growth variation between Grand Banks (GB) and Gulf of Maine (GOM) cod stocks. Larvae from the GB grew faster than GOM larvae at both 7 and 12°C. Growth rates of juveniles were not different, but GB juveniles had higher food conversion efficiencies than those from the GOM (at both ambient and warm temperatures). The results indicate that faster growth of GOM cod in the wild is not due to a higher genetic capacity for growth rate in GOM than in GB fish. The findings give evidence of genetically based phenotypic variation, which is in agreement with molecular studies on population differentiation in cod, and support the theory of countergradient variation in growth rates of larval fish.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
