Responsible genetic approach to stock restoration, sea ranching and stock enhancement of marine fishes and invertebrates (2017, background): “Even with a 1:1 sex ratio, other variables influence the numbers of offspring among families, including timing of gamete maturity, quality of gametes among parents and variation in fecundity because of parental size or genetic legacy (Keller and Reeve 1994; Hedgecock and Pudovkin 2011).”
Efficient ancestry and mutation simulation with msprime 1.0 (2021, background): “…underlying mathematical assumptions are violated; for example, in certain highly fecund organisms (Beckenbach 1994; Hedgecock 1994; A´rnason 2004; Hedgecock and Pudovkin 2011; Irwin et al. 2016; Vendrami et al. 2021), where individuals have the ability to produce numbers of offspring on the…”
Energy acquisition and allocation to egg production in relation to fish reproductive strategies (2014, background): “In particular, the fitness of the mean individual may not be representative of the subsequent pool of survivors, given that the numbers of successful spawners in any year are typically much, much smaller than actual population size (Hedgecock and Pudovkin 2011).”
