Fishery Induces Sperm Depletion and Reduction in Male Reproductive Potential for Crab Species under Male-Biased Harvest Strategy
Fig 6
Seasonal mean Vaso-Somatic Index (VSI) and standard errors for Metacarcinus edwardsii males from localities with contrasting fishery intensity.
Lines indicate mean (continuous) and confidence limit (95%, dashed) of VSI from just-mated laboratory males. Los Molinos and Calbuco are categorized as low fishery intensity and Ancud, Dalcahue and Quellon are categorized as high fishery intensity.
