• Sommario/riassunto: Organisms release pheromones into their environments to allow them to communicate with other members of their species. Pheromones are of increasing interest in both basic and applied aspects of fish biology. Fish Pheromones and Related Cues provides a timely synthesis of this growing body of pheromone research exploring everything from how these chemical signals are processed to the potential application of pheromone research on fish culture and conservation. Fish Pheromones and Related Cues opens with a useful overview of fish pheromone research. Chapters then examine the biological impor
