When to count your eggs: Is fecundity in Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides W.) down-regulated?
Fecundity in several fish species is subject to down-regulation by atresia so if fecundity is estimated many months before spawning, this will be an overestimation of the realised fecundity (actual number of eggs spawned). In order to get accurate measurements of fecundity it is important to have kn...

Fecundity in several fish species is subject to down-regulation by atresia so if fecundity is estimated many months before spawning, this will be an overestimation of the realised fecundity (actual number of eggs spawned). In order to get accurate measurements of fecundity it is important to have knowledge on when potential fecundity (estimated fecundity at time of sampling) closely resembles the realised fecundity. Down-regulation of fecundity for Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides W.) was assessed using fish caught off East Greenland 1998, 1999 and 2000. The fish caught in 1998 and 1999 were in an early and late stage of vitellogenesis respectively of the same maturation cycle. The fish caught in 2000 were also at an early stage of vitellogenesis.
