Figure 5. Blood plasma vitellogenin concentrations of tripletail captured near Jekyll Island, GA, USA from March to August 2009 and 2010. Females are represented by the triangles and males are represented by open circles. Reproductive phases are represented by Imm- immature, Dev- developing, SC- spawning capable, Regress- regressing, and Regen- regenerating.
Figure 6. Mean plasma vitellogenin concentrations (mug/ml) for (A) female (n = 77) and (B) male (n = 98) tripletail captured near Jekyll Island, GA, USA from March to August 2009 and 2010. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals.
Figure 7. Comparison of plasma vitellogenin and gonadosomatic index values across reproductive phases for (A) female (n=77) and (B) male (n=98) tripletail captured near Jekyll Island, GA, USA during March to August 2009 and 2010. Vitellogenin means are represented by triangles and GSI mean values are represented by circles. Error Bars represent 95% confidence intervals. Reproductive phases are represented by Imm- immature, Dev- developing, SC- spawning capable, Regress- regressing, and Regen- regenerating
