Figures
- Fig. 1. Brood size, offspring survivorship and growth of young pair parent seahorses Hippocampus erectus at first 6 successive births.
1st (n = 21 broods), 2nd (n = 16), 3rd (n = 15), 4th (n = 12), 5th (n = 11) and 6th (n = 10), respectively. Different superscripts indicate the significant difference among the treatments (P<0.05).
- Fig. 2. The relationships between brood size and brood pouch length.
Scatter-plots and linear regression lines for the relationships between brood size and brood pouch length of male seahorses Hippocampus erectus (95% confidence bands); between brood size and the trunk length of females (95% confidence bands) for the first 6 successive births.
- Fig. 3. Brood size and offspring survivorship under different ages.
Brood size and offspring survivorship under different ages (M1: F1, M2: F1, M1: F2 and M2: F2) of pair parent seahorses Hippocampus erectus. Different superscripts indicate the significant difference among the treatments (P<0.05). M1, 1-year old male seahorse; F1, 1-year old female seahorse; M2, two years old male seahorse; F2, two years old female seahorse.
- Fig. 4. Brood size of four successive births by male seahorses Hippocampus erectus in the two groups (TR-1, TR-2).
In TR-1 groups: male and female seahorses were cultured together (broods per birth: n = 10, 10, 9 and 8); in TR-2 groups: females were isolated (n = 11, 9, 9 and 8) (ANOVA-Tukey HSD analysis: n = 74, F7, 66 = 0.89, P = 0.513; 95% confidence bands).
- Fig. 5. Survivorship and frequency distribution.
Survivorship and frequency distribution by standard body length growth comparison of juvenile seahorses Hippocampus erectus in TR-1 and TR-2 after 5-week culture.

Seven things that shaped preLights in 2019
As 2020 gets well and truly underway, join us as we look back at seven things that shaped preLights in 2019. From launching preLists to getting nominated for an award, it was an exciting year!
Catch up with our first authors in the latest interviews. Meghan Barrett, Katherine Fiocca, Anand Singh, Hagen Gegner and Ling Wang discuss the implications of their research, life as an early-career researcher and their next steps.
Research by Gegner et al. uses targeted metabolomics and physiological measurements to explain the increased bleaching resistance of symbiotic Aiptasia exposed to high salinity.
