- 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.
