| Title: | Cyprinodon variegatus offspring growth rate from parental contribution experiments conducted on wild caught Atlantic specimens during 2014 (NCEI Accession 0278874) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected at shoreside Eastern United States during deployment Mangel_2014 from 2014-01-01 to 2014-12-31. These data include growth and sex. The instruments used to collect these data include Aquarium, Camera, Salinity Sensor, Scale, and digital thermometer. These data were collected by Dr Stephan Munch and Dr Susan Sogard of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Dr Marc Mangel of University of California-Santa Cruz as part of the "Beyond maternal effects: Transgenerational plasticity in thermal performance (ThermalTGP)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-02-10. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Offspring growth rate from the parental contribution experiment Dataset Description: Offspring growth rate from the parental contribution experiment. |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: We caught wild juvenile sheepshead minnows (Cyprinodon variegatus) from South Carolina (SC), Maryland (MD) and Connecticut (CT) in mid-August in 2014. All fish were transferred to acclimation aquaria at 24 deg C at the NOAA Fisheries Science Center, Santa Cruz, California. These temperatures represent the range experienced by sheepshead minnows from SC, MD and CT during a normal non-breeding season. Daily care followed standard protocols (Cripe et al. 2009, Salinas and Munch 2012), including ad libitum feeding of TetraMin flakes (Tetra Holding, Blacksburg, VA, USA). Salinity was maintained at 20 ppt, but was reduced to 10 ppt for two days prior to egg collection. The photoperiod was 14L:10D. Each day we changed 10% of the total volume of water. For the experiments of thermal transgenerational plasticity, all eggs were divided in half and transferred to either same temperature with parent or different temperature with parent: for example, if we collected eggs from 26 deg C parents, then a half of eggs were at 26 deg C and another half of eggs were at 32 deg C. Upon hatching we randomly selected up to four larvae from each treatment group. We measured standard body length from photographs of the fish obtained with a Canon 40D digital camera with Image J (Rasband 2016). At the end of experiment, we measured wet-mass, and them removed and weighted the testes and gonad. |
