Growth, maturity and fecundity of female spotted wolffish Anarhichas minor in Icelandic waters
Fecundity, maturity and growth of spotted wolffish Anarhichas minor were studied in Icelandic waters. A total of 477 female A. minor were sampled. The time from the onset of the cortical alveolus stage until spawning was on average 5 years. The total length ( L T50 ) and age ( A 50 ) at 50% maturity...
