A silvering index for the Japanese eel Anguilla japonica (2007, background): “For the European eel, Anguilla anguilla, the silvering process has been divided into two (e.g., Pankhurst 1982), three (Durif et al. 2000; Feunteun et al. 2000; Acou et al. 2005), or five stages (Durif et al. 2005).”
Impact of silvering stage, age, body size and condition on reproductive potential of the European eel (2006, positive): “The initial stage of eels relative to the silvering process was determined using body length, Wb, fin length and Dm measured at their arrival on site according to the classification system described by Durif et al. (2005) and Durif & Elie (in press).”
Spawning Migration of the European Eel (2009, methodology): “From this five stages (F-I to F-V) for females and two stages for males were based on four easy to measure external parameters (length, weight, eye diameter, and pectoral fin length), predicting the stage with an accuracy of 82% (Durif et al. 2005).”
Silver Eel Migration and Behaviour (2009, background): “Durif et al. (2005) also hypothesized that photoperiod (or the decrease in temperature) activates the last stages of the silvering process in a similar way that these environmental factors affect smolting in Salmonids.”
Swimming performance of silver eels is severely impaired by the swim-bladder parasite Anguillicola crassus (2007, neutral): “According to the classification of Durif et al. (2005), the experimental eels in this study were residents (FII) or pre-migrants (FIII), and 40% were active migrants (FV).”
Migration pattern of silver eel (Anguilla anguilla, L.) in an obstructed river system (2008, background): “Indeed, eels migrate after they metamorphose into silver eels (Acou et al. 2005; Durif et al. 2005; van Ginneken et al. 2007).”
Silvering of European eel (Anguilla anguilla L.): seasonal changes of morphological and metabolic parameters (2007, methodology): “Based on principal component analysis (PCA) some of the morphological and physiological characteristics associated with silvering were characterised using the following parameters: body length, eye index, fin index, condition factor, gonad weight, liver weight, gut weight, gonadotropine and growth h”
