摘要

The consequences of fisheries-induced evolution on stock productivity and yield depend, to a large extent, on the general prospects for growthand survival. Here, we compare the selection pressures imposed by two distinct patterns of exploitation—principally targeting spawning or nonspawningaggregations—on age at maturity among 15 Canadian stocks of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) that have exhibited a consistentpattern of length-at-age responses to common large-scale environmental drivers since the 1960s. In accordance with expectations for maturitydependentharvesting, the establishment of a spawner-targeted fishery in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence coincided with a shift towardsdelayed maturity in both resident stocks, whereas stocks elsewhere subject to fisheries that also exploited juveniles more commonly exhibitedtrends towards earlier maturity. Despite these differences, we find that environmentally driven changes in length at maturation, combined withtotal mortality, may overwhelmingly determine lifetime reproductive success and possibly fitness. By linking phenotypic changes experiencedin the juvenile period to simple correlates of egg production in mature age classes, our study highlights the importance of managing fisheries inthe context of ubiquitous but contrasting environmental constraints on life histories.
