Maturity stages of shrimp (Pandalus borealis Krøyer 1838. Method for classification and description of characteristics
Pandalus borealis is a protandric hermaphrodite that shows a great variation in both age at sex change and in the proportion of males that become females. This plasticity is believed to be a phenotypic response to maximize individual reproductive success. Since 1992, we have classified all shrimp ta...
