Description
Summary:This dataset represents the identity (based on PCR results) of sciaenid eggs from the Gulf of Mexico Estuary near Port Aransas, Texas. Egg samples were collected from 20 August, 2020 through 8 March, 2022 from the research pier at UTMSI, located in the Aransas Pass inlet. Egg samples were collected bi-weekly during the Red Drum spawning season (August – December) and monthly outside the Red drum spawning season from two locations. Eggs were sorted by morphology to isolate sciaenid eggs and molecular PCR techniques were applied to subsamples of eggs to confirm the species identification. ...
