“…Additionally, the capital breeding strategy and the short spawning season support determinacy, as these are characteristics that have been related to species that set their potential number of vitellogenic oocytes well ahead of spawning (McBride et al, ). In the southern blue whiting Micromesistius australis Norman 1937, a closely‐related species from the southern‐hemisphere, the reproductive strategy (spawning frequency, batch fecundity) has been described, supporting a determinate fecundity type (Macchi et al, ). However, regional variability or geographic gradients can also be expected, due to the phenotypic plasticity of these traits (Morgan & Rideout, ).…”

“…Egg fertility was calculated by total fecundity. At the beginning of the ovulation period, the eggs were taken from the mature gonads of the individuals, the numbers of eggs in the ovaries were estimated and the fecundity was calculated by using the gravimetric method (Hunter, Lo, & Leong, 1985;Murua, Kraus, Saborido-Rey, Witthames, Thorsen, & Junquera, 2003;Macchi et al, 2005). Individual fecundity-length and fecundity-weight were correlated.…”

“…Our observations for Red Porgy during year two are aligned with a common pattern among batch-spawning species. Studies of the Yellowfin Tuna Thunnus albacares (Schaefer 1998), Baltic Sprat Sprattus sprattus balticus (Kraus and Köster 2004), Southern Blue Whiting Micromesistius australis (Macchi et al 2005), and Spotted Seatrout Cynoscion nebulosus (LowerreBarbieri et al 2009) each observed an increase in p with TL, while studies of the Gag Mycteroperca microlepis (Collins et al 1998) and Ballyhoo Hemiramphus brasiliensis (McBride and Thurman 2003) found that p increased with age. Temporal variation in this pattern, as was observed in our study, may also be common given that (1) Gags only showed a p-TL relationship during one of three study years (Collins et al 1998) and (2) the pattern was evident for Baltic Sprat during 3 of 4 months (Kraus and Köster 2004 (DeMartini and Fountain 1981).…”
