Nutritional condition and otolith growth of Engraulis anchoita larvae: The comparison of two life traits indexes
Engraulis anchoita larvae were captured in 16 surveys carried out at a fixed sampling station (EPEA) in the Argentinean Sea between 2008 and 2017. Nutritional condition and growth of 214 anchovy larvae were estimated through RNA/DNA index and analysis of otolith microstructure. Standard length, deve...

Engraulis anchoita larvae were captured in 16 surveys carried out at a fixed sampling station (EPEA) in the Argentinean Sea between 2008 and 2017.
