Abstract |
Mature black crappies were exposed over winter in the laboratory to constant dissolved oxygen concentrations near 2.5, 4.0, 5.5, and 7.0 mg/liter. Starting on 26 April during a simulated spring-to-summer rise in water temperature, some were continued at the original oxygen concentrations while others were subjected to mean diel fluctuations ranging from 0.8 to 1.9 mg O2/liter above and below the original concentrations. Controls were maintained at concentrations near air saturation. No spawning occurred at the lowest fluctuating treatment of 1.8 to 4.1 mg/liter. This treatment also caused behavioral aberrations as the water temperature reached 20C. Successful spawning occurred during all other treatments. |
