Resumen: | Nephrops norvegicus represents one of the most important commercial species for EU trawling fisheries. I investigated the existence of different rhythmic behavioural patterns in 52 Nephrops with an innovative actographic method that is able to discriminate 3 geo-referenced components of burrow emergence activity. Recognized patterns were correlated with sex and carapace length and obtained results were extrapolated to the field. The experimental conditions were: 12-12 LD cycle; monochromatic blue (480-nm) light intensity (0.1 lx). The methodological approach produced good time series of locomotor data, since arrhythmic animals are few (8%). Results indicated that Nephrops possesses an unexpected plastic exogenous behavioural rhythm, subdivided into 3 categories related to burrow influence (i.e. Burrow-centred, 60%; Burrow-oriented, 17%; Poorly burrow-oriented, 15%). Sex and carapace length did not influence the expression of reported rhythmic behavioural patterns, but we individuated some differences in overall locomotor activity among sexes. Nephrops should be considered a good model to investigate rhythmic behavioural patterns of deep-sea crustacean decapods. That investigation revealed its potentiality in aquaculture practice (feeding, reproduction and manipulation) and fishery assessment (extrapolation of laboratory data to the Nephrops stock management) | Descripción: | Trabajo final presentado por Valerio Sbragaglia para el Máster de Acuicultura impartido por la Universitat de Barcelona (UB), la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) y la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), realizado bajo la dirección del Dr. Jacopo Aguzzi y el Dr. José Antonio García del Arco del Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC).-- 20 pages, 11 figures, 2 tables | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/250013 |
