Unravelling the drivers of variability in body condition and reproduction of the European sardine along the Atlantic-Mediterranean transition

Body condition and reproduction data are broadly used to assess the health status of fish because of its implications for recruitment and ecosystem structure. Sardina pilchardus is a small pelagic distributed throughout both Mediterranean and Eastern Atlantic. Seasonal trend analysis of energy stora...

Sardina pilchardus is a small pelagic distributed throughout both Mediterranean and Eastern Atlantic. Seasonal trend analysis of energy storage and reproduction was carried out in sardines from two areas along the Atlantic-Mediterranean transition: Southern Portugal-Gulf of Cádiz (POR-GC) (Atlantic Ocean) and Alboran Sea (Alb) (Mediterranean Sea) from 2019 to 2021. Energetic condition was estimated using tissue and mesenteric fat content, hepatosomatic index (HSI), and the relative condition factor (Kn). Sex, reproductive developmental stage, and gonadosomatic index (GSI) were also obtained. In addition, the oceanographic and meteorological characteristics of the areas were analysed. Results showed that seasonal Kn, tissue and mesenteric fat content, and HSI values of POR-GC specimens exceeded Alb's with summer arrival, period in which sardine acquires reserves to allocate them to reproduction. These differences could be associated to greater productivity of the former area mainly due to rivers discharges and trade winds intensification during summer (from July to September). Furthermore, gonad maturation of POR-GC stock occurred before the Alb. However, no spawning capable individuals were identified until February in POR-GC. In contrast, in Alb it was observed a remarkable fraction of spawning capable and active spawner individuals in October. We hypothesized the migration of mature individuals from POR-GC to the spawning areas located in the Alb. Seasonal genetic population studies are required to untangle it and reliably evaluate the environmental effect on the stocksWe want to thank the funding support to the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (RTI2018-097544-B-I00, ‘ConSarVar’, I+D+i Retos de Investigación), as well as to the Fons Europeu Marítim i de la Pesca (FEMP) and the Agency for Management of University and Research Grants (AGAUR) of the Generalitat de Catalunya (Ajuts per a la contractació de personal investigador novell (FI-2020)).
