Coexistence of behavioural types in an aquatic top predator: a response to resource limitation?

A Kobler, T Klefoth, T Mehner, R Arlinghaus - Oecologia, 2009 - Springer

Genetic differentiation between and within ecotypes of pike (Esox lucius) in the Baltic Sea

O Nordahl, P Koch‐Schmidt, J Sunde… - Aquatic …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Aquatic systems often lack physical boundaries for gene flow, but ecological and

Adaptations of early development to local spawning temperature in anadromous populations of pike (Esox lucius)

J Sunde, P Larsson, A Forsman - BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 - Springer
Background In the wake of climate change many environments will be exposed to increased
and more variable temperatures. Knowledge about how species and populations respond to …

evolution of body size and growth rate among populations, but most studies have focused …

Migration, growth patterns, and diet of pike (Esox lucius) in a river reservoir and its inflowing river

OT Sandlund, J Museth, S Øistad - Fisheries Research, 2016 - Elsevier
